Sean’s Expert Take on the Santa Rosa 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 Santa Rosa.

    I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Santa Rosa, CA as of October, the market looks steady. Pricing has held flat compared with last month, with no meaningful shifts in parts demand or scrap inputs. Parts demand and scrap inputs are steady. That lines up with what we are seeing and confirms a stable trend. Sellers can expect consistent valuations this month.

    Citywide average payout sits around $672. Compact cars usually land between $409 and $581, while trucks and SUVs commonly range from $800 to $1,257. Trucks often exceed $1,000. We continue to see a lot of Toyota Corolla and Chevrolet Malibu sellers, and the typical offers for those vehicles line up with these ranges. That mix keeps overall pricing stable.

    Why people sell right now breaks down clearly. Engine problems account for 40 percent. Collision or body damage makes up 27 percent. Failed inspection is 14 percent, and missing catalytic converter is 14 percent. Transmission failure represents 5 percent. Response is rapid with a median pickup time of 2 hours 13 minutes, and 90 percent of vehicles are picked up within 24 hours. We’ll be here keeping you updated as trends evolve.

Do you buy junk cars near me?

Yes, we do buy near you! We serve Santa Rosa and nearby areas including Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Napa, Sonoma, Novato, San Rafael, Mill Valley, Larkspur, Fairfield, Vallejo and many more.

What paperwork do I need to sell my car?

Thinking about selling your car in sunny Santa Rosa? You have got a couple of things to gather first. You will need your government issued ID and the vehicle title. If you do not have the title but your car is paid off and it was originally titled in California, do not worry. We might still be able to help you out with a reg227 form.

Just a few simple steps and you will be on your way to selling your car. It is always a good idea to double-check everything, so you can feel confident in the process. We are here to make it as smooth as possible for you.

How are junk cars recycled in Santa Rosa?

When you decide to recycle your car, it’s like giving it a new purpose through a licensed buyer who knows the ropes. We’re all about what counts: the parts and the scrap metal. In Santa Rosa, we stick to California’s environmental guidelines, ensuring each car gets the care it deserves. This year alone, we've recycled over 306 tons of metal, safely drained more than 6,001 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 4,675 usable parts from local vehicles. It’s a great way to reduce waste and let those parts live on, don’t you think?

Our customers love us!

The team was very helpful in junking my car, especially since it was my first experience. When I needed assistance with the DMV paperwork later, they quickly provided the necessary information and links. I appreciate their quick and courteous service.
