Frequently Asked Questions for Des Plaines Residents

How much cash will I get for my junk car?

It depends on your car's make, model, year, condition, and current scrap metal prices. Most vehicles in Chicago get between $200 and $5,000, with the average around $800-$1,500. Trucks and SUVs typically bring more. Call us for a free quote—it takes about 2 minutes.

Do I need the title to sell my junk car?

Nope! We buy cars without titles all the time. You'll just need a valid ID and proof of ownership (like registration or insurance card). Illinois law allows us to process vehicles without titles for salvage. We handle all the paperwork.

How fast can you pick up my car?

Usually the same day, often within a few hours. We have tow trucks all over Chicago and the suburbs. If you call before noon, there's a good chance we can be there this afternoon. Evening and weekend pickups are available too.

What if my car doesn't run?

No problem at all—that's literally what we do. Dead battery, blown engine, transmission shot, won't start for mysterious reasons... we've seen it all. Our tow trucks can handle any situation, and a non-running car doesn't lower our offer much.

What condition does my car need to be in?

Any condition. Seriously. We buy cars that have been in accidents, floods, fires. Cars with missing parts, flat tires, broken windows. Rusted-out beaters and barely-driven garage queens. If it was once a car, we'll buy it.
