Calgary Auto Salvage - We Buy Junk Cars

No. Towing is free anywhere we pick up in Calgary and the nearby towns, and nothing comes off your price to pay for it. The driver hands you the cash once your car is on the truck.

Most junk cars bring between $200 and $10,000. We work the number out from the vehicle’s condition, weight, completeness (missing parts or other components) and its make and model, and you hear the quote on the phone as soon as we have those details.

On the spot, in cash. Our driver pays the full amount we quoted when he picks up your vehicle, so the money is in your hand before the car leaves your property.

We strongly recommend that the owner of the vehicle is present upon pick up for the signing of your bill of sale.

None. The quote you accept is what you are paid in full, and there is no charge for the pickup or the tow.

Yes, we buy any vehicle in nearly any condition. The price of your vehicle may be reduced if it doesn’t run or is missing any parts. In extreme circumstances where there is extensive water or fire damage, your vehicle may be refused as the raw materials could no longer be usable. Contact us to speak about your questions or concerns regarding your vehicle’s condition.

Take out your belongings and remove your licence plate, because in Alberta the plate stays with you, not the car. Have your photo ID and ownership document ready too, and the bill of sale takes a few minutes once we arrive.

Sell it to an auto salvage company that collects it for free. Call Calgary Auto Salvage at 403-614-2357, 7am to 9pm any day, and we tow it away, pay you cash on the spot and send it for recycling.

We accept most vehicles for vehicle salvage, including cars, trucks, vans, SUVs, and older or damaged vehicles. If you’re unsure whether your vehicle qualifies for auto salvage, call us and we’ll walk through the condition, missing parts (if any), and location.

We provide car salvage Calgary service across the city and also serve many surrounding areas (depending on scheduling and distance). If you’re outside Calgary and searching for “auto salvage near me”, call us, and we’ll confirm if we can pick up from your location.

Photo ID and proof that the car is yours, usually the bill of sale from when you bought it. In Alberta an original registration certificate does not count as proof of ownership, so a lost one will not hold up the sale (alberta.ca).

We write the bill of sale with you at pickup. Alberta requires it to show the full name and address of the buyer and the seller, the VIN, the make, model, style, colour and year, the price, and signatures from both sides (alberta.ca). Afterwards, take your plate to any registry agent to cancel the registration. Alberta deducts a $10 plus GST cancellation fee from any refund, and the cheque comes by mail in about 4 to 6 weeks (alberta.ca). Missing something? Call us first and we will tell you what works for your situation.

Often, yes. For auto salvage and vehicle salvage pickups in Calgary, we regularly handle vehicles in driveways, alleys, and tighter access areas. Let us know the pickup conditions in advance so we can send the right equipment for your salvage auto removal.
