Texas tip: In Texas, license plates generally stay with the seller – you can transfer them to another vehicle of the same class, keep them, or dispose of them by defacing the front; check current TxDMV guidance.
Most junk cars are worth roughly $150-$700 depending on weight, whether the catalytic converter is still on it, if it runs, and local scrap prices. Enter your make, model, and year above to get a real offer in about two minutes from our buying partner Peddle.
It’s a real offer. You enter your car, and our partner Peddle gives you an actual offer – not a vague estimate. The offer is take-it-or-leave-it with no obligation, and it depends on your car’s condition, paperwork, and local demand for the vehicle and its parts.
Usually yes, but rules vary by state and some buyers accept alternatives (registration plus ID) for very old or low-value vehicles. Cars with no title, lost keys, salvage titles, or major damage still qualify for an offer – the buyer tells you what your state and situation require before pickup.
Yes – free towing and pickup are included and never deducted from your payout. If a buyer wants to subtract a tow fee at pickup, that’s a red flag.
You get paid at pickup, before the car is loaded – on the spot, not mailed later. Pickup can often be scheduled within a few days of accepting your offer.
On this site you don’t enter a phone number or email to get your offer – you go straight to our partner Peddle, who handles the offer and any contact details under their own privacy terms. See our privacy policy and Do Not Sell My Info link in the footer.
