How much are junk cars worth in Louisiana?

As of October 2026, Louisiana sedans typically bring $200–$900, SUVs $400–$1,775 and pickups $600–$3,450, based on ~$155/ton South-region scrap steel. Your offer depends on the factors below.

What sets your LA offer

• Scrap steel prices: ~$155/ton in the South region right now; high vehicle volume and mild-climate bodies keep used-parts demand steady.
• Vehicle weight: heavier trucks and SUVs carry more metal.
• Year, make and model: parts demand is higher for common, newer models.
• Condition: whether it runs, and whether the engine, transmission and catalytic converter are intact.
• Title status: a clean title in your name is part of how the offer is set.
• Location: metro offers in LA often run higher than rural ones because tow distances are shorter.
