About Selling Junk Cars in Ann Arbor, Michigan
Ann Arbor pickups are coordinated across Washtenaw County rather than handled as a neighborhood branch. We serve established areas such as Kerrytown, the Old West Side, Burns Park, Downtown, the University of Michigan campus area, and residential or commercial corridors along Washtenaw Avenue, Plymouth Road, and South State Street. Dense streets and campus traffic can require a planned loading window, while west-side drives and outlying properties may offer easier access; sharing the exact parking location helps us dispatch the right truck. We buy running and non-running sedans, hybrids, SUVs, pickups, vans, collision vehicles, and cars facing repairs that exceed their practical value. Free towing is included with accepted offers. Michigan MCL 257.233 may permit qualifying vehicles 15 years or older to be transferred for scrap without a title when ownership is proven. The values shown below are illustrative estimates consistent with our other city pages, not fabricated customer transactions.

Ann Arbor Junk Car FAQ
Do you buy junk cars without a title in Ann Arbor, Michigan?+
Yes. Under Michigan law (MCL 257.233) we can buy vehicles 15+ years old in Ann Arbor without a title — just bring a valid photo ID and proof of ownership like a registration or bill of sale. We handle all the paperwork.
How much is my junk car worth in Ann Arbor?+
Most Ann Arbor junk cars pay between $300 and $5,000, depending on the year, make, weight, and whether the catalytic converter is intact. Call and we'll give you an exact cash number in about two minutes.
How fast can you pick up my junk car in Ann Arbor?+
Same day in most cases. The average Ann Arbor pickup happens within a few hours of your call, and we're open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Is towing really free in Ann Arbor?+
Yes — free towing is included in every Ann Arbor offer. The number we quote you is the cash you get paid. No tow fees, no paperwork fees, no deductions.
Do I need to be home for the pickup in Ann Arbor?+
Not always. As long as we can access the vehicle and arrange the title, paperwork, and payment ahead of time, we can often complete a Ann Arbor pickup without you there.
Do you buy cars that don't run or won't start in Ann Arbor?+
Absolutely. We specialize in non-runners — blown engines, bad transmissions, wrecked, flood-damaged, and cars that have been sitting for years in Ann Arbor driveways and garages.
How and when do you pay?+
We pay cash (or instant electronic payment) on the spot at pickup — never a mailed check and never after the fact.
Can I sell a junk car in Ann Arbor without license plates?+
Yes. In Michigan your plates belong to you, not the car. Remove your plates before the tow and return them to the Secretary of State to cancel your registration and insurance.
What paperwork do I need to junk my car in Ann Arbor?+
A valid photo ID and the Michigan title if you have it. If you've lost the title on a vehicle 15+ years old, a current registration or proof of ownership works under MCL 257.233.
Do you buy wrecked or salvage-title cars in Ann Arbor?+
Yes — any condition and any title status, including salvage and rebuilt titles. Collision, fire, flood, or mechanical failure, we'll make an offer.
Will you still buy my car if the catalytic converter or other parts are missing in Ann Arbor?+
Yes, though a missing catalytic converter lowers the offer. Don't strip the car before pickup — it almost always costs you more than the parts are worth.
What parts of Ann Arbor do you cover?+
Every neighborhood and ZIP code in Ann Arbor, plus all of the surrounding county. Wherever you are, we'll come to you with free towing.
