Out by Midway the streets are wider and driveways are easier to get into, so pickups here tend to be quick. What we see most are older sedans and minivans that have simply run out of road — a transmission going, a head gasket, a repair quote that costs more than the car is worth.

What we'll take anywhere

We also take anything that won't turn over, won't pass a test, or isn't worth another repair bill. Collision write-offs and salvage-titled cars are fine. Larger vehicles — trucks, vans, full-size SUVs — tend to pay better simply because there's more metal. Flood and fire damage are no obstacle either.

Most people are surprised by what we'll buy. If your car is in worse shape than anything listed here, it's still worth the call.

What decides the price

What the vehicle weighs matters most. After that, what it is and whether parts on it still have a market. A large vehicle that hasn't run in years can easily outprice a small one that drives fine. Prices move with the metal market. Worth asking again if you shelved the idea.

Getting it done in Garfield Ridge

Start with a call or a text. Tell us what the car is and what happened to it, and send a photo or two if you can. We quote you there and then, and if you agree we're usually out within a day.

You keep your license plates; they stay with you, not the car. Take your toll transponder off the windshield and check the glovebox, console and trunk before we arrive. Don't cancel your insurance until the car is actually gone, and file a seller's report of sale with the Illinois Secretary of State afterwards.

No title in Garfield Ridge?

Don't let missing paperwork stop you. We buy without a title in most situations — we just need your ID and a document connecting you to the vehicle. 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.
