Scrap Car Market in Windsor
Windsor is Canada's automotive capital — home to Stellantis's Windsor Assembly Plant and the Ford Windsor Engine Plant. That industrial heritage means Windsor residents are surrounded by vehicles, and the city has one of the highest vehicle-per-capita rates in Canada. The scrap car market here is closely tied to the auto sector: retired fleet vehicles, off-lease units, and trade-ins cycle through Windsor's salvage and recycling network faster than in most Canadian cities. Windsor's position directly across from Detroit also means the local scrap metal market benefits from cross-border pricing dynamics — US demand for steel and non-ferrous metals influences what Essex County yards will pay. Tecumseh, LaSalle, and Amherstburg are all within free towing range.
