In many of our blog entries, we’ve discussed how buyers of junk vehicles benefit car sellers by offering cash for wrecked cars. However, junkyards also benefit from this situation. If you’ve ever wondered how junkyards profit from offering cash for wrecked cars, below are the answers. For more information about how a professionally operated junkyard benefits from offering cash for wrecked cars, please contact Wrench-A-Part, and we will answer any questions you have.
1. Less Cash Kept Onsite
Offering cash for wrecked cars helps junkyards
keep less cash at the business location, which helps to protect against
internal and external theft. Because many of the parts they sell cost well
under $100, it isn’t uncommon for junkyards to routinely receive cash
payments from customers.
2. Lower Administrative Costs
When a junkyard is paid in cash, the
administrative staff in the business office has to count it, store it in a
temporarily secure location, and then move it to a safe to secure it after
business hours. Then the money has to be transported to the bank and
deposited in the right account. Paying customers in cash helps simplify
administrative processes for managing cash payments.
3. Acquire More Junk Vehicles
Junkyards may not like having lots of cash in their pocket, but sellers of junk vehicles do. Being paid with a check always entails the risk that the check will bounce. A driver who is selling a vehicle to a junkyard for the first time is naturally concerned about this, as he or she isn’t too familiar with the business that’s doing the buying. A cash payment eliminates the concern.
4. Sell Quality, Used Parts
The more vehicles that junkyards acquire, the
more parts they can sell. Because offering cash for wrecked cars creates an incentive for vehicle owners to sell
their end-of-life automobiles, it helps junkyards acquire more vehicles,
which thus helps them sell more quality, used parts.
