"I called every possible buyer for my vehicle for weeks and when I reached Junk Car Medics my offer was doubled! A much more fair assessment of what I was giving up. And it couldnt have helped more at the time I needed it most! The driver was very professional and a woman! How cool! I would call her anytime I ever needed a tow service . I’ll bet she could out do any man in the industry. She did everything by the book and had some awesome stories to tell. Getting rid of my Mercedes Benz for junk had my stomach turning until she made the experience something I will tell my grandchildren! Thank you so much! You really outdid the competitors and I will keep you on my speed dial and refer you to anyone I ever get a hint needs this service. I can’t brag enough about my experience!"
Todd's Expert Take
We're currently seeing strong offers in Austin despite the typical seasonal slowdown. As we head into winter 2025, scrap metal demand usually drops, but our buyers are actively purchasing vehicles to maintain inventory. This means competitive pricing for sellers right now. We're averaging $781.00 per vehicle in your area, with trucks and SUVs commanding premium prices due to their weight.
If you've been considering selling, late fall and winter can actually work in your favor. Fewer people sell during cold months, which means less competition and buyers eager to secure inventory. We're committed to fair offers year-round, evaluating your vehicle's actual value rather than just scrap weight.

Common Questions About Junking Vehicles for Cash in Austin
Do you pay cash for junk cars near me?

What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car in Austin?
To sell your junk car in Austin, Texas, you need a valid title, government-issued photo ID, and vehicle registration. Lost titles can be replaced at any TxDMV office or online by completing Form VTR-34 and paying a fee. For titleless vehicles, Texas accepts a bonded title using Form VTR-130-SOF, and Form VTR-356 for multiple owners. All liens must be cleared before sale.
How are junk cars recycled and disposed of in Austin?
When you junk cars for cash, you are selling an old, damaged, or non-running vehicle to a licensed buyer such as an auto salvage yard, junk car buyer, or car recycling facility. The buyer pays for the value of the vehicle’s parts and scrap metal, dismantles it, and recycles or reuses the components responsibly. In Travis County, we work with licensed salvage and car disposal facilities that follow Texas environmental regulations to handle vehicles the right way. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 478 tons of metal, safely drained more than 5,731 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 4,722 usable parts from Austin vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
