If you’ve been conducting a Google search for Salvage Yards Near Me, Junkyard Near Me, and or Auto Salvage Near Me you’ve probably come across Robertson’s Auto Salvage. However, you may not be aware of the fact that Robertson’s specializes in three (3) types of recycling in order to maximize the value of your junk car. So, what are the three (3) types of recycling? It starts with ferrous metal recycling. That involves melting down the iron and steel in your automobile until it reaches a liquid state.

Once that happens the liquid metal is purified and then compacted into solid blocks or beams. At that point, the metal is utilized for manufacturing use. On the other hand, non-ferrous metal recycling involves recycling metals that are not made of iron or steel including aluminum, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, titanium, cobalt, and chromium to name a few. Once the various types of non-ferrous metals are sorted they can be individually recycled and used across a vast amount of applications and industries.

Last but certainly not least, is wrecked, salvage, and junk vehicle recycling. In essence, that means Robertson’s Auto Salvage will remove each and every usable part from your junk car. This includes any and all of the hardware, tires, exterior and interior panels, wiring, and lighting. Robertson’s will then repurpose these parts and sell them to people who need replacement auto parts for their vehicles.

If you’re interested in selling your junk vehicle, please contact Robertson’s Auto Salvage today. We have been supplying local businesses and consumers’ quality used automotive parts since 1969. We even offer extended warranties on many used auto parts.

U Pull It; A Growing Industry

Post by: andrew capobianco June 12, 2021 0 Comments

Did you know that the average price for a new vehicle in 2020 was $37,876 according to the Kelley Blue Book? That is a price that many hard-working Americans simply cannot afford. This is why many people turn to the used car market. If you can afford a certified pre-owned vehicle that is backed by a manufacturer’s warranty, that’s a good way to go. However, those vehicles are typically only a few years old and are still expensive. So, plenty of consumers turn to older used vehicles.

If you’re in that position then you should expect and plan for the fact that your used vehicle will need repairs. If it doesn’t need repairs right away, it will in the near future. Since you’re buying a used car to save money, it also makes financial sense to figure out a way to save money on the repairs. Saving money on auto parts is your best bet. New auto parts are incredibly expensive. That’s why many people purchase used auto parts from junkyards.

A growing trend in the junkyard business that will save you even more money on used auto parts is something called U-Pull-It or Pick and Pull. U-Pull-It junk auto salvage yards typically contain hundreds or even thousands of used junkyard vehicles. Consumers typically pay an entry fee and have complete access to the lot. In essence, you’re allowed to browse through all the vehicles and pull or extract any of the parts that you want. When you exit the lot, you pay for the parts that you have pulled. You can typically save upwards of 80% on the used auto parts by pulling them yourself.

Robertson’s Auto Salvage U-Pull-It yard is now open for business. Our new four (4) acre self-service lot contains a wide variety of makes and models both foreign and domestic. Simply pull the part you need and save money!

How Much Money Can You Get For Your Used Auto Parts and Scrap Metal?

Post by: andrew capobianco June 12, 2021 0 Comments

If your junk car happens to be a rare vehicle, those same used auto parts can be even more valuable. If the used auto parts in your junk car are hard to find or in high demand it can make them more valuable as well. The bottom line is the higher the demand the higher the value. If there are other people who have the same car and they need frequent repairs the demand for your used auto parts is high. However, if the used auto parts for your car are not sold often. Some working used auto parts are worth more money than others.

It’s a sad situation. The truth of the matter is that your car has finally died and it’s no longer worth the money to keep having it fixed. That means you will need to start looking for another car to purchase. You can go the new car route or the used car route. Either way, your money will be better spent than those constant and costly trips to the mechanic shop. That being stated, your old used car still has value. In essence, it’s worth money even if it no longer drives. Did you know that you could sell it to a used auto parts Cape Cod salvage yard that will tear down your vehicle for the used auto parts and the scrap metal?

How Much Money Can You Get?

The question that you may be asking yourself at this point is how much money can you get for your used auto parts and scrap metal? The answer depends on a few factors. First and foremost, it depends on the year, make, and model of the vehicle. If you own an old scrap automobile that’s no longer worth repairing the used auto parts still have value. Used auto parts such as the battery, radio, and tires can all be re-sold. However, the value of those parts depends on the type of car you’re selling. For example, the parts of a luxury car like a BMW or Mercedes may be worth more money than the same parts of a Dodge or Ford.

Tires, lights, parts of the suspension, and many exterior pieces are typically worth the most money. However, if your junk car is missing any valuable pieces or any of the used auto parts are broken beyond repair your vehicle is worth less money. In addition to the used auto parts, the scrap metal in your junk car is also worth some money. However, the value of the scrap metal fluctuates depending on the value of each particular metal. For example, if the price of steel goes up the scrap value of your junk vehicle goes up as well. On the other hand, if the price of steel goes down, the value of your junk vehicle goes down as well.

Should You Sell Your Old Car For Used Auto Parts Or Sell It For Scrap Metal?

Post by: andrew capobianco May 20, 2021 0 Comments

If you own a used vehicle that isn’t worth repairing you may be wondering what you should do in order to get the most money for it. You’re obviously not going to be able to trade it in when buying a new or used car or sell it privately to someone who wants to drive it away. However, your old car does have some value, and it’s important that you get the most money you can for it. This holds especially true if you’re planning to buy another automobile that’s in good working order. Even if you don’t need to replace your old broken car with another automobile, it still makes sense to sell it.

You certainly don’t need to have it sitting around your yard. Not only is your used car an eyesore, but the longer it sits and rots away the less it will be worth. The q that remains is should you sell your old car for used auto parts or sell it for scrap metal? The best solution is to sell your car in one piece to a reputable salvage yard that specializes in auto parts on Cape Cod. A salvage yard like Robertson’s Auto Salvage will give you the best price for your used vehicle and then remove and resell the used auto parts that are still in good working order.

Robertson Salvage will then use the rest of the used car for scrap metal. This solution is the best of both worlds. You will get top dollar for your used and broken vehicle and you won’t need to remove and sell the used auto parts yourself. Even if you’re handy with a wrench it still takes a lot of time to take apart your used vehicle piece by piece. Once that task is complete, you then need to find buyers for all of those parts and pieces. In the meantime, you need to find a place to store all of those parts and pieces. Although there is a chance that you could make more money this way, there certainly is not a guarantee of that.

That bottom line is that after spending all of that time disassembling your used car you may not actually be able to sell all the used auto parts. In addition, you need to carefully consider if you’re truly capable of the task. Changing your own oil is quite different than breaking down an entire automobile. You need to consider the fact that working on a vehicle tends to be dangerous. You need to handle sharp objects and dangerous fluids. One slip could lead to a serious injury. You also run the risk of causing damage to the environment.

When you take a car apart for used auto parts the fluids, such as gasoline, oil, and steering fluid to name a few need to be properly disposed of. That costs both time and money. The good news is that Robertson’s Auto Salvage will do all of that work instead. All you need to do is figure out what you’re going to do with the money.
