What’s The Best Way To Buy/Sell Car Parts?

How & Where Should You Sell Auto Parts?

Selling auto parts from an old vehicle is an effective way to get money fast. There is always a high demand for used auto parts that are in good condition. This is especially true for rare parts or parts that are harder to get for a good price. In this article we will cover how to sell your auto parts, where to sell them, and which auto parts will get you the most money. But before all of that, if you are in the Massachusetts area we would be happy to hop on a call with you to discuss any parts you are looking to sell or buy as well as our other services including recycling junk vehicles. 

Can You Make Money Selling Auto Parts?

Yes, selling your auto parts is a great way to make money. If you have an older vehicle or a vehicle that has been damaged that you are not planning to repair, selling the parts is an effective way to make money. One of the best ways to get the most for an old vehicle is to break it into parts so that you can get the most back. Dumping a car off at a recycling center is really only going to get you the cost of the raw metal they can get from your vehicle. But if you can find some parts and pieces that other buyers are looking to get, you can sell those first and sell the remaining section of the vehicle for scrap when you are done. In fact, one of the best ways to get the best price on an old vehicle is to work with a local auto parts dealer, they will know how to get the most out of your vehicle thanks to their years of experience and can take a lot of the hassle out of the process. They will break down your vehicle into salvageable parts and recycle the remainder and they will make sure you get great value for your car or truck. 

Where To Sell Your USed Car Parts

If you look online you will find a few different options on where and how to sell your auto parts. You really have two main options. You can either sell parts directly to buyers (either in-person or online) or you can sell to an auto parts dealer. There are pros and cons to both, although generally speaking if you are looking for a good return and less work on your end, it is easier to sell a large group of parts to a dealer in your area that can give you quick cash and get to work selling parts. Dealers have pre-existing relationships with local mechanics and other buyers so they are able to get returns on your parts faster than you might be able to sell them in-person or online. If you are going to sell parts in-person or online, you should understand what is going to be easier to sell. If you are selling either online or in-person the best things to sell are things that people can easily DIY the installation on. For example side mirrors, bumpers, grills, and other exterior parts are going to be easier to sell because they are easier to install compared to parts that are usually replaced and worked on by a mechanic. Again, the best recommendation is to work with a dealer since they will have a much easier time finding customers and getting the most for your vehicle’s parts and scrap metal.
