About Cash For Junk Cars YEG

We're a local Edmonton business that buys junk, scrap and unwanted vehicles straight from their owners.

Our whole operation is built on one idea: when you sell a car you're finished with, you should know the price before the truck shows up, and that price should still be the same when it leaves.

The reason behind the work

Why We Do This

Ask anyone in Edmonton who's sold a junk car and you'll hear the same complaints. The phone quote that shrank in the driveway. The “free” tow that came out of the price. The buyer who never showed up, or showed up three hours late. We got into this business because we'd seen those stories too many times and knew it didn't have to work that way.

So we kept the model simple. We look at the actual vehicle, explain how we got the number, and stand behind it. We come when we say we will. We pay before we load. And we handle the paperwork properly, because a clean sale protects you long after the car is gone.

How We Work

Straight numbers

Every quote is based on the vehicle's weight, its parts, current metal prices and its condition. If the car matches what you told us, the quote holds. If something's different, we show you what and why, and you can say no at no cost.

No hidden costs

Towing, paperwork and recycling are included. There are no hook-up, fuel, distance or disposal fees.

Done by the rules

We check ownership and photo ID on every vehicle, record each transaction as Alberta's scrap metal rules require, pay by traceable e-transfer, and give you a proper Alberta bill of sale.

Honest advice

If your car would sell for noticeably more privately, or a small repair would keep it on the road, we'll tell you, even if it means we don't buy it.

Responsible recycling

Vehicles we can't resell are depolluted and recycled through licensed facilities. Fluids, batteries and tires go where they belong, and the metal is reused.

People behind the pickup

Our Team

We're a small crew, and that's on purpose. The person who answers your call talks directly with the drivers who plan the pickups, so details don't get lost. Our drivers are experienced tow operators who know Edmonton: the tight back lanes in the older neighbourhoods, the low parkades downtown, the drifting acreage roads outside the Henday. They'll walk you through the paperwork, answer your questions and make sure you've been paid before anything goes on the truck.
