If you have an old car you want to sell, whether it's running, damaged, or completely broken down, you have a few options available. Dealership trade-ins and selling used cars through classified ads like Craigslist are commonly considered, but these methods can be a real hassle. Fortunately, there is an easier way.
With SellMax Cash for Cars, selling your used car in Yuma AZ is as easy as making a phone call. Our friendly staff will handle the rest of the transaction, from coming to you for an inspection of your vehicle and making an offer, to towing the car and handling any necessary paperwork. And of course, we'll pay you cash on the spot.
Hassle-Free Used Car Buyers in Yuma AZ
If you trade in your car at a dealership, you have to handle all the transportation and paperwork. You may also often find that the trade-in value for your vehicle is much lower than expected, and the process of trading in can take a week or longer.
Trying to sell your car on Craigslist or through another classified ad service can be even worse. You may not find an interested buyer right away -- or at all, depending on the condition of your vehicle. You also have to weed through people who respond to your ad and deal with strangers coming to your home, who may not even buy the car.
We purchase any vehicle in any shape for cash, even if it's not running, broken down, or completely junked. Our process is fast and easy: One of our expert car buyers will come to your vehicle in Yuma AZ at a convenient time for you, inspect the condition and make you an offer. You're under no obligation to accept. If you do agree to the offer, we pay you cash and have your vehicle towed away at no expense to you.
How Much Will You Get for Your Car?
The offering price for your vehicle will depend on a few different factors. The most important factors are the make, model, year, mileage, and condition of your vehicle. Older cars will be worth less than newer vehicles, damaged or non-running vehicles will not be worth as much as cars that are in working condition.
In some cases, though, the age of the vehicle can be a positive factor in our offer price. Certain makes and models of classic cars may be worth more, particularly if they're in decent shape.
Friendly, Convenient Used Car Buying Service
When you call our local Yuma AZ office, our friendly and professional staff will be ready to take your call and discuss the vehicle you're selling. There's no risk when you contact us -- we offer a free, no-obligation quote for your vehicle, regardless of the condition.

Sean Pour has spent nearly 20 years in the cash for junk cars business. As co-founder, he’s built pricing algorithms and helped thousands of people sell junk cars in Yuma.
I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Yuma, AZ as of October, offers have softened compared to last month as dismantlers are bidding more cautiously and wholesale values are under pressure. The trend is down for the moment, and we are seeing that play out in real offer ranges. On the ground, the Hyundai Tucson and Subaru Forester are the most common vehicles we buy here, which fits the area’s steady demand for practical crossovers.
Citywide, the average payout is around $696. Compact cars usually land between $413 and $542, while trucks and SUVs tend to come in between $831 and $1,670. A Tucson or Forester in typical local condition often falls somewhere in the middle of those bands, with mileage and mechanical health making the biggest difference in the final offer.
Why people sell is clear in the numbers. 52 percent are moving on after a failed inspection. 20 percent report engine problems. 18 percent have collision or body damage. 8 percent cite a missing catalytic converter. 2 percent are dealing with transmission failure. Pickups happen fast, with a median time of about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and 92 percent completed within 24 hours. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
Absolutely, we do. We serve Yuma and nearby areas including Imperial, El Centro, Calexico, Brawley, San Luis, Somerton, Wellton, Dateland, Cibola, Yuma Proving Ground, and lots more close by.
Ready to part ways with your car in Yuma? You will need a valid title, a photo ID, your car registration, and all the keys. If you have misplaced the title, do not worry. You can replace it at any Arizona MVD office or a third-party location. Just fill out form 96-0236 and pay a small fee, or hop on the MVD NOW online portal.
If you have a pre-1981 or a low-value vehicle, Arizona might let you use a notarized bill of sale and an MVD abandonment letter instead of a title. It is a bit flexible, so feel free to ask about your options.
Recycling your car here in Yuma is like giving it a new lease on life. When you pass it on to a licensed buyer, they know just how to turn those old wheels into something useful. We’re all about parts and scrap metal, and we make sure to follow Arizona's environmental rules so every car is treated right. This year alone, we've recycled over 417 tons of metal, safely drained more than 3,902 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 3,115 usable parts from vehicles in Yuma. It's all about reducing waste and letting those parts continue their journey.
The team provided excellent support when I needed to junk my car for the first time. They were responsive and sent me the necessary link and information to complete the transfer process after I received a DMV notice. Their professionalism and helpfulness made the experience smooth and stress-free.
