What do I need to sell my car?

In order to legally sell your used car in Ames, you'll need to provide a clean vehicle title as well as a set of keys to us. Iowa also encourages having your vehicle registration (if possible) and a bill of sale at the time of purchase to ensure a smooth transaction. If your car has license plates on it, you'll also want to remove those before we come to pick the vehicle up and return them to your local DOT branch as needed.

How much can I get when I sell my car?

In order to provide you with a fair offer, we take many factors into consideration when appraising a vehicle. Some of the key determining factors include mileage and model year, overall condition, location, and trim/upgrades.

This means that new sound system you had installed in your vehicle or those new tires you had put on a few months ago will be factored into the appraised value of your car, so you'll receive a more competitive offer than other Ames junk car buyers can provide with their appraisal methods.

How much do we pay for cars?

No car is damaged the same way and no offer is the same. All of our offers are unique and based on individual situations. Our offers are based on your vehicle's year, make, and model. And the factors that can affect your offer is the mileage and current conditions of your car. The pre-accident market value of your vehicle, such as values that may be listed in the Kelley Blue Book, also comes into consideration.

What should you know before selling to a junkyard or private buyers in Ames, IA?

  • Never pay to tow your car. Any reputable company should provide you with free towing

  • Never sign your title over before you get paid

  • Do not accept any offer that wasn’t the one you agreed on. Many competitors will use this marketing tactic and they will try to lower your offer and expect you to accept that new offer since you’ve already invested so much time and need the car gone.

  • Never give your car away for free! Even if its junk or scrapped it has some value left to it
