Not running or damaged
Cars that don't run, and damaged or accident cars
Dead engine, bad transmission, collision or flood damage. A car does not have to drive to be sold or recycled.
- It does not have to start
- Accident, flood and rust damage
- Tell us where it sits and how to reach it
Tell us about your car
Two short steps. No obligation to sell.
- 1. Your car
- 2. How to reach you

Doesn't run
Won't start, won't move
Choose "No, it does not run" in the form. Tell the buyer where the car is sitting and anything that makes it hard to reach, like deep snow, a narrow lane or flat tires.
Access can affect what a buyer offers, so it is worth asking about before you agree.
My car doesn't run
Damaged or in an accident
Collision, flood or rust damage
A damaged car can still be sold for its parts and its metal. Photos of the damage help a buyer understand it, so add a few if you can.
If your insurer has written the car off, have that paperwork ready for the buyer.

Details that help with a non-running or damaged car
- Where the car is: driveway, garage, field or roadside.
- Whether it rolls, steers and has all four wheels.
- Whether the keys and ownership are available.
- Anything that makes it hard to reach.
We do not promise free towing or a fixed pickup time. Ask the buyer whether towing or access changes the amount before you agree.
