You can get paid for your junk car as fast as the same day. We send a driver with your check at pickup. Most sellers receive their payment within 24–48 hours of getting their offer. No waiting, no hidden delays.

Typical payment timeline
Most sellers see their car gone and payment in hand within one to two days. Same-day pickups are possible in larger metro areas. Rural or busy markets may take up to 48 hours, but rarely longer.

| Schedule pickup | Same day or next day |
| Receive payment | At pickup, usually within 24–48 hours |
What can delay payment?
Payment speed depends on a few things: location, paperwork, and scheduling. Missing titles or ID issues can slow the process. In most cases, once documents are clear, payment is fast and final.
- Location: metro vs rural pickup windows
- Paperwork: title, registration, lien release
- Availability: your chosen pickup time

FAQs
Do I really get paid on the spot?
Yes. Payment happens at pickup. No waiting days or weeks. The driver hands you a check before towing your junk car.
Is it always cash?
Most payments are by company check, which you can cash or deposit right away. Some local buyers may bring cash if requested, depending on state rules.
Can I speed it up?
Yes. Have your title and ID ready, remove personal items, and schedule the first available pickup slot. That gets your car gone and cash in hand as fast as possible.
