These are the questions we get most often from Sanford and Seminole County sellers. If yours is not here, call and ask — we would rather answer it once on the phone than have you guess.
Most junk cars in the Sanford area land somewhere between a couple hundred dollars and well over a thousand. What moves the number is whether the engine and transmission are intact, whether the catalytic converter is still on it, the weight of the vehicle, and how in-demand the parts are. A complete truck is worth more than a stripped compact. Call with the year, make, model and condition and we will give you a firm figure.
Yes. Non-running vehicles are most of what we buy. It does not need to start, steer, hold air in the tires, or have a battery in it. We bring a flatbed and winch it on.
Often yes, but it depends on the situation. If the title is simply lost and the vehicle is still registered in your name, Florida lets you apply for a duplicate using HSMV form 82101 through the Seminole County Tax Collector. For older vehicles there are additional paths. Bring your photo ID and registration and we will tell you honestly on the phone whether your specific case works before anyone drives out.
Yes, anywhere in Seminole County, and the cost is never quietly subtracted from your offer. If we quote you six hundred dollars, you get six hundred dollars and the tow is on us.
Same-day pickup is often available in Sanford if you call early enough in the day, and next-day is normal for the rest of the county. Scheduling depends on where the vehicle sits and whether anyone needs to be there to hand over keys and paperwork.
A photo ID, the title if you have it, and the keys if they still exist. If there is a lien on the vehicle you will also need the lien release. None of those are dealbreakers on their own, so call before assuming you cannot sell.
Someone needs to be present to sign the paperwork and take the cash. It does not have to be you personally as long as they are authorized and can sign. We can work out the details when we schedule.
Usable parts are pulled and resold, fluids and the battery are drained and handled to Florida environmental rules, and what is left goes to a shredder as scrap steel. Roughly eighty percent of a vehicle by weight gets recycled rather than landfilled.
Yes. In Florida the plate belongs to you, not the vehicle. Take it off before we load up so you can transfer it or turn it in, and remember to cancel the insurance once the sale is done.
Pickups, vans, SUVs and box trucks, yes. We also look at motorcycles and small trailers case by case. If you are unsure whether we take it, describe it on the phone and we will tell you straight.
One call, a firm offer, and free towing across Seminole County.
