This started because of the repair side of the business. People bring in a vehicle with a rotted frame or a rusted out floor, and sometimes the honest answer is that repairing it costs more than the vehicle is worth. Saying that and then leaving somebody with a car they cannot sell and cannot drive is a poor way to end a conversation, so we make an offer instead.

It grew from there. Now a lot of what we buy has never been in for a repair at all. If you have something sitting that you want gone, call 216.309.1567 and you will get a number.

What we buy

Running or not

A vehicle that will not start still has value. Do not pay to have something towed to a scrapyard before you have had a quote on it.

Any condition

Rust, collision damage, mechanical failure, high mileage. The condition changes the number, it does not change whether we are interested.

Cars, trucks and SUVs

Any make and model. Work trucks and vans included, and fleet vehicles being cycled out.

Vehicles we quoted

If a repair costs more than the vehicle is worth, we will tell you that and then make you an offer rather than send you away.

How it works

Send photosText a few pictures and the year, make, model and mileage to 216.309.1567. Outside, inside, and anything obviously wrong with it.
Get a numberUsually the same day the shop is open. It is a real number, not a range that narrows once somebody is standing in your driveway.
We look at itEither you bring it to Corlett Ave or we come to it. If it is what you described, the number does not move.
Title and paymentTitle signed over, payment made, and that is the transaction. Bring the title in your name and a photo ID.
We take it awayAcross Cleveland and the east side, we collect. You do not need to arrange a tow.

Why the offer does not change

The complaint people have about selling a car this way is almost never the price. It is being quoted one number on the phone and offered a lower one in person, at the point where the seller has already cleared out the car and mentally spent the money.

The way to avoid that is to quote from accurate information in the first place. Send honest photos, mention what is wrong with it, and the number you are given is the number you get. If something turns up that was not in the photos, that gets discussed rather than used as leverage.

And if you get a better offer elsewhere, take it. A vehicle we do not buy is not a loss to anybody.

Selling your car questions

Do you buy cars that do not run?

Yes. Running or not, any make, any model, any condition. A vehicle that will not start is still worth something and it is still worth a phone call before you pay somebody to tow it away.

How do I know the offer is fair?

You do not have to take it. Get another quote, and if somebody offers more, take theirs. What you get here is a straight number rather than a number that drops when we turn up, which is the part most people have had a bad experience with.

What do I need to sell my car?

The title in your name and a photo ID. If the title is lost, that is fixable through the Ohio BMV before the sale, and we can point you at what you need.

Do you buy vehicles you have quoted for repair?

Often, and that is where a lot of these come from. If a repair costs more than the vehicle is worth, telling you that and then making an offer is a better outcome than handing you a bill and a problem.

Will you pick it up?

In most cases across Cleveland and the east side, yes. Say where it is when you call.

Selling a car? Send a photo.

Most quotes come back the same day the shop is open. Free, no obligation, and if it cannot be repaired you will hear that straight.
