• The Best Deal on Your Old Automotive Hardware Simply put, letting The Clunker Junker buy your junk car is a surefire way to get the most money for your car regardless of its condition.

We buy junk cars and keep Des Moines Green

If you care at all about the environment, you should know that most junked vehicles are sold for scrap metal value only. This results in a lot of landfill waste that could easily be avoided. The Clunker Junker partners with mechanics and salvage technicians that recycle as many parts as possible. All fluids are drained and disposed of according to EPA guidelines.

While many local junk car buyers claim to pay you top dollar for your junk car, most fail to follow up on those promises. For starters, many will low-ball the value of your car and pressure you into selling for pennies on the dollar. Furthermore, many local junkers make you pay for towing by deducting it from the sales price. And the worst scam that’s run is when a junkyard tells you one price over the phone and then offers you a lower amount when they show up. This is called a “bait and switch” and it is a cardinal sin here at The Clunker Junker.

Here is what other cash for cars customers have said:

• "Vehicle was our primary means of transportation until recently. Engine turns over but does not start. If you put starter fluid in the intake of the air filter box, it will start, then it dies as soon as the fluid is burned up. Most likely a malfunctioning fuel pump or clogged fuel line. Too much work for me to fix. The starter and alternator have been replaced somewhat recently. The part of the dash that houses the radio is aftermarket, not OEM, and one of the plastic control knobs is missing."

• "I just bought the vehicle and was driving home when the motor completely died out on me and didn't want to start back up. I have pictures of it. The front driver side is missing the blinker light and there's some body damage cosmetic wise. "

• "The car was rear-ended back in August of 2014, so now the back bumper is hanging on by a thread. The trunk was smashed in along with the gas tank and the back window was blown out. The car ran great prior to this accident. It never threw an engine light, it ran great, and it looked even better. I have been looking for another shell to transfer everything into but have had no luck and I'm seriously sick of looking at it."

• "The odometer broke at 75,000 miles. The car is likely up to 170,000 by now. It started when I jumped it last week and drove it for a little bit. Wouldn't trust it on a main road."

• "The passenger door has damage due to the car accident and the passenger mirror as well. I'm junking it because it was given a total loss but, besides that, all the other parts are good and I had changed few components in it before the accident."

• "The engine works but it does not have a battery. The car is missing the front and rear bumpers. The radio is missing from the inside. There is a dent on the drivers side up front."
