Short answer: You get one or more quotes based on the car's make, model, age, condition and location, agree a price and a collection time, remove your belongings and any items you are keeping, hand over the car and the required paperwork, get paid and then complete the notifications your state requires, and the car is taken away to be depolluted, stripped of useful parts and recycled.

Buyers give a price from details you supply, so the more accurate your description, the firmer the quote.
