What Are Your Responsibilities Before Car Wreckers Arrive?

Have you hired an auto wrecker company in your location? Well, that’s a wonderful decision you have taken, and if you have opted for a reputed name in the business, you can be sure of enjoying an eco-friendly towing off, wrecking and on spot payment of the best price that you truly deserve for your old, scrap car. However, all these good words do not deny the fact that before the professional car wreckers in Sydney arrive, you have your task cut out. On this page, let us discuss your responsibilities as the stakeholder, before the arrival of the auto wreckers. 

Emptying your fuel tank


This is the first and foremost responsibility that you should never bunk. It is your responsibility to get rid of the old, unused fuel before the wreckers arrive. Syphon off the fuel completely so that the fuel tank is entirely empty. The best way to do this is by using the standard syphoning mechanism. Remember, wrecking and recycling of scrap vehicles unused in the tank is impossible as it generates safety issues in the junkyard, for obvious reasons. 

Returning the Licence Plate to the Transport Department


This is an extremely important step that you need to take before the
car wreckers in Sydney arrive. This step has everything to do about your safety and security from the legal point of view. Remember, selling your scrap car to a wrecker is completely different from trading or selling with any dealership. Thus, when you give up the possession after removal of the number plates and hand it over to the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS), it indicates you are no longer the legal owner of the  vehicle in question.

Calling Around


This may apparently seem to be a non-essential step, but it will help you compare the prices the various wreckers offer and allow you to get the best price. Experts are of the opinion that it is essential to discuss at least 4 wreckers to compare price and then opt for the one that will give you the best price. 

You can also go for an estimate of your car’s price by using the online calculators from the sites of the companies offering cash for cars in Sydney.

Have a look the papers


In general, reputed auto wreckers would refrain from cumbersome paperworks, keeping them to the minimum. However, that does not mean they need zero paperwork. Whatever paperwork they need has to be in perfect condition. Thus, you need to ensure that the paperwork they require has to be perfect. So before the car wreckers arrive for
unwanted car removal in Sydney, you must go through the papers. 

See if you can sell any of the parts separately


Before the wreckers arrive, you can sell certain spare parts separately, For instance, see if you can sell the car battery, if it is in good, usable condition, the car stereo, the mirrors and the backglasses, the tires, the upholstery and the like before the specialists offering cash for
scrap cars in Sydney arrive.
