How selling your junk car works
Three simple steps, with the price math shown before you share any contact info. Here is exactly what to expect.
Get your estimate
Enter your VIN or pick your year, make, and model, then answer a few quick questions about condition, title, and whether the car runs. You see an estimated value range with the full breakdown - no phone number required.
Lock a firm offer
Like the range? Share where to reach you and we connect you with vetted buyers who make a firm offer. Because the offer is confirmed in writing, there are no surprise re-pricing games when the truck shows up.
Get paid at pickup
Schedule free towing on your terms. The buyer comes to you, verifies the car matches what you described, and pays you on the spot - before the car is loaded.
Why we show the estimate first
Most junk car sites make you hand over your phone number just to see a number. We do the opposite: the junk car value calculator gives you an estimated range up front, and shows how it was built - scrap metal, catalytic converter, and a parts-and-demand premium. You decide whether to go further only after you have seen a real number.
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 control - and what we do not
We are a lead service: we give you an honest estimate and connect you with buyers. We do not own the tow trucks or hand you the cash ourselves. What we can do is be transparent about the math, favor buyers who honor their quotes and include free towing, and teach you how to spot a lowball.

Frequently asked questions
The estimate takes about a minute. Once you share your contact details and a buyer confirms the car, most pickups are scheduled within 1-3 days, sometimes same-day in busier metros.
