What is cash for cars?

Cash for cars is a service that simplifies the process of selling your car. Instead of taking the traditional route of advertising the car, talking with potential buyers and then trying to negotiate a price, cash for cars provides a convenient way to get cash your car in one easy step.

In Sacramento, cash for cars services offer some distinct advantages over selling privately. First and foremost, you’re guaranteed a fair price. You don’t have to worry about haggling with potential buyers or leaving money on the table when it comes to negotiating a sale. Cash for cars also saves you time and hassle. We handle all paperwork associated with the sale and will come to your location to tow away the car free of charge. You’ll receive cash or check on the spot at pickup time so you don’t have to wait around for payments. Finally, since you’re dealing directly with a reputable company, you can be reassured that the sale will go smoothly and quickly.

At The Clunker Junker, our cash for cars process is simple and straightforward. We make it easy to get paid fast for your car in Sacramento.

First, you need to provide us with some details about your vehicle such as the make, model, year, mileage, condition and location. We may also request photos of the vehicle to verify its condition. Once we have all the information we need, we will provide you with an instant offer for your car. You can accept or reject the offer immediately in most cases.

If you accept the offer, we will arrange for a tow truck or buyer to come to your location in Sacramento and pick up your car. Most pickups are done within a few days and sometimes even same day.

Once the driver arrives they will exchange payment for the keys, ownership documents and vehicle. The vehicle is then towed away free of charge and all title paperwork is handled by the buyer. However, it is important that you notify the DMV that the vehicle has been sold.

Eric Mitz

Eric's Expert Take

Eric is our founder and CEO and has nearly 15 years of experience buying and selling used and junk cars in Sacramento, CA. He is also a data nerd with a finger on the pulse of the cash for cars industry and salvage vehicle values.


Hey there! Eric Mitz here, the guy behind The Clunker Junker. I’m currently diving into the latest deals we’ve made around Sacramento, California. From what I see, we’ve been able to pay approximately $695 on average for vehicles in this area. For smaller cars like the Kia Rio or the Ford Fiesta, the average price tends to dip slightly to about $681. Meanwhile, pickup trucks such as the Ford F-150 are fetching a higher value, averaging around $897. Mid-sized vehicles like SUVs and Crossovers, consider models like the Toyota Highlander or Honda CR-V, fall somewhere in the middle with an average sale price of $687.

At The Clunker Junker, we’ve been quite busy lately! In the recent past, we’ve bought nearly 2910 vehicles, shelling out over 2 million dollars. One model that regularly popped up in Sacramento was the Honda Accord. It’s a mid-size sedan that’s popular for its fuel efficiency and smooth ride. But as with any car, it comes with its fair share of common issues—transmission problems, brake system troubles, or even engine failure are often reported problems. Pumping money into resolving these problems is an option, but it might make better economic sense to sell the vehicle and use the proceeds towards a newer and more reliable car.

Regarding the “cash for cars” market trends, I’ve been in this business for long enough to spot changes in used car prices. Lately, Sacramento has been observing a downward trend with prices dropping by roughly 3.6% every month over the past year. This decline coincides with an influx of new car inventories, which inversely affects the value of used cars. In the face of uncertain market conditions and potential further depreciation, selling your used car sooner rather than later could benefit you financially. Don’t worry, I’ll be keeping close tabs on these market shifts to keep you informed about the best time to cash in on that old car!

    It was hard saying bye to an old trusted friend, but after two decades, it was time to let go. The Clunker Junker process was easy-peazy, making letting go a little easier. I just entered my vehicle information and an offer came almost instantly. I accepted the offer, entered my location and the vehicle got picked up the next day. I was paid the amount I accepted ON THE CLUNKER JUNKER. Doesnt get any easier than that.

FAQs about selling your car in Sacramento, CA

Your questions, answered

Do I need a title to sell my vehicle?

We can sometimes buy junk cars with no title in Sacramento, CA but we cannot guarantee it in all cases. It may depend on a number of different factors, such as the age of the vehicle and the exact location. Ultimately it is up to our local junk car buyers. If we can pay cash for your junk car without your pink slip you will need to have a photo ID matching a valid registration to prove ownership. Also note that offers for cars with no title or pink slip may be significantly lower!

Does the title need to be in my name?

Yes, to legally sell your vehicle you must be the legal owner. That means a title or registration in your name. Any titles that are "signed over" to you cannot be used until ownership is fully transferred into your name.

Does my vehicle need a catalytic converter?

Stolen catalytic converters are an increasingly common problem. The converter is not technically required, but your offer may change significantly if it is missing or has been replaced with an aftermarket part. All offers are subject to change when the converter is missing or replaced with aftermarket.
