We buy junk cars in Columbia, MO to save your sanity

Let’s talk about your other options for a moment. You’re probably thinking, “I bet I can get more cash for my junk car in Columbia, MO” by selling the car myself. We won’t lie, you might be right! But at what cost? Here are a few things you’ll be dealing with when trying to sell your junk car on your own:

• No matter how detailed your ad is, people will be bothering you with the dumbest questions you can possibly think of. “How many miles are on it?”…197,000 just like the ad says. “Can I come take it for a test drive?”…No, the ad says it doesn’t run. You may soon lose your faith in humanity.

• Even though you’re advertising a junk car for sale, people will nitpick every single minor dent, scratch, and paint chip to try and get you down on price. When we buy junk cars in Columbia, MO, we expect them to be junk and never hassle you over imperfections.

• You’ll run into multiple no-shows and time wasters. “I’ll be there at 6:30pm!” they’ll say. As 9:00pm rolls around it’s clear you’re never going to hear from them again. It’s too bad you just canceled that dinner date and ruined your whole night.

Maybe you think having a Columbia, MO junk yard or salvage yard buy your junk car will be better? That’s what they’re in business for, right? We would probably get carpel tunnel trying to write about all the horror stories we have heard over the years. Here’s a common scam they like to pull: You’ll call them up, give them accurate details about your vehicle, and they’ll give you a quote over the phone. So you have your vehicle towed to their junkyard expecting to receive that amount. What do you do when they hand over a check for $100 less than they said? You’re not going to pay to have your junk car towed back home, you’ll probably just accept that you’ve been scammed and move on. Bummer!

When you get cash for junk cars in Columbia, MO from The Clunker Junker, you can be sure the amount you see on our website is the amount you’ll be paid. That is the end of the story!

What is the value of my vehicle in Columbia?

Today's average value for vehicles near Columbia, Missouri is $298 with free pickup. If you have a full size truck like a Ford F150 or SUV such as a Honda Pilot, the average value is a bit more at $372, but could be $253 for small and mid-size vehicles like a Dodge Charger. Obviously, your vehicle's exact value depends on a lot of factors:

• The year, make, and model. If we can sell the vehicle at auction, it's worth more than salvage values.
• How big is the vehicle and how much does it weigh? Scrap pricing is often based on vehicle size and weight.
• Has the vehicle been in a wreck? Vehicles with usable parts are often worth more .

How long does the process take?

We can often pick up the majority of vehicles in Columbia within 1 to 3 business days. However, your local carrier or buyer takes care of all their own schedules, so we can never fully guarantee a specific pickup time on their behalf. Same day pickups are sometimes possible, but never guaranteed.

Will I be paid by cash or check?

Whether you are paid by cash or check depends on the policies of the buyer near you who places a bid on your vehicle. While many of our buyers do pay cash for cars, many have moved to check for the safety of tow drivers and better record keeping.
