I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Ann Arbor, MI as of October, prices are holding steady as buyer demand and scrap inputs remain in balance. The tone of the market is stable, with offers staying consistent rather than drifting. That steadiness is creating a calm environment for sellers and keeping negotiations straightforward.
On the ground we are seeing a lot of Nissan Rogue and Ford Escape deals. Typical offers average about $642 across the city. Compact cars usually land between $432 and $618, while trucks and SUVs often land between $858 and $1,368. That spread fits what we have been quoting lately and lines up with how cars are being evaluated during pickup and inspection.
Sellers tell us the top reasons are collision or body damage at 50 percent, failed inspection at 25 percent, engine problems at 17 percent, missing catalytic converter at 7 percent, and transmission failure at 1 percent. Turnaround stays quick, with a median pickup around 1 hour 19 minutes, and 93 percent completed within 24 hours. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
Ready to say goodbye to your junk car in Ann Arbor? You will need a few key pieces of paperwork. Make sure you have a valid title, a government ID, registration, and all keys handy. If the title is gone missing, do not fret. You can get a replacement from the Michigan Secretary of State using form TR-11L for just $15. You can handle that at a branch office or online via ExpressSOS. Those replacements usually show up in about 7 to 10 business days.
Sometimes, buyers might accept a registration or a bill of sale in place of a title, depending on the circumstances. So, it never hurts to ask. With the right paperwork, you are one step closer to making that sale.
Recycling your car means you’re handing it over to a licensed buyer who’s ready to give it a fresh start. In Ann Arbor, we hone in on the essentials: parts and scrap metal. We make sure to stick to Michigan’s environmental guidelines so every vehicle is treated with care. This year alone, we’ve recycled over 894 tons of metal, safely drained more than 4,158 gallons of fluids, and rescued around 4,290 usable parts from cars in the area. It’s all about reducing waste while letting those parts shine again.
I needed to dispose of a car with engine issues and called them on a Sunday afternoon. Within just an hour and a half, the team had picked it up and I received my check, making the whole process smooth and friendly.
