Scrap Car Buyers in Bloomfield Township, Michigan
What is a scrap car worth in Bloomfield Township?
Scrap price starts with curb weight — roughly 2,700 lbs for a compact and 5,500 lbs for a full-size truck — at prevailing Michigan shred rates. We then add whatever we can resell: catalytic converter, alloy wheels, straight body panels, a good engine. That parts credit is why a Bloomfield Township car usually beats the per-ton number.
Township driveways and three-car garages hide a lot of forgotten project cars. We'll winch a car that hasn't moved in eight years right off the pad.
Local landmarks on our route: Bloomfield Township Public Library, plus the Telegraph Rd and Square Lake Rd corridor. Neighborhoods we load in constantly include Franklin Hills, Charing Cross, Hickory Heights. ZIP codes covered here: 48301, 48302, 48304, 48322, 48323.

Weight is the floor, not the ceiling
A pure scrap yard weighs the car, pays the shred rate, and crushes it. We are a dismantler first, so the same Bloomfield Township vehicle gets inventoried for parts before anything is baled. Two identical shells can be worth very different money depending on whether the converter is still bolted on and whether the wheels are aluminum.
- Curb weight × current Michigan shred rate = the floor
- Catalytic converter: often the single largest line item
- Aluminum wheels, batteries and radiators add real dollars
- Missing drivetrain or a stripped converter lowers the number
Getting a scrapper out of Bloomfield Township
We are about 15 minutes from our yard on Cesar E Chavez Ave via Telegraph Rd and Square Lake Rd, so hauling a dead shell out of Franklin Hills is a routine run, not a special trip. Bring us the plate off the car; we handle the salvage paperwork on our end.

Scrap car buyers questions from Bloomfield Township sellers
Do you pay by the ton in Bloomfield Township?
We quote a single all-in number rather than a per-ton rate, because per-ton pricing ignores the resale value of the parts. In practice that means most complete Bloomfield Township cars come out ahead of a weigh-in-only quote.
Is the catalytic converter really worth that much?
Often yes — it can be several hundred dollars on its own. If yours was already cut off, tell us; it changes the quote but we still buy the car.
Do I need to drain fluids or remove the battery?
No. Leave it exactly as it sits. Our yard is licensed to handle fluids, refrigerant and batteries properly.
What if the car is already partly stripped?
We still buy it. Send a couple of photos with your quote request so the Bloomfield Township number is accurate the first time.
