Merrillville Insights

We often buy all kinds of vehicles in Merrillville, but some types are more common than others. Smaller cars like Honda Civics and Ford Focuses are popular, especially models made in the mid-2010s. These cars are light and often get good gas mileage, so many people own them. Trucks, especially older Ford F-150s and Chevrolet Silverados, are also frequently bought. Many of these trucks are around 10 to 15 years old and sometimes have issues like rust, blown engines, or damaged frames from crashes. We notice a trend: as fuel prices go up, smaller cars are staying in demand, but people aren’t selling as many junk trucks unless they have serious damage. We also see a fair number of SUVs, like Jeep Cherokees and Toyota RAV4s, from the late 2000s to early 2010s. These vehicles often have high mileage or repairs needed for suspension or leaks. Vehicles that are more than 15 years old tend to come in with engine problems or body rust, especially if they’ve been used in harsh weather. Recently, we’re getting more broken down older models that have been involved in accidents, making them less desirable for resale but still useful for parts or scrap.

What Merrillville Customers Are Saying:

I needed to sell my SUV that was barely running. They gave me an offer right away. I chose the time for them to come. They paid me and took the SUV. – Judy W.


I had to part with my junky car in Merrillville. I filled out the form, and the offer came back quickly. Unfortunately, it was not what I wanted. I accepted because I felt stuck. The pickup time was not great and added to my frustration. Sure, but I really didn’t care about that. When they finally took it, I felt irritated. – Patrick P.
