You Can Get Cold Hard Cash for Junk Cars

It doesn’t have to be time-consuming or frustrating to turn your junk car into cash. With your zip code and some vehicle information, you can have a free quote to discover how much your car is worth in seconds. A car, truck, SUV, or any vehicle loses its value over time. Wear and tear, accumulated mileage, and especially damage drastically reduce how much you can sell your car for. Whether you have a crashed car, a total loss, a vehicle with a salvage title, or yours has been deemed a junk car, it’s tough to get even a small portion of your investment back when you try to sell it.

Places that buy cars for cash either don’t understand what your car is still worth, or they’re trying to undercut its value to turn a higher profit. You don’t need to give your car away nor should you entertain lowball offers just because someone doesn’t see your car’s true worth.

Instead of trading in a junk car or selling a car with a salvage title privately, why not sell it fast and for a fair price online? In less than 90 seconds, you can have a no-obligation offer for your vehicle in as-is condition.

How to Sell Junk Cars Quickly

Normally, it takes time to sell a junk car - time you don’t have or would rather spend doing something more valuable.

  • It takes time to create an ad or classifieds listing for your vehicle, and then it sits until an interested buyer comes around.

  • You could spend hours waiting by the phone or haggling with tire kickers over price.

  • It takes time to get your paperwork together and transfer the title to the new owner.

  • And it could take days for the check to clear at the bank.

All that work for just a small reward? It doesn’t feel like it’s worth it. However, when you visit DamagedCars.com to sell your scrap car, your time is respected.
