Everything About Selling Your Junk Car

Getting a Quote 5 questions
1
How do I get a quote for my junk car?

Getting a quote is fast and free. Call us at +1 (236) 785-4171 or fill out our online form with your vehicle's year, make, model, mileage, and condition. We'll give you an instant cash offer — no obligations, no hassle.

2
What information do I need to get a quote?

We'll need the vehicle's year, make, model, approximate mileage, general condition (running or not), and your location in Greater Vancouver. The VIN number is helpful but not required for an initial quote.

3
Do you buy cars that don't run or are heavily damaged?

Absolutely! We buy vehicles in any condition — running or not, wrecked, flood-damaged, fire-damaged, or with major mechanical issues. Condition affects the offer amount, but we'll always make a fair offer based on the vehicle's actual value.

4
What types of vehicles do you buy?

We buy all types — cars, trucks, vans, SUVs, minivans, and RVs. Any year, any make, any model. Whether it's a 1990 Honda Civic or a 2018 BMW, we'll make you a fair cash offer.

5
How long is my quote valid for?

Our quotes are typically valid for 7 days. Scrap metal prices fluctuate, so we recommend scheduling your pickup promptly after accepting to lock in your price.

Pickup & Towing 4 questions
1
Is towing really free?

Yes, 100% free. We never charge for towing or pickup. Our flatbed tow truck comes to your location at no cost. The price we quote is exactly what you receive — nothing is deducted for transport.

2
How quickly can you pick up my vehicle?

In most Greater Vancouver service areas, we offer same-day or next-day pickup. After you accept our offer, we'll schedule a convenient window — morning, afternoon, or evening, 7 days a week.

3
Do I need to be present for the pickup?

Yes — you or an authorized representative needs to be present to sign the transfer documents and receive payment. If you can't be there, you may designate someone with a signed authorization letter and valid ID.

4
What if my car is in a difficult location?

Our drivers are experienced with tricky pickups. Just let us know about any access challenges — tight driveways, enclosed garages, parking structures — when scheduling and we'll bring the right equipment.

Payment 3 questions
1
How and when do I get paid?

You get paid on the spot at pickup — cash in hand before our tow truck leaves your property. We also offer e-transfer upon request. There are no delays or waiting periods.

2
Will my offer change at pickup?

No. The price we quote is the price we pay — guaranteed, provided the vehicle's condition matches what was described. We don't do bait-and-switch. Any significant discrepancy is discussed openly before changes are made.

3
How much can I get for my junk car in Vancouver?

Offers vary based on year, make, model, weight, mileage, and condition. Most junk cars in BC fetch between $200 and $1,500 CAD. Newer or partially working vehicles can be worth significantly more — up to $6,000+. Call us for an exact quote in 2 minutes.

Paperwork & Title 4 questions
1
Do I need a title to sell my junk car in BC?

In British Columbia, a vehicle registration document is typically required. If you've lost yours, we can walk you through getting a replacement from ICBC, which is usually quick and inexpensive. Call us to discuss your specific situation — we help with this regularly.

2
Do you handle the transfer paperwork?

Yes! We handle the vehicle transfer documents on your behalf. After pickup, you won't need to do anything else with the vehicle registration. This protects you from future liability on that vehicle.

3
Should I cancel my ICBC insurance after selling?

Yes — once the vehicle is picked up and transfer is complete, contact ICBC to cancel your insurance on that plate. You may be eligible for a partial refund on your unused premium. Keep a copy of the signed transfer documents for your records.

4
What should I do before the tow truck arrives?

Remove all personal belongings (check under seats, trunk, and glove box). Have your vehicle registration and government-issued ID ready. Remove your BC licence plates — you'll return them to ICBC or transfer them to another vehicle.
