Junk cars bought
in Bronzeville

We're based on South Michigan Avenue, so Bronzeville pickups are usually the shortest run of our day. Greystone coach houses and the narrow service alleys behind them are the norm here, and our flatbed drivers work those alleys every week. If your car has been sitting behind the building on a permit block, we know how to get it out without a fuss.

Most of what we collect around here comes out of the alleys behind the greystones on King Drive, Calumet and Prairie. Those buildings were put up long before anyone owned two cars, so the rear parking is tight and a lot of vehicles end up wedged in for years. Our drivers run those alleys weekly and know which ones a flatbed clears and which need the winch run out from the street.

What we see most in Bronzeville

• Alley pickups behind King Drive and Calumet
• Cars boxed in by other vehicles
• Long-parked cars with flat tires or no keys
• Same-day service most days, since we're minutes away

What we'll take anywhere

We're also interested in cars that won't start, won't pass, or aren't worth fixing again. Crash write-offs and salvage-title vehicles included. Vans, pickups and SUVs usually fetch more than a small car because of what they weigh. Flooded, burnt and partially stripped vehicles are all fine.

If it has four wheels and it's reached the end of the road, it's worth a phone call. We'd rather tell you no in thirty seconds than have you assume the answer and keep the car another year.

What decides the price

Weight is the biggest factor, followed by the make and model and whether any parts are still worth pulling. That's why a rusted pickup can be worth more than a tidy compact. Metal prices shift constantly, so quotes go stale fast. Worth asking again if you shelved the idea.

Getting it done in Bronzeville

Give us the year, make, model and the problem, by phone or text. Photos are welcome and make the quote sharper. We give you the number right away and can usually collect the same day.

Five minutes of prep saves a headache. Clear every compartment, pull the transponder, keep the plates. Cancel insurance only after the car has physically left, and file your seller's report of sale with the state.

No title in Bronzeville?

Missing paperwork doesn't have to end the sale. In most situations your photo ID plus an old registration, insurance card or bill of sale is enough for us to work with. 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.
