Some cars are past the point of fixing or even selling for parts. The engine is gone, the interior is torn out, or it has been picked apart over the years. To most buyers, it is worthless. To us, it is still worth something.
We are a junkyard at 700 Park St in Baytown, and for more than 10 years we have been buying scrap cars across the Houston area. Tell us what the car is and what is missing, and we will give you a price on the phone. If you say yes, we tow it away for free and pay you in cash.
GOOD TO KNOW
What Is the Difference Between a Junk Car and a Scrap Car?
People use these words in different ways, but here is a simple way to think about it. A junk car is a car that is not worth fixing, but it may still have good parts, like the engine, transmission, or doors. A scrap car is a car where most of the value is in the metal itself.
For you, the difference does not matter much. We buy both, and the process is the same. The only thing that changes is the price.
The price for a scrap car mostly comes down to a few things:
How heavy the vehicle is. More metal usually means more money.
Which parts are still on it and still worth something.
What scrap metal is selling for right now.
Scrap metal prices go up and down, sometimes from week to week, so a price from a few months ago may not be the price today. Call us for a current price on your car.
Why Not Take It to a Scrap Yard Yourself?
You can, but it is usually more work than people expect. A car that doesn’t run has to be towed, and towing costs money. Some yards won’t take a whole car, and some want you to drain the fluids or remove certain parts first.
With us, you skip all of that. We give you a price on the phone, tow the car for free, and pay you in cash at pickup.
Got a car that is only good for scrap? Call now and get your price in a few minutes.
We pick up scrap cars in Houston and about 30 miles around it, from our yard in Baytown. Pickup is free everywhere we serve, and in most cases we can come the same day.
You can sometimes make more by selling parts on your own, but it takes time, tools, and buyers. If you remove parts, just tell us what is gone when you call, since it changes the price.
