Daughter wrecked her car, and repairing it would cost more than it’s worth. She just has liability on it and it’s 8 years old. Will junkyards buy them? Advice?

Nope. Junkyards hate junk.




Seriously, you can donate it to bridge house for a tax donation. They will fix it over time and sell it.

They'll hand over $2-300 and come pick it up.

LZ is correct, as usual.

Call around and find a junk yard that wants to come get it.

Yep...junkyards will give you a few hundred bucks for it, if the title is clear. Always seems kind of odd to just throw your car away!

Yes, the front end is damaged, but she was able to drive it away from crash site. There’s got to be some value in its parts.

Sell it to a junkyard and use the money as a down payment to buy a good used car with collision insurance.
