It may seem impossible to sell a car that's been sitting around for years. The bad weather may have gotten to it, or there may be too much mileage. The only guarantee that your car will be gone for good is to contact our company. Review your options in getting paid cash for junk cars.
Our company helps all drivers to get rid of their junk cars. We buy used cars in all conditions and from all types of owners. So you avoid the hassles of selling the car on your own. Selling a car on your own is a burden, whether you sell it to a private party or trade it in at a dealership. This means having to deal with paperwork. You have to obtain the title and maintenance records for the potential buyers to review. When you trade in a car with a dealer, you must negotiate the price carefully to avoid being cheated. Either way, it takes a lot of time and effort to sell a vehicle.
However, some people cannot afford either, so they need companies like SellMax to come in for assistance. We work with you the same day and provide offers that most of our customers are satisfied with. We'll genuinely give you what we believe your car is worth.

In most cases we uses the current price of scrap metal to determine junk and scrap car prices. However, if your vehicle is newer and the parts are more valuable, we will determine the price based on the resale value of the parts on the car. This is calculated by how in demand the parts for your car, truck or van is.

I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Portland, OR as of October, the market is trending down. Offers have dipped from last month as dismantlers are bidding softer and wholesale values feel pressure. Even so, demand is steady and we continue buying a lot of Toyota Camry and Honda HR-V from local sellers.
Across the city the typical offer comes in around $582. Compact cars usually land between $377 and $586, while trucks and SUVs often reach $800 to $1,262 and many clear the thousand dollar mark when condition allows. Those Camry and HR-V examples fit the pattern, with pricing driven by mileage, damage, and title status.
Why people are selling lines up with what we see in the yard. Missing catalytic converters account for 46% of cars sold. Failed inspection makes up 23%. Engine problems are 19%. Collision or body damage is 10%. Transmission failure is 2%. Even with softer pricing, the turnaround stays quick. Median pickup sits at 1 hour 13 minutes, and 93% of vehicles are collected within a day. Our team will keep tracking these shifts to help you stay informed.
