Junk RVs, Campers and Travel Trailers
Do you buy old RVs and campers?
Yes. Cash For Junk Cars Tim's LLC buys junk motorhomes, campers and travel trailers from Chicago's Southwest Side and nearby suburbs, running or not. Tell us the size, where it's parked and how it sits, and we arrange the right tow for it. Our truck hauls it off at no charge, and you leave with the money that same visit.
Old RVs and campers are bulky, and that’s usually why people call us: the motorhome hasn’t moved in years, the pop-up camper takes half the driveway, or a parent’s travel trailer is sitting in a storage lot that keeps billing.
What we need to know
- Type and length. A motorhome, a travel trailer and a pop-up camper each need a different tow, so give us the length if you know it.
- Where it sits. Driveway, side yard, storage lot or a relative’s farm. Overhead wires, trees and tight turns matter for something this tall.
- Condition. Water damage, a dead engine or flat tires are common. Tell us what’s wrong and we’ll price it.
We arrange the right tow for each one. Towing is free either way.
Paperwork
Motorhomes are titled vehicles in Illinois, and so are many trailers. Have the title ready, or tell us what you have instead and we’ll confirm on the call. If the RV belonged to a family member who died, our deceased owner guide explains the transfer.
Clearing it out
Remove personal things, propane tanks and anything else you want to keep before the pickup. For value, the weight of the frame and what’s still in it matter most; our value guide explains why. For a box truck or semi, see commercial vehicles.
Questions people ask us
- Do you take travel trailers that have no engine?
- Yes. Trailers and pop-up campers are towed rather than driven, so tell us the length, the hitch type and whether the tires hold air.
- Is an RV titled in Illinois?
- Motorhomes and many trailers are titled vehicles in Illinois, so tell us what papers you have and we'll confirm what the sale needs on the call.
- The camper is in a storage lot. Can you pick it up there?
- Yes. Clear any balance with the lot, tell them we're coming, and give us the address and gate hours.
