How selling your car to us actually goes
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 Central Florida 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 32837 where we are also paying cash:
Selling without the title
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.
32837 junk car questions
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.
Yes. Much of Orlando is HOA or gated, and we handle those pickups regularly. Just tell us the gate or access setup when you call.
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.
Just the keys and whatever title paperwork you have. If the title is missing we will tell you the form to file. We handle the rest.
Most Orlando pickups happen same-day or next-day. Call before noon and we usually tow the same day. We confirm the window when you book.
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.
Most Florida junk cars bring $200 to $1,500 depending on year, make, model and condition, plus the catalytic converter and current scrap demand. You get a firm number up front.
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.
