Frequently Asked Questions

Junk, wrecked and scrap cars, as they are. That includes cars with no keys, body damage or missing parts.

Yes. A car that won't start is a junk car, and junk cars are what we buy. Tell us it doesn't start when you send the details.

Send the two-step form: year, make, model and title status, then your name, phone and where the car is. We call you with an offer.

We call you about the car and make an offer. If you accept, we set a pickup time. Sending the form doesn't commit you to anything.

Yes. Towing is free, and no towing charge comes out of your offer.

At pickup, when the car is collected.

You're paid at pickup. We'll go over how when we call about your car.

Same-day pickup is often possible. Ask for it when we call.

This site covers West Gary: Tolleston, Brunswick, Westside and Black Oak. We pick up from the street, a driveway, an alley or a lot. Tell us which, and whether the car is on pavement, gravel or grass.

We can still help. In Indiana a junk car changes hands on one of two papers. One is the title, and the BMV prints a duplicate for $15 if yours is gone. The other is a BMV certificate of authority for $4, which you apply for with proof the car is yours, your current registration for example. On a car under 15 model years old, the law requires one of the two. Send the form with whatever you do have, a bill of sale, the registration or an insurance card, and on the call we'll say which route suits your car.

Not always. Indiana accepts either the title or a BMV certificate of authority. The BMV prints a duplicate title for $15 when the original is lost, stolen, mutilated, destroyed or illegible. The certificate of authority is $4, and you apply for it with proof the car is yours, your current registration for example. Tell us what you have and we'll say on the call which route suits your car.

No. We buy cars with no keys. Tell us they're missing and whether the steering wheel is locked.

Yes, if it's still yours. If your insurer has already paid the theft claim, check with them first, because the car may belong to them now.

Yes. A car with the converter missing can be sold as a junk car. Tell us it's gone when you send the details.

No. We buy vandalized cars as they are: keyed paint, broken glass, dents and all.

No. Only the owner can sell a car, so we can't buy one that was left on your property. Indiana law gives property owners a way to have it removed; our note on abandoned cars explains it.
