Junk car pickup across the metro Milwaukee area
Inside about a 40-mile radius of downtown, the answer to "do you pick up junk cars in my area" is almost always yes — and the tow is included at every one of those addresses. Running or not, wrecked, flooded, no keys, no title.

Metro-wide dispatch
Closest flatbed routed to your address
How we get the nearest
flatbed to you
We send the closest available truck to your address — not the next one in line.
Your address becomes the anchor
Once your quote is set, dispatch looks at where you are first — not at where the yard is. Everything after that gets planned around your street.
We find who's already near it
Dispatch checks which driver is working nearest your ZIP right now. On any given day the crew is spread through the metro, clearing cars from the South Side, the inner suburbs, and the outer towns at the same time.
That truck gets routed to you
So a pickup in Franklin or Menomonee Falls doesn't wait on a truck coming all the way from the yard. Whoever can reach you soonest is who you get.
It also means you don't get penalized for living on the edge of the map. A seller in Sussex gets the same nearest-driver logic as one in Bay View. You give us the vehicle and the address; we find the truck already closest to it, and the driver brings the cash and the paperwork to your curb.
Where we pick up, and why
the tow is always free
About a 40-mile radius from downtown is the whole footprint, and every address inside it works the same way. Hauling comes out of our offer math, never your pocket — a Riverwest alley, a Wauwatosa garage, a Greenfield driveway, or the far edge of the metro in Menomonee Falls all cost you the same nothing.
You don't need the car to run, and you don't need to move it an inch.
The flatbed comes to wherever it's parked — a side street, a back lot, a driveway it hasn't left in years — and the driver loads it there. That holds for every vehicle we buy, from a single dead sedan to a commercial fleet lot.
Because hauling is genuinely included at every address in range, the only thing your address changes is timing, not price. The coverage map below breaks the metro into its three tiers so you can find your own city and the outer towns we still reach.
Jump to the coverage map →What "same-day" means
for your address
Same-day pickup is the standard across the whole area, and for most of the metro it means a flatbed reaches you the day you accept the offer. How early depends on how close you are to the core and when you call — which is why it's worth thinking about it by tier rather than as one flat promise.
Milwaukee proper
Bay View, the South Side, and the rest of the city core. A truck is usually already working nearby, so these are the quickest addresses to reach once your quote is set.
Quickest to reachInner suburbs
West Allis, Wauwatosa and the rest of the ring just outside the city line. Close enough that a nearby driver is nearly always mid-route when your quote comes in.
Same day, typicallyOuter metro
Waukesha, Pewaukee, Sussex, Oak Creek and the towns out along the radius. Still same-day in the large majority of cases, scheduled around the driver already routing through that part of the map.
Same day, scheduledLate calls, far edge
Call late in the evening from the outer edge and the honest answer is that your pickup may land first thing the following morning rather than that night.
Next morningNone of that touches the offer or the tow — the tier only affects when the flatbed arrives, never what you're paid or what you owe. Give us your address when you get your quote and we'll tell you the realistic window for your street.
How it works: quote, pickup, cash
Identical at every address in range.
Get your quote
Tell us the year, make, model, and condition — or just the VIN, since if it has a VIN we can quote it. That's enough to price the vehicle as salvage and give you a real number — typical and estimated rather than guaranteed until we have the details.
Schedule the pickup
Accept the offer and we schedule a same-day flatbed to your address, routed as described above. The tow is built in, so nothing about the pickup comes out of what you're paid.
Get your cash
The driver confirms the vehicle matches what you described, handles the title or no-title paperwork on the spot, loads the car, and hands you cash before leaving. We buy with or without a title.
There's no drawn-out inspection and no reason to clean the car out beyond grabbing your plates and personal items. No title? Mention it when you call and dispatch will name the paperwork that stands in for one.
Our coverage: 20 cities
in three tiers
Easiest to picture as three tiers rippling out from downtown. Every tier gets the same tow and the same pickup standard — the tiers are just a map of the area, from the city core to the outer metro.
Milwaukee proper
The city neighborhoods — Walker's Point, Bay View, Riverwest, the East Side, Bronzeville, and the South Side. This is where the Muskego Avenue yard sits and where trucks work most of the day.
Inner suburbs
The ring just outside the city line, which shades right into Waukesha County — so a seller in that county is well inside range.

Searching for a buyer within 50 miles of Milwaukee? The Southeast Wisconsin run also carries south down the lakeshore.
Don't see your city? Give us the ZIP when you get your quote — if it's in range, nothing changes about the tow or the offer. Cities in red have a pickup page of their own; the rest are covered exactly the same way, they just don't have a page yet. Start with junk car pickup in Milwaukee if you're inside the city.
The cities with a
page of their own
Several of these cities carry a page of their own, each written around that address: how pickups run on its streets, and what sellers there tend to ask first. Everywhere between and around them is covered on exactly the same terms.
Why an outer-metro pickup
costs you the same
No surcharge for distance, no "you're too far out" fee, and no floor your car has to clear before we'll come get it. A pickup in New Berlin is the same deal as one two blocks from the yard.
The reason distance doesn't cost you anything is in how the offer gets built. We price a junk car on what it's worth as salvage — four inputs, and not one of them cares which suburb the car is parked in:
A dead Civic in Franklin and the same Civic in the city get quoted the same way — and hauled for the same nothing.
I.1
Year, make, and model
What the vehicle is, and how much demand there is for its parts.
I.2
Curb weight
The recoverable steel and aluminum the car carries.
I.3
Condition and completeness
An intact catalytic converter is the single biggest line item on most vehicles; wheels, battery, alternator, and starter add more.
I.4
The daily scrap index
Live market pricing for steel, aluminum, and copper on the day of pickup.
Frequently asked questions
Anything else, ask when you call — or message dispatch.
Anywhere inside the roughly 40-mile radius, at your own address — the flatbed comes to you and the driver pays cash at the curb. You don't drive it anywhere or drop it at a yard; the pickup and the payment happen wherever the vehicle is parked.
We will, across the whole metro shown on the map above — city core, inner suburbs, and outer towns. Dispatch routes the closest available flatbed to your ZIP, so where you are decides which driver comes, not whether we come at all.
Bring it up when you call, before pickup is booked. Wisconsin normally completes a sale on the title, and a registered owner whose copy is missing can request a replacement through the DMV. Tell dispatch which situation you're in and they'll name the paperwork that fits.
Keep whatever is still bolted to it — an intact catalytic converter is the single biggest line item, and wheels, battery, alternator and starter each add on top. Heavier vehicles bring more scrap weight, and having the title in hand keeps things simplest.
Yes, at every address in range with no exceptions. Hauling is built into the offer math, so nothing comes off for the tow, the distance, or a car that won't roll onto the truck on its own. The number you accept is the number you're handed.
Cars, pickups, SUVs, vans, motorcycles and ATVs, RVs and boats, and commercial fleet lots — running or not, wrecked, flooded, or long dead. If it has a VIN, we can quote it. The full breakdown is on the vehicles we buy page.
