We buy junk cars in Council Bluffs, IA and can pay more than junk yards

If you have a junk car, the first thing that probably comes to mind when you need to get rid of it is to call up a local Council Bluffs junkyard. This makes sense, but here’s the dirty truth: A lot of those junk yards are run by pretty sleazy characters. They’re trying to make a quick buck at your expense and have some tricks up their sleeves. First, they’ll offer you cash for your junk car over the phone and when the driver shows up, they’ll try and pay you less than you agreed to. This is called a “bait and switch” and is extremely common. The other downside is that salvage yards can really only pay what the vehicle is worth in parts and raw materials. In some cases, The Clunker Junker can beat those prices by up to 10 times because rather than crush and recycle your junk car, sometimes we can re-sell them at auction for much higher prices.

You might also search for a junk car buyer in Council Bluffs, IA on classifieds websites. This comes with a whole new set of problems. We’ve all tried to sell something online, and we all know how unreliable private buyers can be. Someone will show interest in your junk car and will all of a sudden stop responding to you for no good reason. Maybe you get so far as to schedule an appointment with someone to buy your junk car, and they never show up. When we pay cash for junk cars in Council Bluffs, IA you can be sure our local junk car buyers will show up on time and maintain communication with you throughout the process.

While we can’t guarantee we can buy every junk car with no title, we often can.

2. Receive your instant offer. In most cases you’ll receive an instant offer for your junk car right on our website. Others will “call you back” if you’re lucky. We’ve invested in creating a software system that can instantly evaluate the value of your junk car based on the information you provide and various market forces like the price of scrap metal, parts inventory, and recent auto auction sales.

3. Get paid cash on the spot. If you accept our offer we’ll send one of our awesome Council Bluffs, IA junk car buyers your way. They’ll quickly inspect the vehicle to make sure your description was accurate and exchange cash for your junk car right at the time of pickup.

How long does it take to pick up my vehicle?

We can usually pick up the majority of vehicles in Council Bluffs within 1 to 3 business days. Note, however, that your local buyer or carrier takes care of all their own pick up schedules, so we can never guarantee a specific time or day for pickup on the buyer's behalf. Same day pickups are sometimes possible, but never guaranteed.

Will I be paid by cash or check?

Whether you are paid by business check or cash depends on the policy of the buyer near you who makes an offer on your vehicle. While some of our buyers do pay cash for cars, many have moved to check for better record keeping and the safety of truck drivers.

Here is what other cash for cars customers have said:

• "The van is in good condition, except for some power steering issues. It has a new alternator and windshield put in last year. All parts are working and can be sold for profit. We are busy professionals who travel a lot and don't have time to deal with repairs. Looking for a fair offer."

• "I hit a deer with it. The front panels, driver side lights, and grill are broken. The radiator is busted and it got pushed back into the fans and belts. "

• "Got a newer LS400 is the reason for junking it. The engine runs great. Power steering has a leak. Has damage on rear panel from accident. Has sunroof, radio, and heat that work. Some wiring affected by blowout but it's fixable. Has cool-looking tinted windows. Exterior needs painting."

• "I am junking the car because it is not worth it to fix when I can just take the bus. The exhaust pipe is rusted through, there is a flat tire, and there are engine problems that make it hard to start the car and have it stay started. There are also problems with the electric window and the radio display. A panel on the door is detached but it only contained the make and model of the car and is purely cosmetic."

• "The car is "somewhat" drivable. The reason I am junking it is because the transmission needs to be rebuilt (just don't feel like investing that cash). You can manually shift it but then it consistently pops out of gear and the only way to reset it is to turn the car off and on. There are some small dents and scratches on the front right side and the right side mirror is "glued" on. Other than that, the entire car is solid, physically. It also has 22-inch rims and tires that still have a good amount of life on them."

• "The truck starts but doesn't drive at the moment. The current offers I've received already are $800, $1,002, and $750 without radio."
