How selling your junk car works

Three simple steps, and no phone number needed on this site to get your offer. Here is exactly what to expect.

1

Enter your car

Pick your make, model, and year - that's it. No phone number or email needed to get your offer.

2

Get a real offer from Peddle

You go straight to our partner Peddle for a real offer in about two minutes - for running, dead, wrecked, salvage, or no-title cars. The offer is take-it-or-leave-it, with no haggling.

3

Get paid at pickup

Accept the offer and schedule free towing on your terms. Peddle comes to you, verifies the car matches what you described, and pays you at pickup - before the car is loaded.

Want to see the math first?

Most junk car sites make you hand over your phone number just to see a number. We do the opposite. If you want a quick estimate before your offer, the junk car value calculator shows an estimated range up front and how it was built - scrap metal, catalytic converter, and a parts-and-demand premium - with no contact details required.

What affects your offer

The biggest levers are whether the car runs, its title status, and its weight (heavier cars hold more recyclable steel). Damage, a missing catalytic converter, flood or fire history, and local demand for the vehicle and its parts all move the final number. We walk through the full method on how we calculate your offer.

What we do - and what we do not

We are not the buyer. We send you straight to our partner Peddle for a real offer, and we may earn a commission if you sell. We do not own the tow trucks or pay you ourselves - Peddle does. What we can do is be transparent about the math, point you to a buyer that includes free towing and pays at pickup, and teach you how to spot a lowball. Read about the offer you accept and our guide to avoiding junk car scams.

Frequently asked questions

Getting your offer takes about two minutes - you enter your car and go straight to our partner Peddle. Once you accept Peddle's offer, most pickups are scheduled within 1-3 days, sometimes same-day in busier metros.
