CASH FOR YOUR CAR IS JUST A CALL AWAY!
Have you found yourself pondering whether or not to just set fire to the junk vehicle in your driveway? If so, you are not alone. In fact, many people are ashamed at the prices they have been offered for the vehicles that they are trying to sell. We have even heard of customers who contacted companies that offer cash for cars in Sacramento and they are only offered $50 or $100.
The team at SellMax is here to tell you a couple of secrets that you need to know. The first secret is that when you take your vehicle into the dealer or other cash for cars companies, they will offer you the least amount of money they can get away with. They will often play games with you and when you walk away taking the lowest price offered, they make a profit on you. The second secret is not much of a secret, but SellMax will pay you the HIGHEST price for your vehicle. We never simply make a profit off of you and only hand you a few bucks like you are back in high school trying to buy lunch.
Okay, we know, you are probably shaking your head thinking that we are just blowing smoke right now, but we are not. In fact, we want you to know that you can trust us and you can come to us to receive the best, fairest price for your vehicle. We know you have run into problems with other dealers, but we are not other dealers. We are SellMax.
The best part about working with us is that you are NOT obligated to take our offer either. In fact, our team will provide you with a cash offer, but if you hate it, simply say no and move on. But, we know you won’t hate it, so we are pretty confident that you will stick around.
In addition to offering you the highest price for your vehicle, we also come out to your home or desired location and pick up your vehicle FREE of charge. Yes, that is right. No fees. No hassle.
If you want to receive cash in your hand for your vehicle, contact SellMax today. We are waiting to buy your vehicle and we will give you cash for cars in Sacramento no matter the condition of your vehicle.

The Community Needed Better Options
If you tried to sell your vehicle before 1990, you know that it was difficult. If you never tried, then you never had the pleasure of experiencing one of the most difficult markets to sell your vehicle in, especially if it was a junk car or clunker.
Tom and Tony, the founders of SellMax, saw that there was a need in the community for better car selling. The process needed to be streamlined and convenient AND fair prices needed to be paid for the vehicles.
Back before SellMax, to sell a vehicle you have to either list it in the paper or take it to your local dealership. Both options were inconvenient and usually netted you a loss on the sale of your vehicle.
Tom and Tony fixed this in 1990 with the start of SellMax and the “Cash for Cars” model. This model is a buy all vehicles policy, which means that we will never turn you away based on the condition of your vehicle. We accept damaged vehicles, junk vehicles, and any other type of vehicle.
Today, the “Cash for Cars” model is still in effect and customers love bringing their vehicles to us. Let us tell you – we know cars!

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 Sacramento.
I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Sacramento, CA as of October, pricing is trending down. Dismantlers have eased their bids and wholesale values are weighing on offers, so payouts are a bit lighter than last month. Even with that backdrop, the citywide average is holding near 699, which lines up with what we are seeing on the ground.
Compact cars usually land between 490 and 696, while trucks and SUVs tend to run 990 to 1,641. Lately we have been buying a lot of Hyundai Sonata and Jeep Wrangler, and those examples reflect the ranges pretty well given condition and mileage.
Pickups are quick. The median pickup time is 2 hours 50 minutes, and 88 percent wrap up within 24 hours. As for why folks are selling, engine problems lead at 37 percent. Collision or body damage accounts for 24 percent, failed inspection is 23 percent, missing catalytic converter is 12 percent, and transmission failure is 4 percent. That mix explains why values have a wide spread by trim and condition right now, especially with the current pressure from downstream buyers. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
Yes, we do buy near you! We serve Sacramento and nearby areas including Roseville, Folsom, Elk Grove, Davis, Citrus Heights, Rancho Cordova, West Sacramento, Sacramento, Natomas, Lincoln and many more.
To sell your car in California, you'll want to have your government-issued ID handy. You'll also need the vehicle title. If the title's gone missing but your vehicle is paid off and was titled in California, don’t worry too much. We can still work with you using the reg227 form to get things sorted.
So, grab those essentials, and let’s see what we can do together. It’s all about keeping it simple and straightforward.
Recycling your car in Sacramento is like giving it a fresh start. When you hand it over to a licensed buyer, you’re ensuring it gets the care it deserves. We focus on recycling parts and scrap metal while sticking to California’s environmental rules, so you can feel good about how it’s handled. This year alone, we’ve recycled over 134 tons of metal, safely drained more than 2,663 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 4,085 usable parts from vehicles in Sacramento. It’s all about reducing waste and giving parts a new lease on life.
Selling my Toyota Matrix was easy with this team. They provided a fair cash offer and handled the paperwork for me. The pickup was quick and convenient, making the whole process stress-free.
