We're out in Auburn Gresham most weeks. A large share of the calls are cars that failed emissions and were never going to pass, or vehicles sitting since a collision that the insurance didn't cover. Either one is fine by us — we buy them running or not, damaged or not.

What we see most in Auburn Gresham

• Failed emissions vehicles
• Post-accident and uninsured damage cars
• Cars sitting in driveways and yards
• Cash paid before the car is loaded

What we'll take anywhere

On top of that we buy dead engines, failed emissions, and any car where the repair estimate exceeded its value. Wrecks and total losses, salvage title or not. Heavier vehicles like trucks and SUVs generally pay more. Water and fire damage don't rule a car out.

We take far more than people expect. Before you assume yours is too far gone, give us thirty seconds on the phone.

What decides the price

Mostly weight, then year, make and model, then whether anything on the car is still worth reselling. A heavy SUV with a dead engine often beats a light sedan that still runs. Scrap prices move week to week, so an old quote won't match today's number. Worth asking again if you shelved the idea.

Getting it done in Auburn Gresham

Text or ring us with the year, make, model and the state it's in. A photo helps us tighten the number. You'll have a quote in minutes and, if you want to go ahead, a truck often the same day.

Before the truck arrives: empty the car properly, including under the seats, and take the toll transponder down. Your plates are yours to keep. Leave the insurance running until the vehicle is gone, then report the sale to the Illinois Secretary of State.

No title in Auburn Gresham?

No title is the most common reason people never sell a dead car, and it's usually not the obstacle they think. Bring your ID and any document tying the vehicle to you and we can generally proceed. Some situations genuinely don't work, a car still under a loan being the common one. Tell us on the phone and you'll get a straight answer before anyone drives anywhere.
