Todd's Expert Take

I'm Todd, founder of Junk Car Medics. I've been helping people sell junk cars for cash in Cleveland for over 10 years. I've learned that most sellers want two things — top dollar and fast service. We deliver on both. Our offers are fair, guaranteed, and we'll often match or beat written offers from competitors to earn your business.

Last month alone, we bought more than 39 for an average price of $600. Now is a great time to sell. We're actively paying cash for cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. And there's no car I want to buy more than yours, and I'll prove it with our offer!

Common Questions

Do you buy junk cars in my area?

Yes. Our junk car service buys clunkers across the area, including Parma, Lakewood, Euclid, Mentor, Cleveland Heights, Strongsville, Westlake, North Olmsted, and North Royalton. No matter where you are located we will make you a fair offer and come to you to remove your vehicle at no charge.

What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car?

To sell your junk car in Cleveland, Ohio, you'll need a valid title, government-issued photo ID, and vehicle registration. Lost titles can be replaced at any Ohio BMV office or online through their website using form BMV 3771 and paying a fee. Without a title, you may sell using a notarized bill of sale and old registration, though this limits buyer options. Clear any liens before selling and remove your license plates.

How are junk cars recycled and disposed of?

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 parts and scrap metal, dismantles it, and recycles or reuses the components responsibly. We work with licensed salvage and car disposal facilities that follow Ohio environmental regulations. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 210 tons of metal, safely drained more than 2,525 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 2,081 usable parts from Cleveland vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
