Salvage Pool Vehicles: Definition

In order to qualify as a salvage pool vehicle, at least one of the following three qualities must be true about the vehicle to be salvaged:

The vehicle has sustained flood damage:

Flood damage occurs when the vehicle has sustained water damage which has entered into the electrical components and engine of the vehicle.

If the vehicle is a total loss:

A total loss occurs when damage to the vehicle is such that the cost to repair the vehicle is greater than the vehicle’s current market value, defined in Nevada as exceeding 65% of the fair market value of the vehicle.  If it is less than 65%, then the vehicle is not considered a “total loss”.

If the vehicle is non-repairable:

Non-repairable vehicles are vehicles which may have lost or have had removed so many parts such that the vehicle is permanently rendered inoperable.

Salvage Pool Companies in Nevada

Salvage pool companies are companies which acquire one of the three types of vehicles listed above from either insurance companies who have acquired the vehicle in settlement of a claim, or vehicle dealers, wreckers, and others.
