What Counts as a Junk Car

If Any of These
Apply, We’ll Take It.

Not sure if your car qualifies for free removal? In Wisconsin, a vehicle is considered “junk” the moment it costs more to fix, register, or store than it’s worth. Most of what we pick up falls into one of these categories — and yes, we still pay cash for all of them.

  • Won’t start or run
  • Totaled or wrecked
  • Failed WI emissions
  • Flood or fire damage
  • Expired registration
  • Rusted frame / body
  • Missing engine or parts
  • Parked > 6 months
  • Repair cost exceeds value
  • Abandoned on property
  • No title / lost title
  • Salvage or rebuilt title

Still not sure? If it has a VIN and has been a problem — call us at (414) 367-7245. If we can’t remove it, we’ll tell you who can.

📦 Moving Out

Leaving the State or Downsizing

Don’t pay a hauler to tow a junk car to your new place — and don’t abandon it for the new homeowner to deal with. We can pick it up on moving day and hand you cash before the U-Haul leaves the driveway.

Coordinate Pickup
⚖️ Estate & Probate

Inherited a Vehicle You Don’t Want

A parent or relative passed, and there’s a car sitting in the driveway that nobody wants to register, insure, or store. We handle estate paperwork, work with executors and probate attorneys, and can process no-title vehicles under Wisconsin salvage statutes.

🏡 Reclaim Your Space

Driveway, Yard, or Garage Space

You want your garage, driveway, or side yard back. That dead car has been a lawn ornament for too long. We pick up in any condition and leave the spot cleaner than we found it — no leaked fluids, no parts left behind.

Free Up Space

Won’t Start. Won’t Move.

Transmission blown, engine seized, flat tires, dead battery — or maybe you just turned the key one day and nothing happened again. Our flatbed handles vehicles that haven’t moved in years. We bring winches, dollies, and straps.

Haul It Away
🚫 Abandoned Vehicle

It’s on Your Land & Not Yours

A tenant left it, a previous owner left it, or it “just appeared.” Wisconsin statute 342.40 has a specific process for removing abandoned vehicles from private property after 30+ days. We’ll walk you through the notice requirements for your county.

Wisconsin Removal FAQ

Everything You
Need to Know.

Short, honest answers to the questions Wisconsin residents ask most about junk car removal. Don’t see yours? Give us a ring — we’re happy to walk through your specific situation.

Is junk car removal really free in Wisconsin?
Yes. Towing, pickup, and paperwork are 100% free anywhere in Wisconsin — and we pay you cash for the vehicle on top of that. There are no hidden fees, no service charges, and no deductions from your quote. The amount you’re quoted is the amount you receive in cash at pickup. Zero exceptions.
How far across Wisconsin do you remove junk cars?
We remove junk cars from every county in Wisconsin — all 72 of them. Our flatbed fleet covers Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Appleton, Kenosha, Racine, Eau Claire, La Crosse, Wausau, Stevens Point, Sheboygan, Fond du Lac, Janesville, Beloit, Oshkosh, and everywhere in between — including rural addresses, farmsteads, and remote properties with gravel access.
Do I have to be home when you remove the car?
Usually, yes — we need a valid state-issued photo ID to complete the paperwork and hand over cash. If you’re an out-of-state owner, an estate administrator, or can’t be present, we can arrange remote paperwork via email or overnight mail in advance. Just tell us when you book the pickup.
Can you remove a car that’s been sitting for years and won’t start?
Absolutely — this is the most common call we get. Flat tires, dead battery, seized engine, missing parts, rusted-out frame — none of it matters. Our flatbed wreckers can load a vehicle that hasn’t moved in a decade. We also pull cars out of grass that’s grown over them, tight driveways, and behind sheds.
Can I sell a junk car in Wisconsin without a title?
Yes. As a licensed Wisconsin salvage dealer, we purchase vehicles without a title using the Wisconsin DOT Junk Vehicle Bill of Sale (Form MV2459). You’ll need a matching state-issued photo ID and the vehicle must be registered in your name in DMV records. We bring the form to pickup and walk you through each field.
What if the car is abandoned on my property or belongs to someone else?
Wisconsin has a specific abandoned vehicle process under statute 342.40. If a vehicle has been on your private property for 30+ days without permission, you can have it removed after notifying local authorities and providing written notice to the registered owner. Call us — we’ve handled this process hundreds of times and can walk you through the exact paperwork required for your county.
What if my HOA or the city sent me a warning letter?
We prioritize these pickups. If you have an HOA citation or a municipal code violation notice giving you 7–14 days to remove a vehicle, call and mention the deadline. In most Wisconsin metros we can be on-site within 24 hours and remove the car before the fine period expires.
How much can I expect to get paid?
Most Wisconsin junk cars pay out between $200 and $1,500 depending on year, make, weight, and whether components like the engine, transmission, or catalytic converter are salvageable. Heavier vehicles like trucks, SUVs, and diesel pickups generally pay more. We quote based on live scrap metal pricing plus recoverable part value.
Do you remove cars from garages, side yards, or tight spaces?
Yes. Our drivers have pulled vehicles out of detached garages, backyard grass, gravel driveways, farm fields, and narrow side yards. If a vehicle can be rolled or dragged to accessible ground, we can load it. For truly inaccessible situations (collapsed structure, etc.), we’ll discuss options when you call.
Is junk car removal legal in Wisconsin? Do I notify the DMV?
Yes, removal is fully legal when conducted by a licensed Wisconsin salvage dealer. After pickup, remove your license plates (in Wisconsin, plates stay with the seller) and file a Notice of Transfer with the Wisconsin DMV within 30 days. We provide the form at pickup and a guide on how to submit it online through the WisDOT website.
