Strathmore Junk Car Removal - Cash Paid, Towed the Same Week

A commuter car that gave up on the Trans-Canada, a rolled quad-cab from a Wheatland County gravel road, or an SUV the body shop says is not worth repairing: Calgary Auto Salvage pays $200 to $10,000 for it in Strathmore and picks it up at no charge. Straight from our yard, straight to your driveway.

How It Works

One call to 403-614-2357 gets you a price. Tell us what it is, what is wrong and where it is parked. Accept, and we book a window. From 4035 14th Street SE the driver heads east on Highway 1, past Chestermere and Langdon, and is in Strathmore in about 45 minutes. Cash and a bill of sale change hands at the vehicle, the plate comes off and stays with you, and the driver loads up.

A highway town with highway mileage

Strathmore has passed 14,000 people, and a big share of them drive to Calgary and back every day. Those cars wear out early. When the repair estimate outgrows the car, we pay for what is left: drivetrain, panels, converter, wheels.

Quick turnaround off Highway 1

Because the Trans-Canada is a direct shot from our yard, Strathmore is one of the easier towns to fit into a day. Morning calls are often collected by evening, and we run until 9pm every day including weekends.

Gold Key Registry for the paperwork

Take the bill of sale from our driver to Gold Key Registry at 233 3rd Avenue in Strathmore to cancel the registration. Once it is cancelled, call your insurer and stop the policy the same day.

Any condition, any yard

Rear-ended at the Highway 817 lights, hail-pocked from a summer storm, flooded in a low spot, or just plain done at 300,000 km. Front driveway, back alley, farm quarter or an industrial bay by the tracks, we load it.

$200 - $10,000

SAME DAY PICK-UP OF YOUR JUNK VEHICLE

Junk cars are parked in the yard in Red Deer.

Why Strathmore vehicles are worth more than scrap weight

Strathmore is the biggest town on the Trans-Canada between Calgary and Medicine Hat and the seat of Wheatland County, which means a mix of vehicles you do not see in a purely suburban place. Commuter sedans and crossovers make up most of what we buy here, but there is a steady stream of farm half-tons, stock-trailer haulers and the odd one-ton dually that has hauled its last load to the auction mart. Both kinds are priced on parts and metal, not just tonnage.

The Strathmore Stampede fills the town every August long weekend, and it is a reminder that this is still horse-and-trailer country. Trucks here get worked. A diesel three-quarter-ton with a bad injector pump is a poor thing to fix but a good thing to sell to us, because the cab, box, axles and interior are all resellable at the yard.

We cover every part of town, from the older streets near the grain elevators to the newer subdivisions along Westmount Drive and the acreages out toward Gleichen and Carseland. Vehicles in Wheatland County outside the town limits are on the same free-tow terms. If you have more than one to move, tell us and we will send a deck truck that can take them all in one visit.

About Us

Calgary Auto Salvage is a licensed salvage yard on the southeast edge of inner Calgary. We buy vehicles outright and process them ourselves: parts inventory, fluid recovery, catalytic converter removal, then crushing and steel recycling. No broker, no auction, no reselling your Strathmore car to another yard for a cut. That direct model is why our offers start at $200 rather than a token amount, and why the good ones reach $10,000 for late-model vehicles with a lot of reusable parts.

Insurance write-offs

If your insurer has paid out and you have kept the salvage, we buy it. A written-off Strathmore SUV with airbags deployed but a sound engine has plenty of value. Have the settlement letter or ownership document handy when you call.

Lapsed registration is fine

Alberta lets you sell a vehicle without active registration as long as you can prove you own it. We take a lot of cars that have sat in Strathmore garages through three or four expired tags. We just need your ID and the ownership paper.

Fleet and shop clearances

Strathmore shops and small fleets sometimes need a bay or a corner of the lot cleared of dead units. We will price the batch, bring the right truck and write individual bills of sale for your books.

FAQ Section

Can you pick up in Strathmore the same day I call?

Often, yes. Strathmore is a 45-minute run east on Highway 1, and the truck is on that road regularly for Chestermere and Langdon pickups. If you call in the morning there is a good chance it is gone by dinner. We book pickups right up to 9pm, seven days a week.

My car was hit at the Highway 1 and 817 intersection. Do you buy collision damage?

We do. Collision cars are a large share of what we buy in Strathmore. Frame damage does not matter to us because the vehicle is being parted out and recycled. What does matter is the engine, transmission and whatever panels survived, so tell us which end was hit.

Where is the closest place to cancel my registration?

Gold Key Registry at 233 3rd Avenue is the Alberta registry agent in Strathmore. Bring the bill of sale our driver leaves with you and your registration document. Cancellation takes a few minutes, and you can then cancel insurance. The plate is yours to keep or return.

I live on a farm outside Strathmore. Is that still free towing?

Yes. Wheatland County acreages and farms around Strathmore, Carseland, Rockyford and Gleichen fall inside our free pickup area. Tell us the land location or range road so the driver can plan the route, and let us know if the vehicle is in a field rather than on a hard surface.

What is a 15-year-old Strathmore commuter sedan actually worth?

It depends on what still works. A Corolla or Civic that runs but needs $3,000 in suspension and brake work usually lands well above scrap, because the engine and transmission are in demand. A non-running one with a blown motor is closer to our $200 floor. Give us the details and we will tell you where it falls.

Do you take vehicles that were in the 2020 hailstorm?

We buy hail-damaged vehicles from Strathmore and the surrounding county regularly. Dented panels and broken glass reduce the resale value of the car but do very little to the parts value we recover, so hail cars are often worth more than their owners expect.
