Why Should I Junk My Car?

Many customers aren’t sure if they should sell their car on their own or just junk it to a junkyard. We will give you fast cash for your vehicle with free towing, but if that’s not enough to convince you, here are the top 10 reasons why you need to junk your car to MORE CASH FOR JUNK CARS ATLANTA:

1. Your car is “ugly.”

If your car or truck is a unique color or you modified the appearance to your specific taste, you may have trouble finding a customer.

We, on the other hand, are happy to buy ugly vehicles!

2. Your car is missing key features.

These days, car buyers want bells and whistles in their vehicles. If you are missing things like a rear view camera or side airbags, less people may be interested in buying your car.

We are likely to junk your car for parts, so we don’t need your car to be fancy.

3. Your vehicle gets bad gas mileage.

If you have a truck or SUV, chances are, the miles per gallon isn’t great. Budget conscious buyers may want a better value car instead.

We buy ALL cars, trucks, etc.

4. You have a lot of miles on your car.

Your vehicle could be in top condition but still be considered undesirable if there are too many miles on the car or truck. Buyers often look elsewhere if the car has 100,000 miles or more.

Mileage won’t bother us!

5. Your vehicle was in an accident.

A lot of used car buyers need the accident report for your car. Even if your car or truck runs perfectly, an accident may spook a buyer and force them to look elsewhere.

An accident isn’t a problem for us.

6. Your car needs repairs.

You may need a car buyer because your vehicle needs repairs that you can’t afford. Chances are, a buyer isn’t going to want to deal with fixing the vehicle, and he or she will walk away from the sale.

MORE CASH FOR JUNK CARS ATLANTA, however, will buy your car in ANY condition.

7. Your car is missing the title.

If you have an old car or if you just lose things easily, you may no longer have the title for your vehicle. Many buyers refuse to buy without a title, and can back out of a sale if you are missing the paperwork.

We buy cars without a title if the car is a 2005 model or older.

8. You need money from a credible buyer.

When you sell a used car, you know nothing about the person who wants to make a sale. They could write you a bad check or could engage in some other fraudulent activity. You need a reputable buyer who will give you worry-free money.

We promise to make the sale hassle-free and we give you cold hard cash in hand.

9. You need to make an immediate sale.

Sometimes you have to make a fast sale on your car. Selling your car the traditional way will take time to advertise, schedule a buyer visit, etc.

We’re open 7 days a week, and we typically offer same day service.

10. You vehicle isn’t running.

This is probably the #1 reason people junk their car, truck, or SUV. Sometimes a vehicle drops dead and leaves you stranded. Other times, it just sits in your driveway. Cars that aren’t running typically won’t sell.

As long as your vehicle still has the main parts, we’ll not only buy the car; we’ll remove the vehicle from wherever it’s stuck.

MORE CASH FOR JUNK CARS ATLANTA will buy your car, truck or SUV despite all of the reasons above. We make you an on-the-spot offer and will haul the junk car away. You can’t get an easier car sale than that, so give us a call today or fill out our contact form!

How Much Does It Take To Repair Your Junk Car?

How much cash does it take to repair your junk car? Some people have vehicles that are repairable and some don’t. Do you think your car is good enough to be put back on the road and not junked?

There’s one way to find out. Let’s say you have a 2000 BMW 528i with a bad engine. The first step is to find out what the fair market value is for the car. Fair market value depends on the mileage and condition of the car. A lot of people use Kelly Blue Book.

But Kelley blue book in only a guide, the true value of your car is what people are actually willing to pay you cash for it. I like to see what others are asking for the vehicle with similar miles.

I like to check Autotrader, Ebay and Craigslist. Whatever price I see on those sites I use to gauge the average price for a vehicle. But I know that people don’t get exactly what they ask so I take about 20-25 percent off of that price. Lets say the BMW is worth $3,000. Once you have that price the next step is to find out how much it costs to repair the vehicle. You can call junkyards to get prices for used parts (car-parts.com).

An engine for a 2000 BMW 528i is about $1,000. Next we figure out how much the labor is to swap the engine out. The labor is around $1,000 give or take with some additional needed supplies. So were at an approximate $2,000 repair cost. There’s still $1,000 left over when you subtract the estimated repair cost $2,000 from the market value $3,000. So the question is how much cash is someone willing to give you out of this profit for the price of the junk car.
