✔ RunBidSell’s Top Tips for Selling Your Car
- Once your car is sold, it’s important to promptly cancel both its registration and insurance. Contact the DMV to update their records and remove your name from the vehicle’s registration. This step helps you avoid any future fines or legal problems. Then, reach out to your insurance provider to cancel the policy and stop any additional charges. Obtain written confirmation of both cancellations and keep these documents safe. This will protect you from any unexpected issues related to the vehicle.
- If you prefer a quick and easy sale, auto salvage yards are a good option. They offer fair prices for junk cars and handle all aspects of the transaction, including paperwork and towing. This can save you time and simplify the selling process.
- Even with a failed emissions test, you can still find a buyer for your car. Junkyards and licensed dealers often handle cars with emissions issues. Be upfront about the failed test results when you seek an offer. This helps in securing a fair price and simplifies the sale.

Memphis Insights
In Memphis, the vehicles we see most often are older trucks and sedans. Pickup trucks like the Dodge Ram 1500 and Toyota Tacoma are highly requested, especially models from 2008 to 2014. Many of these trucks have high miles, often over 150,000, and common problems include rusted frames and worn out suspensions. Sedans remain popular, especially Honda Civics and Ford Focus from about 2010 to 2015. These cars usually have around 120,000 to 200,000 miles and often face issues like failing transmissions or engine oil leaks. We also buy a fair number of compact cars, like Chevrolet Aveos and Nissan Sentras, mostly from the early 2010s, which tend to have electrical problems or brake wear due to age. Interestingly, older SUVs like the Ford Explorer from 2005 to 2010 are still in demand, but they often suffer from transmission troubles or rust in the undercarriage. Recently, we’ve noticed a decline in junk vehicles such as late-2000s Hyundais and Kias, which tend to have significant frame or engine issues by that age. Trends show that smaller vehicles like compact trucks and sedans are still sought after for parts or repair projects, while larger SUVs and trucks are more common for immediate resale or scrap due to wear. Many owners are passing along vehicles with simple problems that make fixing them too costly compared to their value.
