We buy junk cars for cash in Oregon!

Oregon is a beautiful, progressive, forward-thinking state. Oregonians are known for their passion for keeping the state and our planet sustainable. That’s why when they have an old car sitting around in their driveway, they don’t try and drive it into Crater Lake just to dispose of it. Instead, they call The Clunker Junker because we pay cash for cars in Oregon and pick them up for free. Our car buyers are committed to making sure cars are disposed of in an environmentally friendly way by properly draining all fluids, and recycling the raw materials for re-use.

Did you know that Oregon is one of the most pedestrian and cyclist friendly states not only in the USA, but in the world? Cutting back on driving is a huge step to reduce our carbon footprint. If you live in one of the bigger cities, like Portland, you might not need a car at all! So whether your car is broken or wrecked, or it’s just sitting and collecting dust because you don’t need it, give us a call when you are ready to sell your car in Oregon. We’ll be happy to buy your car, tow it away for free, and fill your pockets with cash in the process.

Your junk car is our treasure

Have you heard about the legendary treasure on Neahkahnie Mountain? Oregonians have been searching for this mythical treasure for generations, but no one has yet been able to find it! What if we told you there was an easier way to find your own personal treasure chest? It might even be sitting in your front yard. That’s right, we’ll pay you cash for cars in Oregon, and you won’t even have to put together a search party to scour the Oregon coast for decades to get it! Our car removal specialists will arrive within a few business days in most cases and put cash in your pocket. It doesn’t get much better than this!

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 the state of Oregon. He is also a data nerd with a finger on the pulse of the cash for cars industry and salvage vehicle values.


Hey there, it’s Eric Mitz, CEO and founder of The Clunker Junker. I’ve recently gone through our current offers over here in Oregon, and must share it’s really interesting. To give you a glimpse, on the broader spectrum, we tend to pay an average sum of about $424 for vehicles. When you look at the smaller cars, say a Toyota Corolla or a Honda Civic, that figure becomes a tad bit less; roughly around $377. However, it’s the good ol’ pickup trucks, like maybe a Ford F-150 or a Chevy Silverado, that’ve garnered the highest bids, averaging around $537. And, somewhere in the middle, we’ve got the families’ favorites - SUVs and crossovers; think Jeep Cherokee or a Subaru Forester, that are fetching an average sum of $535.

Now, let me share a bit more about our operations. We’ve recently added about 9366 vehicles to The Clunker Junker family! And guess how much we paid out for these? A whopping sum exceeding 4 million dollars! Zooming in on Oregon, one car that’s been particularly popular is the sedan - Honda Accord. It’s quite a household name, isn’t it? But, even the big names have their kinks. Honda Accords are often prone to transmission and brake issues, not to mention the costly engine mounts that need occasional replacements. With costs to fix these issues mounting, it’s likely a better option to sell it to us at The Clunker Junker rather than pour money into fixes.

Speaking of which, I’m proud to be an industry expert in the ‘cash for cars’ realm having spent a considerable part of my life determining used car prices. So, what’s my take on the Oregon used car market? It’s pretty steady, that’s for sure. We’re seeing only a tiny 1.7% monthly fluctuation in prices. I would say the situation is quite in-line with what we experienced about a year ago, and I personally believe this stability will hold its ground a bit longer. Considering this, it might just be the perfect time to part ways with your car! No worrying about turbulent market prices, just a smooth, consistent selling experience. But, rest assured, as true to my nature, I’ll continue monitoring the market and bring you hot-off-the-press trends and shifts!

How to sign your Oregon car title

We have put together a simple guide and example for how to sign your Oregon title when you are selling your vehicle. If there are multiple owners listed on the title, they must all sign the title unless the names are separated with "OR".

  1. Are you ready to sign your Oregon title? Turn it over to the back side and find the section that says "Reassignment". This is where you'll want to sign and print. Make sure you don't write anything in the section that says "Lien".
  2. First, print (don't sign) your name on the back of the title, where it reads "SELLER'S PRINTED NAME".
    Always sign in pen on the seller line, and never sign in the dealer section.
  3. Next, sign the back of the title where indicated by "Signature" (see image).
    Always include any and all middle names or initials that are used in the owner section.

How to get a duplicate Oregon title

The process for getting a duplicate or replacement Oregon title is fairly simple. If the vehicle was last titled in a state other than Oregon you must apply for a duplicate title in the previous state. The registered owner should do the following:

  1. Fill out the Oregon Application for Replacement Title.
  2. Bring your duplicate title application to the DMV office or mail your application to the OR division of motor vehicles at:
    
    Oregon DMV 
    1905 Lana Ave NE 
    Salem, OR 97314
    
  3. Please note that there is a seven to ten day waiting period before a duplicate title can be issued and the cost is $77.00. (Paid to the OR division of motor vehicles).

How to get rid of an abandoned vehicle in Oregon

Getting rid of an abandoned vehicle in Oregon can be a difficult process. Unfortunately, you cannot just sell any junk car that ends up on your property if you do not own it. You'll need to follow the Oregon abandoned vehicle removal procedures. We have given a general overview of what that entails below.

You can read more about selling an abandoned vehicle in Oregon

  1. To have an abandoned vehicle removed from your private property, you must first affix a notice to the vehicle stating that the vehicle will be towed if it is not removed within (72) seventy-two hours.
    If the vehicle remains unclaimed, the owner of the private property must create and sign a form that includes a description of the vehicle to be towed and the location of the property from which the vehicle will be towed.
  2. By law, you cannot claim ownership of an abandoned vehicle on your property.
Frequently Asked Questions

Do you buy cars in Oregon with no title?

Yup! We buy tons of cars without title. However, offers are almost always lower, and you’ll need to prove you own the vehicles. Most buyers require you to present a photo ID and a matching, valid registration in lieu of title. Please note that we cannot guarantee our buyers will be able to buy every car without title, and they reserve the right to refuse any vehicle.

What if my title doesn’t look like the one pictured?

Oregon often changes their title documents from year to year. If you have questions about your specific title, please contact your Oregon DMV.

Do I need to turn in my license plates?

Yes, unless you are transferring the plates to a new vehicle. You can return the plates to your local DMV office.

What should I do about my auto insurance?

You will need to notify your auto insurance company that you have sold the vehicle, so they can either cancel your policy if the vehicle was sold, or transfer/renew the policy on your new vehicle.

Is there anything else I need to do?

You may need to notify your local DMV that you have sold the vehicle. You can contact them with any additional questions or concerns about the transfer of your title.
