Step 1 · ~60 Seconds

Get Your Instant Cash Offer

Get started on our website or by calling us at (855) 476-1118 to tell us your car's year, make, model, mileage, and condition. We ask a few questions to provide an accurate instant quote.

Tell us what you've got

Identify your vehcle by it's year, make, and model or by entering the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

Our real-time pricing algorithm factors in scrap metal rates, local parts demand, vehicle weight, condition, and resale potential. It's not a generic calculator, but a real quote you can trust.

Price is guaranteed

As long as you are honest about your cars condition the price won't change. The amount you are quoted is the amount you will get paid.

Zero obligation

Don't like the price? No problem, take some time to think it over. Our offers remain vailid for up to 5 days as long as the condition stays the same.

What we ask you

Vehicle Info

Year, make, model. Example: "2008 Honda Civic"

Mileage

Round up or down to the nearest 1,000 or guesstimate it, we can verify it later on.

Condition

Does it run? Any major damage? Missing parts? The more accurate you are the more it protects the price at pickup.

Title Status

Have it? Lost it? We buy both (when legally able), but having the title in hand will get a better offer.

Zip Code

We need to know where the vehicle is located so we can factor in the local scrap rate and be able to assign our nearest driver if it's accepted.

Step 2 · Same-Day or Next-Day

Once you accept the offer you will need to scheudle the pickup time. Select a time that works for you. We can pickup at any public location, whether you home, place of employment, or other.

Process Questions

(855) 476-1118
It takes about 60 seconds to get an offer, 24 hours to have a tow truck arrive, and 15 minutes for the actual pickup.
We buy any and all conditions of every make and model of sedan, truck, van, or SUV. We do not buy motorcycles, ATVs, or RVs.
Yes. The title owner (or authorized representative) must be present so we can verify ownership of the vehicle.
We factor in current scrap metal rates, vehicle weight, local parts demand, condition, completeness, and location. It's priced to your specific car and market.
If you described the car accurately, no. The only reason a price changes is if something major is different (like the engine is missing when you said it ran). Be honest and the price is locked in and guaranteed.
We buy without titles in most states but the offer will be lower (~$160 less on average). Getting a replacement from your DMV costs $15–$50 and pays for itself.
No. We handle the title transfer at pickup and file with your state's DMV. You just need to cancel your registration and insurance, and hand in your plates if required by your state.
Yep, we buy non-runners all the time.
We are committed to providing you with an exceptional service and keep you informed every step of the way. If there is ever an issue with the payment just contact us and we will resolve it.
You can cancel at anytime at no cost. Even if we already arrived and you changed your mind, no problem.
If there's a significant discrepancy, the driver calls for a revised offer. You can accept the new price or decline and keep the car.
Possibly, if the title is pre-signed and you've authorized someone to accept payment. Call us for state-specific details.
