RunBidSell’s Top Tips for Selling Your Junk Car for Cash in Richmond

  • When your vehicle is sold, cancel its registration and insurance without delay. Notify the DMV to update their records and release you from ownership. Then, contact your insurance provider to stop additional payments. Store confirmation from both sources.
  • If you want to avoid the hassle of negotiating with private buyers, consider selling your junk car to an auto salvage yard. They provide great offers based on your car’s value and manage the entire transaction, including handling the paperwork and towing.
  • When pricing a non-running car, keep in mind that its value is significantly affected by its inability to operate. Buyers will be less willing to pay a high price since they will need to handle repairs or towing. Set a realistic price based on the vehicle’s condition to facilitate a quicker sale.

Local Insights

In Richmond, we find that certain types of vehicles are more common when people sell us their cars and trucks. Older models tend to be more popular, especially those from the early 2000s and sometimes late 90s. Many of these vehicles have high mileage or have been used heavily, making them less reliable for long trips. Common makes like Ford F-150 pickups, Honda Civics, and Toyota Camrys are often available. We also see a lot of smaller cars that get used as daily drivers. Some vehicles have reported accident damage or are missing parts, which lowers their value but still makes them useful for parts or scrap metal. In recent years, older SUVs like Jeep Cherokees or Ford Explorers have become more sought after because they are sturdy and easy to repair. On the other hand, newer vehicles, those less than five years old, don’t show up as often, especially if they still run well. People tend to sell us their vehicles when they break down or become too costly to fix, especially if they’re around 10-15 years old.
