Nanton has around 2,200 people and no scrap buyer of its own. Calgary Auto Salvage fills that gap. We pay $200 to $10,000 cash for vehicles that have quit in Nanton and the ranch land of the MD of Willow Creek, and the tow south from Calgary is on us.
Ring 403-614-2357. Describe the vehicle and its condition honestly, and we give you a cash figure on the call. If you agree, we set a pickup day. Our driver runs south from 4035 14th Street SE on Deerfoot Trail and Highway 2, past Okotoks and High River, and reaches Nanton in about an hour, roughly 85 kilometres. You get the money and a bill of sale before the vehicle leaves your property.
Nanton is cattle country. The three-quarter-ton that has fed cows every winter for twenty years still has an engine, axles and a frame we can use. Stock-trailer haulers and old flatbeds are welcome, running or not.
Nanton is known for antique shops along Highway 2, not scrap. If the car parked behind your house is a project you will never finish, we will give you a real number for it rather than letting it rust.
Nanton has its own Alberta registry agent, Nanton Registries at 2207 20th Avenue. Drop in with your bill of sale and registration after the pickup and the registration is cancelled while you wait.
Coulees, gravel range roads west toward the Porcupine Hills, or a shed on the edge of town. Our trucks have winches and long cables, and drivers who are used to loading from grass.
Nanton sits where Highway 2 meets Highway 533, with the Lancaster bomber at the Bomber Command Museum of Canada as its most famous landmark and grain elevators still standing on the edge of town. It is a ranching and farming community first. That shapes what we buy here: work pickups, older SUVs used for hauling kids and hay in equal measure, and the occasional grain truck that has not turned a wheel since the last combine came through.
Distance is the reason many Nanton vehicles sit longer than they should. Getting a non-runner to a Calgary yard means paying a tow, and a tow from here can cost more than the car fetches by weight. We remove that problem by including the haul in our price. What you are quoted is what you receive, whether the vehicle is on 22nd Street in town or on a quarter section off Highway 533.
Nanton stops are usually scheduled with High River and Okotoks pickups on the same southbound run, which keeps the trip efficient and the towing free. Expect a truck within a couple of days of your call, and sometimes next morning if we are already headed that direction. Evening pickups up to 9pm are available if you work days.
Calgary Auto Salvage is an auto salvage and recycling yard in southeast Calgary. We purchase whole vehicles, drain and dismantle them at our own facility, and recycle the steel. We do not resell vehicles and we do not act as a broker. That is why we can pay Nanton owners $200 to $10,000 cash and still absorb the drive down Highway 2: the value we recover from a vehicle stays in-house rather than being split with a middleman.
A truck that has sat behind the barn since 2009 is still a truck. Mice, flat tires and a seized engine reduce the price but do not kill the deal. Tell us how long it has been parked and whether it has been under cover.
In Alberta you can sell a vehicle with expired registration if you have the ownership document. If yours is missing, a registry agent can print a replacement for a small fee. We will tell you what to ask for.
Two or three units at once is common around Nanton, Parkland and Stavely. We bring a deck that fits them all and price each vehicle separately so you know what each one brought.

Was pleased to have my car sold the same day I called. Super convenient and polite staff.

Very accommodating and punctual, would recommend to anyone.
Great experience, I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell their scrap car.

I had a broken down Hummer H3, Calgary Auto Salvage was quick to remove the car and pay me top dollar.

Yes, regularly. Nanton is about an hour south of our yard on Highway 2, and it fits naturally on the same route as High River and Okotoks. We do not treat it as a special trip or charge extra for it.
Our floor is $200, and that applies in Nanton. We would not quote a vehicle we were not prepared to collect. If a vehicle is worth only the minimum, we still come and get it, and you still receive the full $200.
We buy grain trucks, farm pickups, flatbeds and cube vans. We do not buy tractors, combines or implements. If the unit has a road-going chassis, an engine and a cab, call us and we will price it. Steel-heavy vehicles do well by weight alone.
Nanton Registries at 2207 20th Avenue is the local Alberta registry agent. Bring the bill of sale from our driver and your registration certificate. You keep your licence plate; in Alberta plates stay with the owner, so take it off before we load the vehicle.
Yes. Keys are not needed because we winch the vehicle onto the deck. The plate is irrelevant to us because plates belong to the person, not the car. All we need is proof you own it and photo ID. If the ownership document is lost, a registry agent can reprint it.
Yes. We run seven days a week from 7am to 9pm, so an evening slot after chores or a Saturday morning is easy to arrange. Just tell us what time works and whether someone will be there to sign, or whether you would prefer to leave the paperwork and keys with a neighbour.
