Junk car FAQs
Who buys junk cars near me?
Our buyer partner, CashforCars.com, buys junk cars in all 50 states and arranges free towing. Enter your ZIP code in the offer form to see what your car is worth where you live. You can also browse local junkyards in our directory, but most require you to bring the car to them.
How much will I get for my junk car?
It depends on the car's year, make, model, weight and condition, whether valuable parts like the catalytic converter are present, and current scrap metal prices in your area. Fill out the quick form for an offer on your specific vehicle.
Do you buy cars that don't run?
Yes. Non-running, wrecked, flooded and stripped cars are all welcome. Towing is always free, so the car does not need to move under its own power.
Do I need a title to sell my junk car?
A title makes the sale simplest, and most states require it. Some states allow older vehicles to be sold with other proof of ownership, and a duplicate title is usually easy to request from your state motor vehicle agency. Ask us about your situation.
How fast can my car be picked up?
Pickup is often scheduled within 24–48 hours of accepting an offer, and same-day pickup may be available in some areas.
Is there a charge for towing?
No. Towing is free when you accept an offer, and nothing is taken out of your payment for it.
What do I need to do before pickup?
Remove your personal belongings and license plates (unless your state says otherwise), have the title and your ID ready, and cancel insurance and registration after the car is gone.
