Fargo is the largest city in North Dakota. When thinking of Fargo it is hard to get past the image of the popular movie by the same name, but to those who call Fargo home it is quite the opposite. Fargo ranks as the 24th safest city out of all the cities in North Dakota. They have a spirited downtown with attractions, eating establishments, entertainment venues, and unique hotels making it a wonderful place to live and visit. The citizens of Fargo are fortunate to have SellMax as part of their community. With SellMax offering honest and fair prices for all vehicles, the people of Fargo have a great place to sell the cars they no longer need.

I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Fargo, ND as of October, pricing is leaning lower this month as parts demand softens and inventory builds up. The market trend is down, which means condition is carrying extra weight in final offers, especially for cars that need repairs.
We are seeing a steady stream of Ford Escape and Ford Focus. Across the city, the average payout is about $611. Compact cars usually land between $419 and $603, while trucks and SUVs commonly range from $800 to $1,473 when the condition lines up. Those figures reflect what we are paying today rather than peak pricing from earlier periods.
Pickup turnaround stays quick, with a median of 3 hours 25 minutes, and 88 percent are completed within 24 hours. Why people are selling right now breaks down as engine problems at 45 percent, collision or body damage at 17 percent, missing catalytic converter at 16 percent, failed inspection at 12 percent, and transmission failure at 10 percent. If you are weighing an offer, a clean running car still earns the strongest bids, but even rough vehicles move fast given the current logistics. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
Sure do. We serve Fargo and nearby areas including Moorhead, West Fargo, Dilworth, Grand Forks, Jamestown, Breckenridge, Wahpeton, Hawley, Lisbon, Valley City, and many more.
Thinking of parting ways with your car in Fargo? You’ll need a few things to make it happen. First up, grab your valid title, a government ID, and the registration. If you’ve misplaced your title, don’t worry. You can get a replacement from the North Dakota DOT with form SFN 2886.
Before you say goodbye, remember to remove and return those license plates to the DMV. And if there’s a lien on the vehicle, just have a lien release document handy. It’s all about keeping things straightforward and smooth.
Recycling your car means handing it over to a licensed buyer who knows how to breathe new life into those old wheels.
