What’s the difference between an auto wrecker and a scrap metal dealer?

Auto wreckers offer higher payments as they dismantle vehicles for reusable parts that can be resold for higher values than scrap metal. On the other hand, scrap metal dealers typically only look at the scrap metal value of your car, regardless of working parts, meaning less cash for you.

What’s the difference between an auto wrecker and a car dealer?

Wreckers specialise in dismantling and recycling vehicles, and salvaging usable parts for resale, especially from damaged or non-running cars. In contrast, car dealers mostly buy and sell newer cars, acting as middlemen between manufacturers or private sellers and car buyers. Car dealerships also provide additional services such as car financing and warranties.
