Junk and salvage yards, also known as auto wreckers or auto dismantlers, operate by acquiring end-of-life vehicles, often through auctions or insurance companies, removing usable parts, and selling them to consumers or repair shops at a fraction of the cost of new parts. The remaining scrap metal is sold to recycling facilities by weight.
If you are looking to buy or sell an auto wrecker & salvage yard business, it is important to have some context on pricing, valuation, and financial performance of these businesses. Below we have aggregated listing data, surfaced key financial metrics, and derived valuation multiples.
