Junk car removal in Houston

A pickup plan for your vehicle

We consider cars with engine trouble, transmission problems, high mileage, collision damage, or years of sitting unused. A car does not need to be drivable for us to review it. Your offer depends on its details and condition.

Before scheduling, tell us whether the car rolls and steers, whether the tires hold air, and whether the keys are available. A vehicle blocked in a garage or parked in a tight space may need different arrangements from one in an open driveway.

How removal works

Request an offer. Share the year, make, model, condition, title status, and pickup ZIP code.
Agree on the details. Review the offer, towing arrangements, and documents needed before confirming a pickup.
Get paid at pickup. We handle the agreed paperwork and pay you before loading the vehicle.

Before the tow truck arrives

Remove belongings from the cabin, trunk, and storage areas. Have the documents agreed during scheduling ready and make sure the driver can reach the vehicle. Let us know about flat tires, locked wheels, missing keys, or other access problems in advance.

Can you remove my car today?

Same-day pickup may be available in the greater Houston area. Availability depends on the location, schedule, and vehicle access. Call to confirm a pickup window. Do not assume an online request has booked a truck.

Non-running does not mean you have no options

A dead battery, failed engine, or transmission problem can leave a car sitting for months. You do not need to repair it before asking us for an offer. Describe what you know about the problem, how long it has been parked, and whether any major parts have been removed. If the condition is uncertain, say so; an accurate description is more useful than a diagnosis.

Removal from a driveway, garage, or repair shop

Where the vehicle sits matters as much as whether it runs. Tell us if another vehicle blocks it, if there is limited overhead clearance, or if a shop must release it. Confirm access and any arrangements with the property owner before pickup. We will discuss what is needed for your specific location.

Buying your vehicle and arranging towing

Our free towing applies to vehicles we purchase in our service area. This is a vehicle-buying service, so confirm an offer before expecting a removal appointment. For collision damage, see our damaged car buying information. You can also check pickup areas or request a junk car estimate.
