Questions About Selling Your Junk Car
What do people ask before selling a junk car to you?
Most callers ask Cash For Junk Cars Tim's LLC the same few things: whether we tow for free (yes), how they get paid (cash, Zelle or Cash App at pickup), whether we take dead or wrecked cars (yes), and what happens without a title. The answers below cover those and more for Chicago sellers.
If your question isn't here, our guides go deeper on titles, tickets and city rules, or you can call us. To get a number now, use the offer form.
Questions people ask us
- Do you buy cars that don't run?
- Yes. Non-running, wrecked and stripped cars are most of what we buy. Tell us how the car sits so we bring the right hookup.
- Is towing really free?
- Yes. There's no towing charge and nothing is deducted from the offer for the tow.
- How and when do I get paid?
- At pickup, by cash, Zelle or Cash App, whichever you prefer.
- Can you pick up today?
- Often, yes, especially if you call in the morning. We don't promise a time window until we've talked.
- Does the offer expire?
- No. The offer stands as long as the car is in the condition you described.
- Can you take several cars at once?
- Yes. A single trip can haul away two or three vehicles.
- Do I need the title?
- Tell us what papers you have. Illinois rules decide which papers work for a scrap sale, and we check them with you by phone.
- Who keeps the license plates?
- Take them off before we tow the car. Illinois plates stay with you; our plates guide explains your options.
