Your car has zipped you around Waco for years and miles, but now it’s finally time to say goodbye. Maybe you just want to upgrade to a slicker ride, or maybe it’s developed some mechanical problems. Maybe it’s even stopped running. You want to get rid of your car, but trying to sell it via the internet, private ad, or even trading in a car to a dealership in or around Waco or a junkyard in Waco can be a risky, time-consuming process filled with pressure and uncertainty about whether you’re really getting the money your car is worth. Luckily, there’s a better way.
If you need to sell a vehicle, SellMax is a fast and convenient option to get cash for cars in Waco. You don’t have to deal with dealerships, write your own ad, or even tape up a for-sale sign in the back window—we’ll come to you, perform a quick and simple inspection of your car, and hand you a competitive amount of cash on the spot, no haggling necessary.
We Are Well Known!
We've been in business for over a decade and service the entire United States. One of our first services was offering cash for cars in Los Angeles, and we quickly grew to paying cash for junk cars in Houston. From there we expanded throughout the entire United States.
The best car buyer is one that closes a sale fast, giving you a price you’re happy with, and that’s exactly what you’ll find with SellMax. We want to make the process of selling a car easy and painless. From Baylor to the Magnolia Market, we’re determined to give the residents of the City with a Soul a fast and convenient option to get cash for cars in Waco.
Selling your car on your own can often involve an unreasonable amount of low bids, texting, haggling, scams, and other complete wastes of time. You can sometimes spend months waiting for a reasonable offer from a private party, and if you go to a dealership, you’re likely to get a low bid.
With SellMax, there’s no need to get underpriced pitches from strangers online or travel all the way to a dark parking lot in a distant city, only to waste time bartering with a sketchy stranger or an adamant salesperson. We buy cars in Waco, and we often buy them on the same day that our customers call. With our service, you don’t have to leave your home or waste time haggling with a potential buyer: we’ll come to you, and we’ll do our best to make the process quick and painless.
You don’t even need to cross the Waco Suspension Bridge to get cash for cars in Waco. In fact, you don’t even have to leave your own property. We’ll send a representative directly to your house to give you an offer. Our representatives are polite and professional, and we’re committed to getting you a good price for the car you want to sell.
Our representative will arrive at your home in Waco when it’s convenient for you, ready to help you get a fair price for your vehicle. After a brief inspection and evaluation, the representative will give you a competitive offer for cash on the spot. There’s no need to worry about low bids or pressure from a salesman. We make an offer based on the value of your car, and you get to decide whether to take it or not.
When it comes to the cars we buy, we’re really not choosy. Hatchbacks, pickups, sedans, SUV’s, we’ve seen (and bought) them all. We buy cars of all shapes and sizes, makes and models, and cars in all conditions. No matter what kind of car you’ve got waiting for us, the chances are we’ll take it for a fair price. In fact, your car doesn’t even have to run.
Selling a damaged car? What about a salvaged car? Need junk car removal? Not a problem. It doesn’t matter to us if your car runs or if it hasn’t started in months. In fact, even if it’s rusting away on the side of the garage, we take an “any car” approach—we’ll still buy it. What’s more, you don’t have to worry about how to get your car to us. We’ll arrange to tow your car from your house, for free. It’s a simple and easy way to get cash for junk cars in Waco, without the hassle of calling a tow truck and negotiating with a junkyard.

Our goal is to change the process of selling used cars from a painful and complicated search for a buyer to the gratifying experience of getting cash on your doorstep.
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 Waco.
I'm Sean Pour, co-founder of SellMax. Based on our recent data in Waco, TX as of October, offers are easing compared with last month as parts demand cools and resale supply stays high. The trend is down, yet activity is solid. We are seeing plenty of Hyundai Sonata and Kia K5 transactions, and the citywide average payout is about $598. Compact cars usually land between $401 and $657, while trucks and SUVs often come in between $872 and $1,730.
Why people sell here is clear from the numbers. Engine problems lead the list at 52 percent. Another 22 percent report a missing catalytic converter. We also see 18 percent tied to collision or body damage. In addition, 6 percent are selling after a failed inspection, and 2 percent point to transmission failure. For those Sonatas and K5s, offers tend to cluster around the local averages, with condition and mileage nudging payouts up or down within the expected bands.
Turnaround is quick. The median pickup is about 1 hours 3 minutes, and 91 percent of vehicles are collected within 24 hours, which helps sellers lock in quotes even while prices soften. If you are ready to move a car, we can typically set pickup and payment on the same day once the offer is accepted. You can count on us to keep an eye on changing prices.
Absolutely, we do. We serve Waco and nearby areas including Temple, Killeen, Belton, McGregor, Hewitt, Woodway, Lorena, Gatesville, Crawford, China Spring, and many more.
When you're ready to part ways with your car, you'll need a few important things. First off, a valid title is a must, along with your government ID and registration. If you've misplaced your title, don't worry. You can get a replacement at any TxDMV office or online by filling out Form VTR-34 and paying a small fee.
Now, if your car doesn’t have a title, Texas has you covered with bonded titles. You would need to use Form VTR-130-SOF for that, plus Form VTR-356 if there are multiple owners involved. Just remember to clear any liens and take off those license plates before the sale wraps up.
Recycling your car in Waco means handing it over to a licensed buyer who’s ready to give it a new purpose. Here, we prioritize the essentials: parts and scrap metal. Following Texas environmental guidelines ensures each vehicle is treated with care and respect. This year alone, we’ve recycled over 222 tons of metal, safely drained more than 3,765 gallons of fluids, and recovered around 3,757 usable parts. It’s all about reducing waste and letting those components continue their journey.
I had a car with engine issues and reached out on a Sunday afternoon. The team was quick to arrange a pickup and had everything sorted out in just a couple of hours, making the process smooth and friendly.
