About Aluminum Engine Block

Scrap Your Aluminum Engine Block for Cash

Do you have an aluminum engine block from an old car or truck you no longer need? Scrap it and earn some extra cash! Aluminum engine blocks are highly valuable at scrap yards, but to get the best aluminum engine block scrap price, preparation is key. Be sure to clean the engine block by removing any oil, dirt, or plastic attachments, and check for steel or other materials that could lower its value. These blocks can be heavy, so take care when loading them for transport.

Tips for Getting the Most Money for Aluminum Engine Blocks

  • Remove Steel Components: If your engine block contains steel or mixed materials, it will likely be priced closer to steel scrap rates. Cleaned aluminum blocks fetch higher prices.
  • Check for Oil Residue: Scrap yards may deduct from your payment if the engine block contains oil, so make sure it’s clean.
  • Call Ahead for Prices: Since aluminum scrap prices can fluctuate based on market trends, always check with multiple yards for the best rates.
