RunBidSell’s Top Tips for Selling Your Car

  • After completing the sale of your vehicle, promptly cancel its registration and insurance. Notify the DMV to update their records and remove your name. Then, contact your insurance provider to cancel the policy and halt any further payments. Store written confirmation of both actions.
  • When choosing a buyer for your junk car, think about the convenience of the transaction. Auto salvage yards offer competitive prices and manage all aspects of the sale, including paperwork and towing, which can simplify the process.
  • Exterior damage on a junk car doesn’t matter to a junkyard. They’re interested in the value of the vehicle’s parts and metal. Skip repairs and offer the car as is. You’ll receive cash without the hassle of fixing it.

Amherst Insights

In Amherst, we see a lot of different types of vehicles come through our hands. Older trucks like Ford F-150s from the early 2010s and Chevrolet Silverado models are often bought, especially those with high mileage or minor engine problems. People tend to sell these because of rust or worn out parts. Compact cars like Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas from around 2015 to 2018 are also common. Many of these vehicles have high miles, often over 150,000, and sometimes have issues from previous accidents or bad brakes. Small SUVs, such as Honda CR-Vs and Ford Escape models from 2012 to 2016, are gaining popularity, especially ones that have engine leaks or suspension problems. On the flip side, newer sedans like Hyundai Elantras from 2019 or 2020 don’t pop up as often. We often find cars with damage from rear-end crashes or frame issues. Older minivans like Dodge Grand Caravans from 2008 to 2012 are still bought, especially when they have transmission troubles or last years’ rust. We notice that vehicles heavily damaged in accidents, with frame or major body issues, are less frequently traded in now, but sometimes they still come in for salvage. As the market shifts, we notice that newer, low-mileage vehicles stay in higher demand, while older, high mileage cars are more often sold for parts or scrap.
