Milwaukee FAQs About Cash for Junk Cars

Q: Do you buy vehicles in the Bay View area?
A: Yes, we cover the Bay View area and the rest of Milwaukee, including Downtown Milwaukee and the Third Ward.

Q: What paperwork do I need to sell my car for cash in Milwaukee Wisconsin?
A: In Milwaukee Wisconsin, you need to provide the car title with your name on it to sell your vehicle for cash to us. If the car is a junk vehicle and missing a title, you may be able to use a notarized bill of sale along with proof of ownership like your registration. Milwaukee requires the seller to sign over the title and submit a Notice of Transfer within 10 days to the Wisconsin DMV, which we can help you with during the transaction.

Q: How does Milwaukee’s winter weather affect picking up my junk car for cash?
A: Milwaukee’s harsh winters with frequent snow and ice can make street parking tricky and sometimes restrict vehicle access due to city snow removal regulations. Since many Milwaukee neighborhoods require moving vehicles for plowing, we recommend scheduling your car pickup in advance so we can avoid towing delays or city fines. We also have specialized equipment to handle snowy or icy conditions common in Milwaukee, ensuring prompt local removal even in tough weather.

Q: Does RunBidSell purchase junk vehicles in other locations?
A: We buy junk cars throughout Wisconsin. Locations near Milwaukee include Wauwatosa, West Allis and Greenfield.

Milwaukee Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Milwaukee, pickup trucks and SUVs continue to be the most common vehicles we buy. Older Ford F-150s from around 2008-2012 often come in, but many have frame rust or transmission issues that make repairs costly. The Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V are also popular, especially models from the early 2010s, but high mileage and worn out suspensions reduce their value. Compact cars like the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte are frequently sold, typically between 2013 and 2016 models. These cars often face problems like blown head gaskets or CV axle damage, especially if they’ve been driven hard or neglected. Interestingly, we’ve seen a slight increase in demand for electric vehicles, mostly Nissan Leafs and older Chevrolet Bolts, though many come in with battery degradation or crash damage. On the other hand, we notice fewer late model luxury cars like Lexus RX or BMW X3, as repairs can be expensive and they often have extensive interior wear or mechanical issues by the time they’re sold. Vehicles from about 10-15 years old with around 150,000 miles are quite common, and many have paint fading or worn out brakes.
