Vehicle scrapping subsidy standards: Scrapping a heavy-duty truck is subsidized at 18,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a medium-duty truck at 13,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a light-duty truck at 9,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a mini truck at 6,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a large passenger vehicle at 18,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a medium passenger vehicle at 11,000 yuan per vehicle, scrapping a small passenger vehicle (excluding cars) at 7,000 yuan per vehicle, and scrapping a mini passenger vehicle (excluding cars) at 5,000 yuan per vehicle. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Scrapping process: The vehicle owner submits the application materials to the joint window, where the receiving staff prints out the "Dalian City Early Retirement of Yellow Label Vehicles Subsidy Application/Approval Form" and submits it along with the application materials to the one-stop joint office's functional review department for review. After the review by various departments is completed, the vehicle owner confirms and signs the approval form. 2. Individual vehicle owners need to submit the following materials: original scrapping certificate, original vehicle deregistration certificate, original proof of vehicle scrapping for commercial vehicle owners, original ID card of the owner and 2 copies, and the original bank account number under the owner's name and 2 copies.
I've been driving in Dalian for over a decade and have a good understanding of vehicle scrappage. Indeed, there is compensation for scrapping vehicles in Dalian, especially for older small cars. The national environmental policy encourages the phase-out of highly polluting vehicles, so when you scrap a car that meets the standards, you can receive government subsidies. The compensation amount varies depending on the vehicle's condition. For example, small cars with lower emission standards, like the China II standard car I previously scrapped, received a subsidy of over 8,000 yuan. The process is actually quite simple: first, contact a designated local scrapping and recycling facility to have your car towed and processed, and they will provide a scrapping certificate. Then, take your ID card, vehicle registration certificate, and other required documents to the vehicle management office to apply for the subsidy. After applying, the money will be directly deposited into your account, usually within a few weeks to a month. However, the compensation amount is not fixed and depends on the vehicle's age and engine displacement. When purchasing a new car, dealerships often offer additional discounts. I recommend that Dalian car owners promptly handle their old vehicles—not only is it a hassle-free way to get money, but it also reduces pollution, killing two birds with one stone. Currently, the government's policy support is strong, and the compensation is reasonable, making it much more convenient than selling a used car.
