Absolutely. We purchase vehicles in any condition — running or not, wrecked, flooded, or missing parts. Keep in mind that missing major components (like the engine, transmission, or catalytic converter) will affect the final cash offer.
The process involves several steps:
  • All hazardous fluids (oil, coolant, fuel) are safely drained.
  • Usable parts are salvaged to be resold or remanufactured.
  • The remaining steel and aluminum shell is crushed.
  • Metals are sent to a shredding facility, separated, and recycled to build new products.
