When a car has reached the end of its life, when the repair bill is higher than the car is worth, or when it has simply sat unused for years, it counts as a scrap car. We buy it for what it is genuinely worth and recycle it responsibly, with no shop visit and no street address to drive to, because we come to you across the Edmonton metro and the Fort Saskatchewan area.
Same-day pickup available in most cases.
Running or not, wrecked, old or scrap.

What Counts as a Scrap Car
A scrap car is a vehicle at the end of its useful life, valued for its metal and salvageable parts rather than for driving. Common examples include:
- A car with a seized or blown engine
- Heavy rust or frame damage
- Collision or hail damage beyond economical repair
- A failed inspection that is not worth fixing
- A vehicle that has been sitting unregistered for years
Not every old car is a scrap car. A car that still runs but you no longer want often fits our junk car removal service, and a car that will not start but is otherwise sound may be a better match for how we buy non-running cars. Scrap cars are the ones whose value comes mainly from recycling, because the metal and reusable components are worth more than the car as a runner.
How Your Scrap Car Offer Is Built
Vehicle weight
Heavier vehicles carry more recoverable metal, so they often draw a higher base value.
Scrap-metal price
The metal sells by weight at market rates, so the daily price moves your number up or down.
Salvageable parts
In-demand parts - a good catalytic converter, alternator or clean body panels - can raise the offer.
Year, make & condition
A complete non-runner is valued differently than a stripped shell. We price on the details you give us.
Your offer on a scrap car is based on four things: the vehicle's weight, the current scrap-metal price, any salvageable parts, and its year, make, and condition. A complete scrap car is usually worth more than a stripped shell, because more of it can be recycled or reused. We quote directionally first, then confirm the figure once we see the VIN and the vehicle.
Scrap-metal prices move month to month, so two similar cars can be worth different amounts at different times. We do not advertise inflated headline prices. When the car matches the details you give us, the quoted offer is what you are paid at pickup. We explain clearly first if the vehicle turns out to be materially different. For a clearer picture of what your scrap car is worth, call with your VIN and a short description of the car.

Free Towing, Same-Day Pickup, and Payment at Pickup

Free towing and free pickup are included on every vehicle we buy. We never charge for the tow, and the cost is never taken out of your offer, whether the car rolls onto the truck or has to be winched. Same-day pickup is available in most cases, depending on your location and the day's schedule, and we work around you across our service area.
You are paid at pickup by cash or e-transfer, at the moment we collect the car. We also handle the paperwork with you: we complete a signed Alberta bill of sale, your licence plates come off the car, and we explain the Notice of Disposition so liability leaves you on the sale date. Meet Sam, who oversees every quote and pickup, so a real person is accountable for how your sale is handled.
Responsible Recycling for Every Scrap Car
Every scrap car we buy is sent through responsible recycling rather than left to rust or dumped. In proper end-of-life vehicle recycling, fluids, the battery, tires, and other hazardous components are handled safely first. Recoverable materials such as steel, aluminum, copper, and glass are then processed. Handling a car this way keeps fuel, oil, and other contaminants out of the soil and water, which is why responsible recycling matters even when you are clearing out an old vehicle.
