Pickup in Reno

All of Reno — Nevada's third-largest city and the Washoe County seat — plus the surrounding Truckee Meadows, including unincorporated Washoe County addresses such as Sun Valley and the North Valleys. For a rural address, start the offer and we'll confirm pickup at scheduling.

Northern Nevada pickups are scheduled when you accept: you choose from the open windows instead of waiting on a callback. Have the keys and title (or your title status) ready and the handover takes minutes.

Local know-how

What we see most in Reno

Snow, road treatment and cars that sat all winter

Rust, dead batteries and flat tires on a car parked through the cold months don't stop a sale. The condition questions ask about them, so the offer already accounts for it.

Instant offer vs. trade-in vs. private sale

A dealer trade-in only pays if you buy from that dealer. A private sale can pay more but means listings and strangers. An instant offer is a known number with a free tow — get it first and compare.

Selling a car you no longer drive

Non-running, wrecked or long-parked cars are priced from your answers. Tell us about access — a steep driveway, a snowed-in spot, a garage — when you schedule so the right truck arrives.

Junk or running

Junk cars in Reno and Sparks

Not every car we buy in Northern Nevada runs. Wrecked, non-running, snowed-in and long-parked cars in Reno and Sparks get the same firm online offer, a free tow and payment at pickup.

What a junk car gets

A junkyard prices mostly by weight. We price the car itself: year, make, model, condition and parts, so a car with value beyond its metal is paid for it.

See what your junk car is worth

Us or a scrap yard

Scrap and self-service yards, such as Pick-n-Pull in Sparks, buy junk cars too. Get their number and ours on the same day. Our tow is free from anywhere in Reno or Sparks and never comes off the price.

Compare where to sell

Sparks and the North Valleys too

Sparks, Spanish Springs, Sun Valley and the North Valleys are on the same scheduled pickups. You choose a pickup time from the windows offered when you accept.

Selling a car in Sparks

A junk car in public view

In unincorporated Washoe County, junk vehicles stored outdoors in public view must be removed or screened. Selling it closes that out.

Pickup day

What to have ready

Full Nevada paperwork checklist
  • Your title

    You sign it over at pickup. No title? Say so in the quote and it tells you what your case needs.

  • Photo ID

    The name on it should match the name on the title.

  • Odometer reading

    Written on the title for 2011 and newer cars. The driver checks it with you.

  • Keys, if you have them

    Missing keys don't end the sale. The quote asks, and the offer reflects it.

How much is my car worth?

What actually sets your cash offer

Nobody can price a car honestly without knowing the car — that's why we don't print "up to" numbers. These five things build yours, and they're the same five for every car.

  • The exact vehicleYear, make, model and trim. A VIN pins it down hardest, which gets you the sharpest number.
  • MileageA rough figure is fine. It matters less than people expect on older cars, more on newer ones.
  • ConditionDoes it start and drive? Engine, transmission, body, airbags, flood or fire — and whether the catalytic converter is still on.
  • Title statusClean, salvage, rebuilt or no title in hand — each prices differently. No title doesn't end the quote.
  • Where it sitsYour ZIP sets the pickup. Anywhere in Reno the tow is free and never subtracted.

Paperwork guide

Reno paperwork guide

Titles, the DMV, the local rules and what to do after the sale, each with its source.

The quote asks which title you have — clean, salvage/rebuilt or none — and the offer states exactly what your case needs. Here's what each situation means in Nevada.

California title (Tahoe and Bay Area moves)

Many Reno cars still carry a California title. A valid out-of-state title can be signed over as-is; if it's lost, only the state that issued it can replace it. Say so in the quote and the offer lists what it needs.

Source: Nevada DMV — Titles

Title in a parent's name (UNR students)

Only the owner on the title — or someone with legal authority to sign — can sell the car. If it's in a parent's name, they sign, or they give you a Nevada Power of Attorney (VP-136).

Source: Nevada DMV — VP-136

Lost or damaged Nevada title

If the car was last titled in Nevada with no lien, the owner can get a duplicate with form VP-012 — by mail or in person, usually about two to three weeks. Pick "I don't have the title" in the quote first: the offer says whether you need it.

