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

  • Give a complete description of your car’s condition. If there are serious issues, such as engine problems or major body damage, let us know. Report any missing or damaged parts. This ensures you receive a great offer and makes the process smoother.
  • For a quick and easy sale, consider using a company like RunBidSell. They offer immediate offers and handle the pickup and payment. If you have the time to handle the sale process yourself and seek a higher price, selling to the public might be a good option.
  • When selling a non-running or damaged car, understand that its value may be lower. The price should reflect the vehicle’s condition. Repair needs and damage affect the offer you’ll receive. Adjusting your price to match the car’s state helps in finding a buyer.

Local Insights

Across Meridian, we see a wide variety of vehicles coming in, but certain types seem to be more common than others. Pickup trucks like the Ford F-250 and Chevy Silverado are frequently purchased, often between 10 to 15 years old, with high mileage. Many of these trucks have issues with the suspension and rust, especially on the frame and undercarriage. Sedans such as the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry are also popular, usually around 8 to 12 years old. These vehicles often have worn out brakes, engines with high miles, or old timing belts. Compact cars like the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte are trending downward; people are moving away from them, possibly due to more recent safety or reliability concerns. We also see a fair number of older SUVs like the Ford Escape and Jeep Cherokee, often 12 years or older, with common problems including air conditioning failure and leaking seals. The most sought after vehicles tend to be newer models in decent shape, but the market for junk or damaged vehicles is steady. Interestingly, older vehicles with extensive rust or engine trouble tend to be less desirable, and their value drops accordingly. The market stays quite stable, with small fluctuations in value over recent months, confirming that now might be a good time for owners to sell or scrap their older cars.
