Selling a car that doesn’t run or drive used to be the hassle to rule all hassles. First, you had to find a junk yard in Lewiston or an individual who wanted to buy a non-running car.

I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Lewiston, ME as of October, the market sits in a stable place. Prices look flat compared with last month, and we are not seeing notable changes in parts demand or scrap inputs. Citywide offers are averaging around $659, which lines up with what we have been paying through early October. That steadiness is helpful for planning if you are deciding whether to sell now or wait a bit.
On the ground, we keep buying a lot of Hyundai Elantra and Subaru Outback models. Compact cars usually land between $414 and $622, while trucks and SUVs tend to come in between $901 and $1,287. Turnaround stays quick. The median pickup is 3 hours 22 minutes, and 93 percent of cars are picked up within 24 hours. If timing matters, that consistency is a real advantage.
Why people sell is clear in the numbers. Collision or body damage accounts for 38 percent. Missing catalytic converter issues are 22 percent. Engine problems make up 20 percent. Failed inspection sits at 16 percent, and transmission failure is 4 percent. If your car fits one of these profiles, the current pricing backdrop should give you a good sense of what to expect. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.

Ready to sell your junk car in Maine? You'll need a valid title, a government-issued photo ID, and the vehicle registration. If the title's gone MIA, no worries. You can fill out form MVT-8 for a Motor Vehicle Title Replacement. Just keep in mind that getting a duplicate title costs $50. 00 and takes about 6-8 weeks.
So, gather that paperwork, and let's make this process a breeze. Selling your car can be a straightforward task, and we're here to help every step of the way.

The team was helpful in junking my car and provided assistance with the paperwork I forgot to complete. When I contacted them about a DMV letter, they quickly sent the necessary information and links. I appreciate their efficiency and support, and would reach out to them again if needed.
