5 Things I Wish I Knew Before Selling My First Junk Car
Are you getting ready to sell your junk car for the first time? Save yourself some time and energy and learn from my mistakes! Knowing these helpful tips can make sure you're getting paid top dollar and have a stress free experience!
Sell your car to a reputable company.
Ok, so the guy at the convenience store knows a guy who’ll offer you double the value your car is worth. Sounds too good to be true? That’s because it is! It is crucial that you sell your car to a licensed reputable company, check them out on Google, and read reviews. You could end up in a big, expensive legal battle if you are selling to unlicensed buyers.
You get paid more by going to a junkyard.
You would think that selling to a private party or dealership would get you more money. But the truth is you will make more money selling your unwanted car to a junkyard. Junkyards make money by selling individual parts and recycling the rest for scrap metal. They don’t care about the condition of your car and won’t lower your quote for every scratch they see.
You get paid more by having paperwork.
It is possible to sell your car without the proper paperwork like title, insurance, or registration. But that means more work on the buyer which means less money for you. If you have your proof of ownership, you can transfer it to the buyer — fast and easy. If your title is missing, don't panic! Call or visit your local Department of Motor Vehicles and they can get you everything you need to sell your junk car.
