We buy junk, wrecked and dead cars in 33629 — Palma Ceia and Sunset Park. Free towing, a firm offer up front, and cash when we pick it up.
Tell us the year, make, model and condition. The number we quote is the number you get.
Zip 33629 covers downtown Tampa — downtown Tampa, Palma Ceia, Sunset Park and Bayshore Beautiful. It is the historic core of the Hillsborough County seat.
We buy them all — the flood car that never ran right, the truck with a blown engine, the second car that has not moved in years. Running or not, with the title or without, we make a firm offer and tow it free.
Start with a phone call. Tell us what you have — the make, the model, the year, and roughly what shape it is in. You do not need to know its value; that is on us.
We quote you a real figure on the spot, built from what the car is worth in Tampa Bay parts and scrap right now. That figure is what you are handed when the truck arrives — it does not shrink at the curb.
Then we set a pickup window that suits you, tow the car for free, and pay you in cash. That is the whole thing.
We cover the whole city. A few zips next to 33629 where we are also paying cash:
Florida law leaves room for it. Cars at least 10 years old can change hands using FLHSMV Form 82137 instead of a title; if the title simply went missing, Form 82101 produces a duplicate at the tax collector's office. We sort out which one you need before pickup.
Anywhere in our coverage area. Tell us your ZIP and the car’s year, make, model and condition, and we give a firm offer with free local towing. We are expanding across Florida, so if your town is not listed yet, call and we will confirm coverage.
Nothing with us — in fact we pay you. The tow is free and there are no disposal or pickup fees. You are handed the quoted cash amount when we load the car.
Donating can give a tax deduction, but for a low-value junk car the deduction is often small and only helps if you itemize. A cash sale puts money in hand the same day with no paperwork wait. We can give you a firm cash number to compare against the likely deduction before you decide.
If the car still runs and has clean paperwork, a private sale may net more. Once it is non-running, wrecked or not worth fixing, selling it to a junk-car buyer is usually faster and nets more than a scrapyard, because we count reusable parts on top of scrap weight and tow it free.
The highest offer usually comes from a buyer who recovers value from both scrap weight and reusable parts, and who tows free so nothing is deducted. We price on the year, make, model, condition, the catalytic converter and current scrap demand, then hand you that number in cash — no pickup-day deductions.
There is no Florida $3,000 rule for junking a car — it is a personal-finance guideline (roughly: if a car needs more than about $3,000 in repairs a year, it is usually time to let it go). For actually selling the car, what matters in Florida is the title or, for older low-value cars, the Form 82137 derelict process. If repairs have passed that point, a firm cash offer and free tow is the simpler exit.
Often yes. Under Florida Statute 319.30, a vehicle at least 10 model years old and worth under $1,000 can be sold to a licensed salvage buyer using Form HSMV 82137, the Derelict Motor Vehicle Certificate, instead of the title. If your car does not fit that, a lost title is replaced with Form 82101. We tell you which path fits before pickup.
Yes. Florida Statute 319.22 requires you to file a Notice of Sale (Form HSMV 82050) within 30 days of selling or junking the vehicle. It releases you from liability for the car once it leaves your hands. You can file at the county tax collector or online through FLHSMV; when we buy the car we point you to the form.
