We Turn Cars into Cash on the Spot

Our founders, Tom and Tony, opened SellMax in 1990 because they saw a huge hole in the car selling community. In fact, prior to SellMax opening its doors, it was extremely difficult to sell a vehicle. There were two main methods for which you could sell your vehicle and they included an advertisement in the local paper or taking the vehicle to a dealership.

Both of these options left people with a bad taste in their mouth because either they received no calls on the ads they placed or the offer they received from the dealership was just absolutely ridiculous.

Tom and Tony knew this had to change and they did just that. They turned the car selling process into a breeze and have stuck with it since. In fact, their method was deemed the “Cash for Cars” model and it is still in place to this day. Our customers have been ecstatic with it because it also includes a buy all vehicles policy, which states that SellMax will purchase your vehicle no matter the condition of it.

As you can see, we have made it possible for you to get the most money for your vehicle and you do not have to jump through the hoops that you would if you took it to another place. Also, you do not have to worry about being rejected like some dealerships will do too.

Sean’s Expert Take on the Modesto Market

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 Modesto.

I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Modesto, CA as of October, local offers are running lower than last month as demand for used parts cools and resale supply stays high. The market is down, so expectations should be set with that in mind.

Right now we are buying a lot of Hyundai Sonata and Subaru Outback from local sellers. Typical offers are averaging about $696 across the city. Compact cars usually land between $492 and $631, while trucks and SUVs often come in from $917 to $1347, and many of those clear the thousand mark.

Pickups happen fast, with a median pickup time of 3 hours 7 minutes, and 92 percent are wrapped up within 24 hours. The reasons owners are selling are clear, with 30 percent citing a missing catalytic converter, 24 percent due to failed inspection, 21 percent tied to collision or body damage, 20 percent reporting engine problems, and 5 percent facing transmission failure. If you are comparing offers, that timing and the current pricing ranges are a good reality check. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.

What paperwork do I need to sell my car?

To sell your car in California, you'll need a government-issued ID and the title to your vehicle. It is pretty straightforward. If you're missing the title but the car is paid off and was titled in California, do not worry just yet. You might still be able to sell it using the reg227 form.

Having the right paperwork can make the process smoother. So, gather those documents and let us see what we can do together.

How are junk cars recycled in Modesto?

When you recycle your car in Modesto, you’re teaming up with a licensed buyer who knows how to breathe new life into old rides. We zero in on the essentials: parts and scrap metal. Following California's environmental rules, we ensure that every car is treated properly. This year alone, we’ve recycled over 712 tons of metal, safely drained more than 4,449 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 4,457 usable parts from vehicles right here in Modesto. It’s all about reducing waste and giving those parts a chance to shine again.
