Catalytic Converter Value in North Carolina Junk Cars
Your catalytic converter might be the most valuable part of your junk car. Here's why.
Catalytic Converter Value
Catalytic converters contain platinum, palladium, and rhodium — precious metals worth real money. A converter can be worth $50 to $1,000+ depending on the vehicle. We include converter value in your cash offer. Don't remove it yourself — it's dangerous and reduces the car's overall value.
The Precious Metals in Your Converter
Your catalytic converter contains platinum, palladium, and rhodium — precious metals used to filter exhaust. Rhodium has sold for over $20,000 per ounce. That's why converters are a target for theft and why they add real value to your junk car. Don't remove it yourself — let us value it.
Converter Scrap Prices in NC
Converter scrap prices vary by vehicle — a Toyota converter is worth different than a Ford converter because of the metal content and size. We know the market and include converter value in your offer. Call with your vehicle and we'll quote the converter separately if you want.

It depends on the vehicle. Some converters are worth $50; others are worth $1,000+. Trucks, SUVs, and certain imports tend to have the most valuable converters. We include converter value in your cash offer — you don't have to remove it or sell it separately.
