Free Junk Car Removal

When you sell your junk car to Clunqr, we pick it up for free. Not "free with conditions" or "free after deductions" genuinely free. We come to you, load your vehicle, and you keep every dollar of your offer.

This might sound too simple, but that's the point. Selling a junk car shouldn't be complicated. You have a car you don't want. We want to buy it. The removal is just how we get it from your driveway to ours.

This page walks you through exactly what happens during a Clunqr pickup so you know what to expect; from scheduling to payment to watching your old car roll away.

Is Junk Car Removal Actually Free?

People are understandably skeptical when they hear "free towing." In a world where everything seems to have hidden fees, it's reasonable to wonder where the catch is.

Here's the straightforward answer: towing is part of our business model, not an add-on service. We're buying your car, which means we need to get it from you to us. The cost of that transport is built into how we operate it doesn't come out of your pocket or get deducted from your offer.

Think of it this way: when you sell something on eBay, the buyer pays for shipping. When you sell a car to a dealership, they don't charge you to drive it onto their lot. Same principle here. We're the buyer, so we handle the logistics.

This is different from some buyers who advertise "free towing" but then deduct $50-$150 from your payment when the driver arrives. That's not free, that's hidden pricing. We quote you a number, and that's the number you receive.

If you've encountered buyers who play games with towing fees, you're not alone. It's one of the most common complaints in this industry. The good news is that legitimate buyers like Clunqr don't operate this way, learn more about who pays the most cash for junk cars and what separates trustworthy buyers from the rest.

Scheduling Your Junk Car Pickup

Once you accept your offer, the next step is choosing a pickup time. This part is simple: you tell us when works for you.

We offer pickups seven days a week, including evenings and weekends in most areas. You're not working around our schedule, we're working around yours. Need us there before you leave for work? We can do early morning. Only free on Saturday afternoon? That works too.

When you schedule, you'll choose a pickup window rather than a specific minute. Pickup windows are typically two to three hours, which gives our drivers flexibility to handle traffic, weather, and the unpredictability of the road.

On the day of pickup, your driver will call or text when they're on the way, usually 15-30 minutes before arrival.

Same-Day Pickup

In many areas, we can pick up your car the same day you accept your offer. If you call in the morning, there's a good chance we can have a driver to you by afternoon or evening. Same-day availability depends on your location and our current schedule, but it's often possible so just ask.

What Happens on Pickup Day

Pickup day is designed to be quick and painless. Most pickups take 15-30 minutes from the time our driver arrives to the time your car is loaded and you have cash in hand.

1. Driver Arrival

Your driver will call when they're close. When they arrive, they'll introduce themselves and confirm a few details: your name, the vehicle they're picking up, and the agreed price.

2. Vehicle Verification

The driver will take a brief look at the vehicle to confirm it matches what you described. This isn't a detailed mechanical inspection, it's just a quick check that the car is what we expected. If you were accurate in your description, this takes about two minutes.

3. Paperwork

You'll sign over the title and complete a simple bill of sale. Our drivers handle this paperwork regularly, so they can walk you through it step by step. They'll show you exactly where to sign and make sure everything is filled out correctly.

If you have questions about what you're signing, ask. And remember: never sign anything with blank fields. Every space should be filled in before your signature goes on the document.

Having paperwork to prove ownership of the vehicle is one of the requirements for selling junk cars for cash.

4. Payment

Once the paperwork is complete, you get paid. Cash, on the spot, before we load your car. You count it, confirm it's correct, and the transaction is done.

We pay before loading because that's how it should work. You shouldn't have to watch your car disappear down the street and hope payment shows up later. The money is in your hands before the car leaves your property.

5. Loading and Departure

With payment complete, our driver loads your vehicle onto the tow truck or flatbed. Depending on your car's condition and location, this usually takes 5-10 minutes. Once loaded, you're done.

What Kind of Tow Truck Will Pick Up My Junk Car?

We use either traditional tow trucks or flatbed carriers, depending on what's appropriate for your vehicle and what's available in your area.

Flatbed Carriers

Flatbeds are the most common choice for junk car removal. The entire vehicle sits on the truck bed, which works whether your car runs or not. Flatbeds are especially useful when:

• Your car doesn't run or roll
• The transmission is damaged or stuck in park
• Multiple tires are flat or missing
• The vehicle is in a tight space

Wheel-Lift Tow Trucks

Traditional tow trucks lift the front or rear wheels and tow with the other wheels on the ground. These work well for vehicles that roll freely and are in accessible locations.

You Don't Need to Worry About This

When you schedule your pickup, we'll ask a few questions about your vehicle's condition and location. Based on your answers, we dispatch the right equipment. You don't need to request a specific truck type, we figure that out.

Getting Paid: What to Expect

Payment happens at pickup, in person, before we take the car. This is non-negotiable; it's how we operate.

Our drivers carry cash because it's the simplest and most secure payment method for both parties. You don't have to wait for a check to clear. There's no risk of payment not arriving. You walk away from the transaction with money in your hand.

The Price You're Quoted Is the Price You Get

When you accept an offer from Clunqr, that number is locked in, assuming your vehicle matches what you described. We don't play games where the driver shows up and suddenly "finds problems" that reduce your payout. Your quote is your quote.

We Pick Up Cars in Any Condition

When we say "any condition," we mean it. Our towing is free whether your car is pristine or a complete wreck:

Running vehicles : Cars that drive fine but you just don't want anymore.

Non-running vehicles : Engine problems, transmission failure, electrical issues, if it doesn't start, we still want it.

Accident-damaged vehicles : Front-end collisions, rear-end damage, side impacts, rollovers.

Flood and fire damage : Water damage, smoke damage, fire damage.

Incomplete vehicles : Missing the engine? No transmission? No wheels? We buy cars with missing parts.

Long-sitting vehicles : Been parked in the driveway for years? Covered in vines? We've seen it all.

The condition affects your offer, but it doesn't affect whether we'll pick up for free. Towing is included regardless.
