Raleigh FAQs About Cash for Junk Cars

Q: Is your service available in the North Hills area?
A: We serve the North Hills area and the rest of Raleigh, including Downtown Raleigh and Brier Creek.

Q: Do I need to provide a Raleigh North Carolina title or registration when selling my junk car for cash?
A: Yes, in Raleigh North Carolina, we require the vehicle title or current registration to complete the sale legally. This is because Wake County enforces strict regulations around vehicle ownership transfers to prevent fraud. If you don’t have the title, we can guide you on how to request a duplicate from the North Carolina DMV. Without proper documentation, we cannot finalize the transaction.

Q: How quickly can you pick up my car in Raleigh’s downtown or Oakwood neighborhoods?
A: We understand that Raleigh’s downtown and historic Oakwood neighborhoods can have limited street parking and narrow roads. We usually schedule same-day or next-day pickups but may need to coordinate specific times due to local traffic and parking restrictions enforced by the city. We work closely with Raleigh’s transport regulations to ensure a smooth, hassle-free removal of your vehicle from these areas.

Q: Does RunBidSell buy junk cars in other locations?
A: We buy junk cars throughout North Carolina. Locations near Raleigh include Garner, Cary and Morrisville.

Raleigh Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Raleigh, we see a mix of vehicle types coming through our doors, and certain models tend to stand out more than others. Pickup trucks like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet Colorado are quite popular, especially ones that are around 10 to 15 years old. Many have high miles and sometimes have issues with the suspension or rust, but their sturdy build keeps them in demand. Sedans, particularly older Honda Civics and Toyota Corollas, are also common. These cars often have high mileage, over 150,000 miles, and can develop problems like transmission slips or engine oil leaks. We’ve noticed that SUVs such as the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Honda CR-V are increasingly sought after, especially models from the early 2000s, though they may have frame rust or engine wear. Recently, the trend shows a dip in older luxury vehicles like Lexus RX models, which often face costly repairs, making them less attractive to buyers. Vehicles involved in minor accidents or with cosmetic damage are frequently purchased for parts or quick resale. It seems that the local market favors reliable, affordable vehicles rather than high-end or very new models, which sit longer on the market. As a general trend, older pickup trucks and economy sedans are still the most common and in demand vehicles we see in Raleigh.
