While most tourists know Colorado for its beautiful Rocky Mountains, skiing villages and chalets, the majority of Coloradans are struggling to get by just like the rest of America. At the Clunker Junker, we understand that, and we recognize that one of the main reasons why our customers choose to sell us their cars is because they need money and quickly. You might not be able to wait two weeks to receive cash or a check, which is why we aim to pick up cars in less than three business days in most cases and pay when we collect the vehicle.
Your junk car just doesn’t fit in with the beautiful scenery of places like the Garden of the Gods, Pike’s peak, or Mesa Verde. It’s time to get that rotting hunk of metal out of your driveway and free up some valuable space in your garage or driveway. If you need cash for junk cars in Colorado, The Clunker Junker has you covered with the best offers and the fastest, friendliest, and most professional service available.

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 the state of Colorado. He is also a data nerd with a finger on the pulse of the cash for cars industry and salvage vehicle values.
Hey there, I’m Eric Mitz, CEO of The Clunker Junker! I’ve been reviewing our recent offers in Colorado, and here’s what I’m seeing. For vehicles in the area, we’re currently offering an average of around $742. If you own a smaller car, like a Ford Focus, you can expect a bit less, about $652 on average. On the other hand, if you have a pickup truck such as a Ford F-150, our highest offers are averaging around $1,015. SUVs and crossovers, like the Jeep Grand Cherokee—which seems to be quite popular—fall in between with an average offer around $846.
At The Clunker Junker, we’ve been busy. In the past month, we’ve purchased approximately 13,223 vehicles and spent over $10 million in doing so! In Colorado, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, an SUV, has been a common choice among our customers. While it’s a great vehicle, they do have issues with things like the electronic components, air suspensions, and transmission sensors. Repairing these can be costly, so sometimes selling the car can save you time and money compared to ongoing repairs.
As an expert in the cash-for-cars industry, I’ve noticed that vehicle prices in Colorado have remained rather steady. Prices are only shifting by a small margin of about 0.8% each month, which keeps us on par with where we were around this time last year. This current stability in the market is a good opportunity to sell your car. While the prices are holding steady, I’m keeping a close eye on the market trends and will keep you updated with any changes.
