South Carolina is perhaps best known for it’s gorgeous beaches and tasty peaches. It also holds major historical significance for southern and confederate culture. In fact, the American Civil War was started at Fort Sumter. Even though it shares a name with its neighbor to the North, South Carolina has a distinct and unique culture of its own. At The Clunker Junker, we often get grouped together with our competitors, but we like to think we are unique as well. Not only do we pay more cash for cars in South Carolina than anyone else, but we are proud of our reputation as the number one junk car buyer in the state. We earned that distinction by paying top dollar for junk cars and providing unmatched customer service. Want to see for yourself? Check out our many positive online reviews.
We buy junk cars in South Carolina whether the vehicle was involved in an accident, has a blown engine, or is just sitting around collecting dust in your driveway. As long as the vehicle is complete, we will usually be able to make an instant offer on the vehicle. But do you know what the best part is? When you sell your junk car to us, we always include free towing and removal. Many South Carolina auto salvage yards will give you a price, but then expect you to pay to tow your car to them!

The bottom line is we will buy your junk car for cash, but each car has a different value based on its condition, age, if it can run and if there’s a title involved. These three groups help categorize your junk car you’re trying to sell.
These cars don’t run, are missing parts, and typically become rusted piles of scrap. These are typically crushed and sold to salvage yards, prices are dependent on size and weight. South Carolina has one of the worst scrap markets in the country, so offers can be as low as $35 with pickup included.
These cars may have parts that can be salvaged, then crushed for scrap metal. Typically, we pay a little more for these types of cars depending on your location. Salvaging individual parts is more lucrative over the long run then raw materials alone.
We buy a large assortment of cars, even nicer cars. These cars are usually a bit newer and can drive without too many issues, and we pay much more for them. Prices are dependent on condition and comparable auction sale prices. This group has a huge range from $100 to $10,000 or more.
We have put together a simple guide and example for how to sign your South Carolina 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".
The process for getting a duplicate or replacement South Carolina title is fairly simple. If the vehicle was last titled in a state other than South Carolina you must apply for a duplicate title in the previous state. The registered owner should do the following:
SCDMV
P.O. Box 1498
Blythewood, South Carolina 29016

In some cases, yes we can. Your vehicle will have to be older than 2004 and you’ll need to be able to prove you are the legal owner of the vehicle.
