What your car is worth in Seattle

What you're offered in Seattle depends on the year, make and model, the car's weight, whether valuable parts are still on it, and where scrap and used-parts prices stand right now.

A complete car with its original catalytic converter, a newer model year with in-demand parts, and a clean title in your name all tend to raise an offer. Missing major parts or no title can lower it, but we'll still make you an offer. See how scrap prices by weight work.

Selling a car in Washington: checklist

  1. Find your title. Washington titles are handled by the Washington State Department of Licensing. Lost it? Request a duplicate.
  2. Clear out personal items from the glove box, trunk and under the seats.
  3. Sellers are legally required to remove their plates; the buyer may not use them, and the seller can transfer them to a similar vehicle or surrender them at a licensing office.
  4. Sign the title over at pickup. How to sign it correctly.
  5. File the Vehicle Report of Sale, then cancel your insurance.
