Our specialists evaluate your converter using current precious metal market data and real-world buyer demand. You’ll receive a quote along with clear next steps—no guessing, no pressure.
Drop Off Locally or Ship Securely
Bring your converter to us or follow our shipping or pickup instructions (available for approved quantities). We make the process straightforward, secure, and efficient.
Selling one or a few catalytic converters?
We make it easy for individuals, mechanics, and vehicle owners to get a fast quote with minimal effort. Just send photos, receive your estimate, and follow simple drop-off or shipping instructions.
If you’re a shop, recycler, fleet, towing company, or scrapyard, we offer tailored pricing and logistics for bulk quantities. Our team handles higher volumes efficiently and works with you on repeat or ongoing transactions.
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) converters typically contain higher precious metal content and often carry the highest value.
Aftermarket units vary widely in value depending on brand, material loading, and condition. Photos help us quote accurately.
Converters from import vehicles often contain higher precious metal concentrations and are evaluated individually.
Converters from North American vehicles are graded based on serial numbers, internal composition, and current market demand.
We evaluate larger converters and diesel-related units based on size, substrate type, and recoverable material.
Mixed lots and bulk quantities are welcome. We work with recyclers, shops, fleets, and scrapyards on volume-based pricing.
Converter value is closely linked to live market prices for platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which fluctuate daily based on global demand.
OEM converters typically contain higher precious metal loadings, while aftermarket units vary widely depending on brand and construction.
Serial numbers and stamped markings help identify the converter model and internal composition, allowing for more accurate valuation.
The ceramic or metallic honeycomb inside the converter plays a major role in recoverable metal content and overall value.
Converters that are intact and unmodified are generally easier to evaluate. Missing components or heavy damage can affect pricing.
Bulk or mixed loads may qualify for volume-based pricing, especially for commercial, recycler, or fleet sellers.
Catalytic converter values are closely tied to global precious metal markets, including platinum, palladium, and rhodium. These metals are traded daily and can fluctuate based on supply, demand, industrial usage, and broader market conditions.
In addition to metal prices, converter values can change due to:
Shifts in refinery demand
Changes in vehicle manufacturing and emissions standards
Variations in the availability of specific converter types
Short-term market volatility
Because of these factors, pricing can move quickly. A converter quoted today may be worth more or less tomorrow depending on market activity. That’s why all quotes are time-sensitive and calculated using current market data at the time of evaluation.
The fastest way to get an accurate estimate is to send clear photos and basic details of your catalytic converter. Our team uses live market data, converter identification, and real-world demand to provide pricing that reflects current conditions — not outdated averages or guesswork.
