Junk cars bought
in Pilsen

Pilsen's blocks off 18th Street run narrow, and a lot of buildings here share a single rear alley. Our drivers know which ones a flatbed can actually get down and which ones need the winch run out from the street. Cars that have sat behind a two-flat since the last owner are a regular call for us here.

The blocks off 18th Street run narrow and many buildings share a single rear alley, which rules out some tow setups entirely. Our drivers know which alleys a flatbed can actually get down and which ones need the winch cable run out from the street. Cars that have sat behind a two-flat since the last owner moved out are a regular job here.

What we see most in Pilsen

• Narrow shared alleys and rear yards
• Winch access from the street where needed

• Work vehicles and older imports

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 Pilsen

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 Pilsen?

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.
