Auto wrecking is a big business in Melbourne. And with good reason. Once a car has been in an accident, the cost of repairing it is very expensive and so, may not be worth it.
What do you do with your car when it no longer has a saleable value attached to it?
You get rid of it. Wreckers exist to take cars that can no longer be fixed – off your hands.
What they do with them is recycle their parts which they then on-sell to second-hand auto parts recyclers across Victoria.
The price they will pay you for your car will depend on its condition, of course. But the price a wrecker offers you for your car will always be better than what a used car yard will give you for it.
The beauty of selling your car to a wrecker is you don’t have to wait for days before you are paid. After the Chief Car Buyer at the Wrecking Yard has inspected your car, they’ll make you an offer on the spot. If you accept, they’ll pay you your cash immediately.
You should consider your car to be wrecked when its cost to repair exceeds its street price or value.
Usually, a car will be written off by insurance when its cost to repair is 65% or more of the Original Value of the car.
If a car costs $20,000, and its cost to repair is $13,000 or more – it is safe to scrap and sell it as junk. Value equation sourced from https://carbrain.com/Blog/auto-wrecking-from-a-to-z
