First get yourself a chunk of land. It doesn't have to be a large chunk, just a few acres will be fine to begin. Then you will need to make sure that the land is zoned or can be re-zoned for your business. After you got that covered & have the appropriate business licenses. you will need a tow truck, forklift, basic hand tools, & a cutting torch. Let's not forget the privacy fence also! Thanks to Tipper Gore thinking that salvage yards are a eye sore, we now have to build privacy fences around them just so her pretty little eyes don't get hurt!
Now that you have everything.... Start advertising to haul off junk & wrecked cars and trucks. You'll see a lot of people advertising to pay cash for those. Some pay $25, Some pay $50, & I've even seen people pay $75 & $100 for a junk car. Drag it back to your yard & begin dismantling it. After you have a good collection of cars & parts... Advertise your salvage yard & your in business.
In the U.S., Auto Insurance companies do not salvage a vehicle. If the vehicle claim is paid out as a total loss it is sold or auctioned off to a salvage or a junk yard. The junk yard may crush the vehicle for scrap metal value or salvage parts from the vehicle or even to re-title the car on a salvage title but this is totally up to the salvage yard or whomever the yard then re-sells the vehicle too.
If you have found your stolen vehicle at a salvage yard, you need to call the police immediately. Automobile theft and receiving stolen goods are both criminal offenses.
DEPENDING ON WHAT KIND OF TITLE THE VEHICLE HAS IF IT HAS A CLEAR TITLE THEN NO IF IT HAS A SALVAGE TITLE THEN YES
Depends on the existing title, if the salvage company owns the vehicle and it does not have a salvage title then they would be just another owner like anyone else and this vehicle would have a clean title assuming that there are no lean holders. On the other hand if the vehicle in question has already received a salvage/non repairable or similar title then salvage/non repairable or similar title would follow the vehicle not a clean title.
Go to the state Motor Vehicle office, where you would normally register a vehicle. There may be extra steps to take to get title for a salvaged vehicle. Don't buy cars without getting a title. EVER. If the car was stolen you may have to return it.