Source: Nevada DMV — Titles

Salvage or rebuilt title

Nevada brands a title salvage when damage tops 65% of the car's value or after flood damage, and a salvage-titled car can only be sold to a licensed rebuilder, wrecker or dealer. A Rebuilt brand is permanent. Choose Salvage/Rebuilt in the quote; the offer is built for it.

Source: Nevada DMV — Salvage vehicles

Still financed / lien on the title

We only buy cars that are fully owned — no active loan or lease. After payoff the lender releases the lien on the title or gives you a Lien Release (VP 186).

Source: Nevada DMV — Titles

The owner passed away

Without probate, Nevada uses an Affidavit for Transfer (VP 024) — at least 40 days after the death, with a certified death certificate and notice to other heirs. Trust-owned cars use VP 188.

FAQ

Questions Reno sellers ask

Where can I get cash for my junk car in Reno, NV?

Scrap yards, self-service parts yards and cash-for-cars buyers all buy junk cars in Reno and Sparks. We price the car itself from your answers, tow it free from anywhere in Reno or Sparks, and pay you at pickup. Get our offer online in about two minutes and compare.

What does a junkyard pay for a car in Reno?

Most junkyards price a junk car mainly by its weight in scrap metal, and many take towing off the price if you can't deliver it. Our Las Vegas price guide shows real offers and the scrap-weight math, which works the same way in Reno.

Do I need a title to sell a junk car in Reno?

Most buyers want one, and self-service yards often only buy with a title. Pick "I don't have the title" in our quote and the offer says whether the sale can go ahead or needs a Nevada duplicate title first.

How do I get the most money for a junk car in Reno?

Get two or three offers on the same day, and check that towing is free and not taken off the price. A car that still runs or has good parts is worth more than its metal, so say so in the quote.

How does cash for cars work in Reno?

Enter the year, make, model, mileage and condition online or by phone and get a firm offer in about two minutes. Accept it, pick a pickup window, and the driver checks the car against your description, collects the title and keys, and pays you at pickup. The tow is free and never deducted.

Can I sell my car online in Reno?

Yes. The quote, acceptance and scheduling all happen online. The only in-person step is the handover: the driver confirms the car matches what you described and pays you at pickup.

Do you buy junk cars for cash offers in Reno?

Yes. Junk, wrecked and non-running cars are priced from the condition questions, and the tow truck comes with the right equipment. A car that won't start or roll is normal for us.

Is an instant offer better than a vehicle trade-in in Reno?

Sometimes. A trade-in value only counts toward a car you buy from that dealer; our offer is a straight sale with no purchase required. A private sale can pay more than either, but takes time. Get our free offer first and compare.

How soon can you pick up in Reno?

Pickup windows in Northern Nevada are scheduled when you accept the offer — you choose from the windows open at that point. Winter storms can shift a window, but pickups run year-round.

What if I don't have the title?

Choose "I don't have the title" in the quote. The offer tells you whether the sale can go ahead as-is or whether you need a Nevada duplicate title first, so you know before anyone drives out.

Can I sell a car that still has a loan on it?

No — we only buy cars you own outright, with no active loan or lease. Pay it off and get the lien released first, then get an offer.

What do I do with my plates and the DMV after selling?

In Nevada the plates stay with you: move them to another vehicle or surrender them to the DMV. Then file a resale notification with the Nevada DMV so you are not liable for the car after the sale.

"You're based in Las Vegas — will anyone really come to Reno?"

Yes. Reno is on our scheduled Northern Nevada pickups; you pick from the open windows when you accept, and the tow is free.

"It sat under snow all winter."

Dead battery, flat tires, road-treatment rust underneath — the condition questions ask about all of it, so the offer already accounts for it.

"It won't pass smog."

That's the buyer's problem in Nevada, not yours. Say it has a check-engine light or failed a test; the offer prices it in.

"Will the price drop when the truck shows up?"

If the car matches your answers, the number stands. It only changes if the car isn't as described — explained before anything is signed or loaded, so you can decline.

"When do I get paid?"

You're paid at pickup, before the car leaves. Towing is free and never deducted.

Statewide questions — titles, paperwork, payment — are covered in the full FAQ.
