Parting out questions

Has anyone had success parting out a truck? How long does it take to sell off most of the parts? Is it financially worth the time and effort vs. selling a truck as is? Do people use the Buy/Sell forum on here, E-Bay, Craigslist, FB Marketplace, others?

 

All really depends on your location, parts that are still good, price your selling for, and demand in your area. The biggest downside I've seen is it takes up space and can end up with a big pile of parts that no one wants and you still need to get rid of.

 

You might break even if you have a very strong local market for the big parts .

Drive train , body parts as soon as you factor in shipping it is to expensive. Fork lift or crane or a dock to load common carrier trailers.

My attempts were complete failures much easier for me to sell as is.

I would lose hours I could be billing if I did not bill the parting out labor at the same rate.

The slash and burn method does not work well for selling parts.
