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 Pittsburgh.
I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Pittsburgh, PA as of October, pricing has eased a bit. Parts demand is softer and inventory has built up, which is putting gentle pressure on offers across the board. Even with the market drifting lower, interest from sellers remains steady and the mix of vehicles has been consistent with what we usually see in the area.
The Toyota Camry and the Honda CRV are the most common cars we are picking up right now. Typical offers average about $664 citywide. Compact cars usually land between $456 and $578, while trucks and SUVs often range from $809 to $1,305. As for why people are selling, failed inspection leads at 28 percent, engine problems are 23 percent, transmission failure is 20 percent, missing catalytic converter is 16 percent, and collision or body damage is 13 percent. Those patterns line up with what you would expect when parts demand cools and stock levels rise.
Tow times are short. The median pickup is 3 hours 28 minutes, and 91 percent of vehicles are collected within 24 hours. If you are aiming to move a Camry or a family SUV quickly, odds are good we can get it done the same day. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
You bet we do. We serve Pittsburgh and nearby areas including Cleveland, OH, Youngstown, OH, Erie, PA, Washington, PA, Monroeville, PA, Greensburg, PA, Bethel Park, PA, West Mifflin, PA, Coraopolis, PA, Canonsburg, PA, and many more.
So, you’re thinking about selling your junk car in Pennsylvania? You’ll need a valid title, a photo ID, the registration, and all the keys. It’s like a little checklist to keep things moving smoothly. If you have misplaced the title, don't fret. You can snag a replacement at the PennDOT Driver License Center or online using Form MV-380.
Some buyers might consider titleless cars if you have the registration and ID handy, but be prepared for lower offers. And don’t forget to take off those license plates before you say goodbye to your car.
When you decide to recycle your car, it’s like handing off a treasure to a licensed buyer who knows just how to refresh old vehicles. In Pittsburgh, we zero in on the essentials: those valuable parts and scrap metal. We follow Pennsylvania's environmental rules, so every car is treated properly. This year alone, we’ve recycled over 260 tons of metal, safely drained more than 2,634 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 5,042 usable parts from vehicles right here in Pittsburgh. It's a win-win for the planet and helps keep those parts in play.
The team handled my car sale quickly and efficiently. While the offer was lower than I hoped due to some issues with my 2013 Chevy Impala, their friendliness and punctual pickup made the process smooth. Overall, I'm pleased with my experience at SellMax.
