Get More Cash for Junk Cars, Trucks, Vans, and SUVs in Santa Ana
Cash offers for junk cars vary by make, model, condition, mileage, weight, salvage value, and local scrap metal prices (currently $170 to $190 per ton). Here are our typical payment ranges:
| Vehicle Type | Santa Ana Price Range |
|---|---|
| Junk Cars | $230 - $1,430 |
| Junk Vans | $450 - $1,800+ |
| Junk SUVs | $515 - $2,000+ |

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 Santa Ana
Do you pay cash for junk cars near me?
Yes. Our junk car service buys clunkers across all of Santa Ana, including Tustin, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Costa Mesa, Irvine, Orange, Anaheim, Westminster, and Huntington Beach. 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 Santa Ana?
To sell your junk car in Santa Ana, California, you need a valid title, current registration, government-issued photo ID, and all vehicle keys. Lost titles can be replaced at the California DMV or online by submitting form REG 227 and paying the fee, which takes 15-30 days. Some buyers may accept registration and a release of liability form (REG 138) without a title, but this could lower your offer.
How are junk cars recycled and disposed of in Santa Ana?
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 180 tons of metal, safely drained more than 2,163 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 1,783 usable parts from Santa Ana vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
