Who Can Sell Used Spark Plugs? A Guide for Global Suppliers

If you're sitting on a pile of used spark plugs—whether from an auto repair shop, scrapyard, or industrial facility—you may be sitting on valuable materials that can be recycled and refined. At Dingfeng Precious Metals, we specialize in purchasing used, dead, or scrap spark plugs globally and turning them into high-value resources through professional precious metal recycling.

Here’s a step-by-step guide for individuals, businesses, and suppliers around the world looking to sell used spark plugs efficiently and profitably.

Step 1: Sort Spark Plugs from Scrap

Begin by separating spark plugs from other automotive or metal waste. Sorting ensures a cleaner, more consistent batch, which simplifies inspection, refining, and pricing.

 Pro Tip: Remove any excessive oil or debris to maintain product integrity and avoid extra weight charges.

Step 2: Store Properly to Preserve Value

Place sorted spark plugs in dry, sealed containers or durable sacks to avoid corrosion or oxidation during storage and transport. Moisture can reduce the purity and recovery rate of the precious metals inside, which may affect your payout.

Step 3: Contact Dingfeng for Weight Confirmation

Once your materials are packed and ready, contact Dingfeng Precious Metals with:

• Estimated weight

• Approximate brand mix

• Any relevant photos

Our team will provide you with a preliminary valuation and shipping instructions.

Step 4: Ship with Trusted Partners

Send your shipment through DHL, FedEx, UPS, or coordinate with Dingfeng’s global logistics partners for fast, safe, and traceable delivery. We help streamline customs processes and ensure your shipment arrives without delays.

Step 5: Fast and Reliable Payments

After a careful inspection upon arrival, we proceed with payment within 24–48 hours via your preferred method:

• T/T (Telegraphic Transfer)

• PayPal

• Western Union

We value transparency and speed—our goal is to make sure you get paid securely and promptly.

Supplier Tip: Consistency Adds Value

Batches that are uniform in brand, model, or condition are easier and more efficient to refine. This often results in higher value per kilogram and faster processing. If possible, sort by type or brand before shipment.
