So long story short, car was involved in an accident and likely not worth repairing from a financial standpoint.

Was wondering if anyone had insight into how I would junk a car? Sell it off to a scrap dealer? Other thoughts?

It is a 2005 Subaru Legacy Outback for reference

Might be worth throwing on craiglist in current state for a low price. Some people would be willing to buy it and rebuild it themselves.

You wont get much for scrapping a car.

Or someone might want it for a parts car.

scrap is prob worth like $500-600, they pretty much pay for how heavy your car is. Give those guys that pick up scrap cars a call, they'll pick it up and pay you on the spot BabyRage

have you tried the nasioc vancouver board? or a local subaru dealership like specialty (now jim pattison)? they might be more interested in it as a complete parts car rather than scrap.

Looks like you have to deliver the car yourself for this program. Might not work out for OP.

Thanks for the link though very well might be scrapping a car soon

I haven't checked recently but I'm pretty sure scrap steel is a lot less than that for a car that size - I'd venture to guess it's worth 300-400. Minus whatever the truck driver wants to make to haul it and he's only getting $200-300. He might get a bit more since the scrapper would probably list it on CL for parts, make a few bucks, then send it off to scrap.

These programs always make me think how much the charity is actually receiving in the end.

Trade it in at a dealership.
