From Brandermill and Woodlake to Salisbury, the old Village and Charter Colony, we buy junk, wrecked and dead cars across Midlothian. Free towing, a firm offer up front, and title help when you need it.
Tell us the year, make, model and condition. We give you a number that holds when the truck shows up.
Midlothian started as one of America’s earliest coal-mining towns — the Wooldridge family was digging here in the 1700s, and the Chesterfield Railroad that hauled the coal to Richmond in the 1830s was among the first railroads in the country. Today it is an unincorporated stretch of Chesterfield County about fourteen miles southwest of downtown Richmond, roughly 18,000 people across a spread of planned lake communities and subdivisions. A car that died in a Brandermill driveway and one parked behind a house near the old Village are both Midlothian pickups to us, and both get the same deal: a free tow and cash in hand.
We buy cars in any shape. The second car that sat behind the garage for three years, the teenager’s first car that gave out, the project truck that never got finished, the storm-damaged sedan — those are the calls we want. You do not fix anything, clean anything, or drive it anywhere. We come to the car.
Most of the area gets same-day pickup when you call before noon, with quick access off Route 288, Midlothian Turnpike and Hull Street Road. We tell you the window straight when we book it — no all-day mystery gaps.
And if the title is a problem, it usually is not a dealbreaker. Virginia gives you real options for salvage, nonrepairable and lost-title cars, and we know which form fits. More on that further down.
We pick up in all three Midlothian zip codes, grouped here by part of the community. Do not see your exact neighborhood? We still cover it — call and we will confirm.
The original village around the old coal-mining sites and Mid-Lothian Mines Park, plus Salisbury and the Robious neighborhoods running north toward the James River.
The big planned lake communities west toward Swift Creek Reservoir and Moseley — Brandermill, Woodlake and the surrounding subdivisions.
The newer south-and-west growth along Route 288, including Charter Colony, Hallsley and the developments that filled in after the highway opened.
Selling a junk car in Midlothian should take one phone call, not a week of runaround. Here is how ours works:
1. You tell us about the car. Year, make, model and rough condition — does it run, is it wrecked, does it still have the catalytic converter and wheels. A few quick questions. You do not need to know what it is worth; that is our job.
2. We give you a firm number. Based on the car and current Greater Richmond scrap and parts demand, you get a real offer on the spot — not a vague range, not a "we will see when we get there." The number on the phone is the number at pickup.
3. We tow it free and pay you. We pick a window that works for you, show up with a truck, hand you the cash, and haul the car. A Woodlake cul-de-sac, a Salisbury driveway, or a yard out toward Moseley — the tow is always on us.
No fees pulled out at the curb, no surprise deductions, no waiting on a check.
Virginia handles junk and salvage cars under Title 46.2, Chapter 16 of the state code, through the Virginia DMV. The right paperwork depends on the car:
You have the title. Sign it over to the licensed buyer. For a car you are scrapping, the buyer reports the disposition to the DMV.
The car is wrecked or totaled. An owner can declare a vehicle salvage with Form VSA 56, or nonrepairable with Form VSA 57. A nonrepairable car can only be sold to licensed salvage dealers, dismantlers or scrap processors — exactly what we work with.
You lost the title. The Virginia DMV can issue a replacement so you can complete the sale.
For the official rules, the Virginia DMV publishes the salvage and nonrepairable process, and the statutes live in the Code of Virginia. Chesterfield County also publishes local resources for residents.
Outside Midlothian? We cover all of Chesterfield County and the rest of the Richmond region.
Almost always something. Even a non-running, stripped or wrecked car has value in its metal, catalytic converter and reusable parts. Most Virginia junk cars land between $200 and $1,500. We give you a firm number on the phone, not a guess that changes at pickup.
Virginia wants proof of ownership for any vehicle, regardless of age. The cleanest proof is the title, but if yours is lost you apply for a replacement with DMV Form VSA 67, or use an Affidavit in Lieu of Title (Form VSA 17B). We tell you exactly which one your situation needs before we tow.
Yes. Gated and HOA pickups across Midlothian are routine for us — just tell us the access setup when you call.
Only with the lienholder cleared first. If there is still a loan against the car, the lien has to be paid off or the lender has to approve the sale before ownership can transfer. We can walk you through what that looks like for your situation.
Keys and whatever title paperwork you have. Missing title? We point you to the DMV form. We handle the rest.
Most Midlothian pickups happen same-day or next-day. Call before noon and we usually tow the same day. We confirm the window when you book.
Yes. Virginia does not require a current registration to junk a car — an expired or lapsed registration is fine. What you do need is proof of ownership, usually the title or an affidavit in lieu of title. We handle the pickup either way.
Most Virginia junk cars bring $200 to $1,500 depending on year, make, model and condition, plus the catalytic converter and scrap demand. You get a firm number up front.
Brandermill, Woodlake, Salisbury, the Village, Charter Colony — all three zip codes. Free tow, firm offer, paid on pickup.
