8 Best Junk Car Buyers in Miami, FL That Pay Cash for Cars
By Clunqr Team, Clunqr Benchmark Data · Updated September 24, 2026 · 8 Miami buyers, checked against physical addresses and seller reviews
Looking for a junk car buyer in Miami that pays cash for cars? Here are 8 of them, with phone numbers, from downtown and the NW 37th Avenue corridor out to West Miami and the south. All eight pay cash for junk cars, including wrecked, non-running and totaled vehicles. We compared each on what they want in a vehicle, whether they tow it away for free, how fast they pay, and what to sort out before you book a pickup. The mechanics of getting cash for a junk car are the same in every state, and we cover them in full.
Key takeaways
- Here are 8 junk car buyers in Miami that pay cash for cars, all of them listed below with addresses and phone numbers.
- Two publish free towing with cash on the spot: BUY Junk Car Miami downtown and We Buy Junk Cars Cash in West Miami. Both also handle the paperwork, which in Florida is more than a nicety. Ask the rest who pays for the tow.
- Miami is a German and European car town, and the buyers reflect that. Branif works in VW and Audi, COR-AUTO built its name on Mercedes. Selling one of those as generic scrap is the expensive mistake here.
- Four of the eight sit in the NW 37th Avenue and NW 46th Street area in Allapattah, within a few minutes of each other. That is three or four competing quotes from one phone session.
- Florida wants the tag off and the title signed. Remove your plate before the truck leaves, because in Florida it stays with you, and file the notice of sale with the FLHSMV so the car stops being yours the day it goes.
We buy junk cars in Miami too, so read this knowing that. Get our number first, then call two or three of the buyers below. We think we will win on price and on not wasting your afternoon. If somebody beats us, take it.

Here Are 8 of the Best Junk Car Buyers in Miami
All eight buy junk cars for cash, and we don't rank them. Search junkyards near me in Miami and you get a map full of pins with no way to tell which ones buy vehicles, so this is that list. The right one depends on what your car is, where you are in the county, and how fast you need it gone. Wrecked, non-running, flood-damaged and totaled cars are routine for every buyer here. Call two or three, because the quotes you get back will not be the same.

How do you sell a junk car for cash in Miami?
The sequence is the same whichever buyer you use. Describe the car accurately, gather more than one number, compare what you net after towing, sign the title over, and take payment before the car leaves.
- 1
Write down the truth about the car
Year, make, model, mileage, condition, what runs and what is missing. Selling your car goes wrong when a buyer finds a surprise on site, because that is what gets the offer cut in the driveway.
- 2
Get more than one quote
Never work from a single number. Four of the eight sit within a few minutes of each other around NW 37th Avenue and NW 46th Street, so three quotes is one phone session. Add one of the dedicated buyers who will come to you, and an instant cash offer online gives you a fourth in about two minutes.
- 3
Compare after towing
BUY Junk Car Miami and We Buy Junk Cars Cash both publish free towing with cash. The other six do not publish towing terms, and a courtesy tow usually comes back out of your offer, so ask every one of them for the net cash figure you'll be handed.
- 4
Sign the title, pull the tag
Title signed over, bill of sale for your records, tag off before the truck leaves. In Florida the license plate stays with you, not the car, and you can transfer it to your next vehicle or surrender it.
- 5
Get paid first, then file the notice of sale
Payment confirmed before the junk vehicle is loaded, then cancel the insurance. File the notice of sale with the FLHSMV so anything the new owner does stops coming back to you.
Before the truck arrives: have your title and photo ID ready, remove the tag, take out your belongings, and don't cancel insurance until the car is gone.
Miami junk car selling questions
Who buys junk cars for cash in Miami?
All eight buyers on this page pay cash for junk cars, and wrecked, non-running, flood-damaged and totaled vehicles are routine for every one of them. BUY Junk Car Miami downtown and We Buy Junk Cars Cash in West Miami both publish free towing with cash on the spot and handle the paperwork. COR-AUTO and Branif are the premium and German specialists in Allapattah, with US1 covering south Dade and MD, Bud's and Chavez filling out the northwest.
Does the make of my car change who I should call in Miami?
Yes, and in this city it matters. Branif Used Auto Parts on NW 46th Street is a Volkswagen and Audi specialist, and COR-AUTO on NW 37th Avenue built its name on Mercedes Benz before widening into other major brands. A German car sold to a general yard gets priced on metal and the converter; sold to a buyer whose inventory is built around it, the rest of the car is worth something. MD Used Auto Parts is the call if the engine and transmission still work.
Will a Miami junk car buyer tow my car for free?
Two of the eight publish it. BUY Junk Car Miami advertises free towing with cash on the spot and quotes handled by text and photos, and We Buy Junk Cars Cash offers free towing with same-day payment and handles the paperwork. The other six do not publish towing terms, so ask, because a buyer that tows as a courtesy usually takes the cost back out of your offer.
What paperwork do I need to junk a car in Florida?
The Florida title signed over to the buyer, your photo ID, and a bill of sale you keep a copy of. Remove the license plate before the truck leaves, because in Florida the tag belongs to you rather than the car. Then file the notice of sale with the FLHSMV, which is the step people skip: until it is filed, the car is still associated with you. Cancel the insurance after pickup, not before. The full checklist is in what you need to sell a car to a junkyard.
Where are Miami's junk car buyers?
Clustered in Allapattah, mostly. COR-AUTO on NW 37th Avenue, Branif on NW 46th Street, Bud's on NW South River Drive and Chavez on NW 54th Street all sit within a few minutes of each other, which makes that corner of the city the easiest place to collect competing quotes. BUY Junk Car Miami works out of downtown, We Buy Junk Cars Cash out of West Miami, MD from NW 72nd Street, and US1 is down in south Dade.
Should I call more than one Miami junk car buyer?
Yes. Four of the eight are within a few minutes of each other in Allapattah, so several quotes cost you one phone session rather than an afternoon of driving. Ask each for the net amount after towing rather than the headline figure, send photos where a buyer will take them, and say the make early, because a VW, an Audi or a Mercedes has a dedicated buyer in this city who will not price it as scrap.
