My grandpa owns a junkyard. He has retired to Florida. How do I make money on this?

It's right behind my house, literally less than a 30 second walk from where I'm sitting and I'm in the junk yard.

I have the keys to the place so nobody is there. It's closed down with easily 50+ cars.

Are there just cars?

Host a pick-a-part or other event where people come through and purchase car parts from you

Just sell parts on ebay

You can:
1) Sell the most fucked up for scraps (sell metal by pound)
2) You can sell parts of classics (I see a caddillac there)
3) You should get a list of every car model/year and search the value and the volume of each today, and the most valuable you either sell for parts, or fix sell the car (classics)
4) You can sell the glass, the fluids the truck box,
5) You can sell all the wheels as a wheel, wheels always sell, if you are handy with metal works, you could wide them and sell them..
6) I see a bunch of pickups, pickups are cool now, so see the ones that sell better (go to ebay for example and check for the model, go to the side bar and click on recently closed items or something).
If it was me, I would sell the most I could, get the money and put it on fixing some still good/value cars and on getting wrecked highquality cars, as you can sell the frame and docs to car thiefs and you make a shitload of money from the frames and docs and from the metal/parts that you recover, it's a insanely good business and it isn't even ilegal.

If you do this make sure you get non-liability agreements written up by a lawyer.

If you don't know anything about the business though, I would look up the costs of processing shred (IE the lowest price for mixed metals) and see how much it would cost to get it cut up, then just sell it to an actual yard.

Pull out the actual copper maybe. If you can find someone who is in the scrap industry you'd be wise to partner with them, just make sure they don't Jew you on the prices. Fair go on something like this would be like 60-80 them and 20 you, depending on if you contribute any labor and whatnot. Scrap guys will usually know which parts to yank out, too, as well as make sure to get all the copper and catconverters and whatnot.

>>300 is an idiot, you don't want to get anywhere near dealing with thieves. It will fuck you legally and financially.
