Get More Cash for Junk Cars, Trucks, Vans, and SUVs in Joliet
We determine cash offers for junk cars using current market value and factors like make, model, condition, mileage, weight, salvage value, and scrap metal prices in your area (currently $160 to $180 per ton). See our price ranges below:
| Vehicle Type | Joliet Price Range | 
|---|---|
| Junk Cars | $250 - $1,440 | 
| Junk Vans | $420 - $1,800+ | 
| Junk SUVs | $535 - $2,000+ | 
| Junk Trucks | $480 - $2,000+ | 
| Used Cars (Running) | $1,415 - $5,000+ | 
Actual payouts may vary. We strive to pay top dollar for any used car, often beating local junkyard prices. Larger vehicles such as trucks and SUVs, and those with valuable parts such as a working engine, transmission, and catalytic converter, are worth more money than smaller cars or those with no valuable parts. If you get a higher written offer, we'll try to match or beat it.

Common Questions About Junking Vehicles for Cash in Joliet
Do you pay cash for junk cars near me?
Yes. Our junk car service buys clunkers across all of Joliet, including Crest Hill, Lockport, New Lenox, Shorewood, Plainfield, Romeoville, Channahon, Minooka, and Rockdale. 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 in Joliet?
To sell your junk car in Joliet, Illinois, you need a valid vehicle title, state ID/driver's license, and registration. Lost titles can be replaced by submitting Form VSD 190 to the Illinois Secretary of State with the required fee. While selling without a title is possible using a notarized bill of sale and Form VSD 190, having a valid title ensures the smoothest transaction.
How are junk cars recycled and disposed of in Joliet?
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 Illinois environmental regulations. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 80 tons of metal, safely drained more than 957 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 788 usable parts from Joliet vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
