Who We Are

The Best Cash for Cars Service in Richmond

Older vehicles can add to one of the financial stressors in our lives. If it’s to a point where it no longer makes financial sense for you to keep your vehicle, we are here to help. Although not an easy decision, we hope to help with at least some relief for you. Simply get an online quote, schedule your free pickup, and get paid. We have become a reputable business in Richmond, VA and would like to help as much as possible.

How It Works

Most people assume getting cash for junk cars is hard. It's not. You can go from getting a quote to getting paid for your old, damaged, or unwanted car within 24 hours. Here's how our easy process works.

01

Share Your Car's Details

Start the process of getting cash for your junk car by sharing basic details online or by phone. Tell us the vehicle's year, make, model and honest condition. The more accurate you are, the more accurate our offer will be (and the less chance of any adjustments at pickup).

02

Get an Instant Offer

View your guaranteed offer to sell your car immediately. If you like the price, accept it and select a day and time for the removal. Most pickups happen within 24 hours. Don't like it? No pressure. Your offer remains valid for 5 days.

03

Get Paid at Pickup

The tow truck driver arrives, does a quick inspection of the vehicle, verifies ownership, helps you with the title paperwork, and pays you on the spot. All before he hooks up your vehicle and tows it away. The whole thing takes 5 to 15 minutes.

We make selling junk cars for cash so easy, it's scary.

Reviews

What They're Saying About Our Service

"Super easy, and received a very good price for my junker. Junk Car Reaper didn't try to haggle on the price they committed to pay online without even seeing the car. Someone came out the next day, put cash in my hand, and then towed the car away. I strongly recommend Junk Car Reaper."
