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

We set offers using objective factors such as make, model, condition, mileage, weight, salvage value, and area scrap metal rates (currently $170 to $190 per ton). Typical ranges are:

Vehicle Type Modesto Price Range
Junk Cars $260 - $1,310
Junk Vans $425 - $1,800+
Junk SUVs $510 - $2,000+
Junk Trucks $560 - $2,000+
Used Cars (Running) $1,250 - $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.

Todd's Expert Take

I'm Todd, founder of Junk Car Medics. I've been helping people sell junk cars for cash in Modesto 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 20 vehicles for an average price of $429. 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 About Junking Vehicles for Cash in Modesto

Do you pay cash for junk cars near me?

Yes. Our junk car service buys clunkers across all of Modesto, including Riverbank, Ceres, Turlock, Oakdale, Patterson, Manteca, Tracy, Lodi, and Stockton. 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 Modesto?

To sell your junk car in Modesto, California, you'll need the vehicle title, registration, photo ID, and all keys. If you've lost your title, get a replacement by submitting Form REG 227 to the California DMV at 124 Burney Street in Modesto or by mail. Alternatively, you can file for a lien sale with proof of ownership through the DMV if you don't have a title, though this takes longer.

How are junk cars recycled and disposed of in Modesto?

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 California environmental regulations. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 111 tons of metal, safely drained more than 1,326 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 1,093 usable parts from Modesto vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
