Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to my car after you buy it?

Depending on the condition, your vehicle will either be sold at a salvage auction, dismantled for usable parts, or crushed and recycled for scrap metal at a local facility in Illinois.

How do you determine the value of my junk car in Chicago?

The value of your car is based on current scrap metal prices in IL, the make and model, the year, and whether it has salvageable parts. Our instant quote system calculates the highest possible payout for your specific vehicle.

Do I get paid in cash on the spot?

Yes! When the tow driver arrives at your location in Chicago, they will inspect the vehicle, verify the paperwork, and hand you your payment right then and there before towing the car away.

Can I sell a car that belongs to a deceased family member?

Yes, but the process requires additional legal documentation, such as a death certificate and executor paperwork, depending on Illinois laws. Please contact our support team for guidance.
