Get More Cash for Junk Cars, Trucks, Vans, and SUVs in Durham

Cash offers for junk cars vary by make, model, condition, mileage, weight, salvage value, and local scrap metal prices (currently $150 to $170 per ton). Here are our typical payment ranges:

Vehicle Type Durham Price Range
Junk Cars $220 - $1,445
Junk Vans $425 - $1,800+
Junk SUVs $515 - $2,000+
Junk Trucks $480 - $2,000+
Used Cars (Running) $1,415 - $5,000+

Actual payouts may vary. We aim to offer more money than local junkyards pay for vehicles. Trucks and SUVs command higher prices, and cars with valuable parts like working engines, transmissions, and catalytic converters are worth significantly more. If you get a higher written offer, we'll try to match or beat it.

What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car in Durham?

To sell your junk car in Durham, North Carolina, you need a valid title, government-issued photo ID, and vehicle registration. Lost titles can be replaced at the North Carolina DMV office or online by submitting Form MVR-4 with the required fee. Some buyers may accept alternative documentation if you can't get a title. The car must be lien-free, and license plates should be removed before sale.

How are junk cars recycled and disposed of in Durham?

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 North Carolina environmental regulations. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 132 tons of metal, safely drained more than 1,589 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 1,309 usable parts from Durham vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
