What is your junk car worth?
A junk car’s value is about more than whether the engine starts. Make, model and year tell us what vehicle we are evaluating. Condition, mileage, completeness and the vehicle’s current location help us put together an offer that reflects the actual car.
Our advertised range is $500–$3,000 depending on the vehicle. This is a range, not a fixed amount for every car. Give us an accurate description, including major damage and missing parts, so the first conversation is useful.
What Affects Your Cash Offer?
Be ready to describe whether the engine and transmission are present, whether the vehicle has collision or flood damage and whether it rolls and steers. Let us know if wheels, the catalytic converter or other major components are missing. We will ask about the ownership documents and pickup ZIP code as well.
These details matter because they can affect both the vehicle’s value and the equipment needed to collect it. A vehicle that matches the information you provided is easier to evaluate and schedule. If information changes or inspection reveals a different condition, we explain any change to the offer before proceeding.
What Types of Vehicles Do We Buy?
We consider old cars, accident-damaged vehicles, cars with mechanical problems, high-mileage vehicles and cars you no longer want to keep. Trucks, SUVs and vans are welcome too. You do not need to get a non-running vehicle repaired just to ask us for a quote.
Tell us if you have lost the keys or title. Those situations need a conversation about access and acceptable ownership documentation. We only complete purchases that can be legally documented.
Schedule Your Junk Car Pickup
Once you are comfortable with the offer, we coordinate a collection time. Same-day service is available when scheduling allows, and an arrival within an hour is sometimes possible. We confirm availability for your location when you call.
Free towing is included for every vehicle we buy in our service area. Tell us about blocked access, missing wheels or other pickup needs so we can plan ahead. Call to confirm any location outside our service area.
Get Paid Cash When We Pick Up Your Car
Chicago Advanced Tow, INC. handles the purchase conversation and pickup coordination. Before handing over the vehicle, remove personal belongings and make sure the required owner or authorized seller is available. At collection, we verify the vehicle and documents, complete the paperwork and pay you cash on the spot.
There is no obligation to sell just because you ask for an offer. Call with your vehicle details, ask your questions and decide whether the offer works for you.
