RunBidSell’s Top Tips for Selling Your Car

  • To prevent unexpected issues, cancel your vehicle’s registration and insurance immediately after selling it. Inform the DMV to update their records and release you from ownership. Then, contact your insurance provider to stop any ongoing payments. Keep written confirmation from both.
  • When deciding how to sell your vehicle, weigh the convenience of a company like RunBidSell against the potential for a higher return from public sales. Companies like RunBidSell offer a hassle free process with instant offers. Selling to the public might lead to a better financial outcome but requires more effort.
  • If your car has been in an accident, be ready for lower offers. The damage affects the vehicle’s market value, so set a price reflecting its condition. Managing expectations with a realistic price can make the selling process smoother.

Wilmington Insights

We often buy all kinds of cars in Wilmington, especially older models that people no longer need. Small cars like Honda Civics and Ford Focuses are common because they’re cheap to run and easy to fix. Pickup trucks, especially older Dodge Ram and Ford F-150s, are also popular, especially from 2008 to 2014. Many of these trucks come in because their owners no longer need a work vehicle or because of high mileage. We see a lot of vehicles with over 150,000 miles on them. Sometimes, cars have been involved in minor crashes or have body damage, and owners decide it’s easier to sell them for parts. SUVs, such as Jeep Cherokees and Chevrolet Equinox, are also common, often from the mid-2000s. These vehicles tend to get more miles and sometimes have engine or transmission issues, especially if they’re over 15 years old. We’re noticing a slight increase in the number of junk cars brought in, mostly older models with severe frame damage or engines that no longer run. Meanwhile, well maintained late model sedans like Toyota Camrys and Honda Accords from 2010 to 2015 are still in demand when they’re in good shape. It’s a mix of vehicles, but most come from owners looking to clear space or get quick cash.
