How much are junk cars worth in Wisconsin?

As of October 2026, Wisconsin sedans typically bring $225–$975, SUVs $425–$1,925 and pickups $650–$3,775, based on ~$195/ton Midwest-region scrap steel. Your offer depends on the factors below.

What sets your WI offer

• Scrap steel prices: ~$195/ton in the Midwest region right now; dense steel-mill and shredder capacity across the Great Lakes keeps ferrous bids strong.
• 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 WI often run higher than rural ones because tow distances are shorter.
