Crash damage, a blown engine, a transmission that quit, flood or fire. If fixing it doesn't make sense, we'll quote it as it is and tow it away free.
Rather talk it through? Call (236) 246-9907, every day 8am to 8pm.
Two short steps. We'll call you back with your quote.
If you're making a claim, start with ICBC. When ICBC writes a car off, it usually takes the vehicle as part of the settlement, so there's nothing left for you to sell.
Where you still own the damaged car, for example after a crash you didn't claim, or damage that isn't worth repairing, we'll quote it as it sits. Missing bumpers, airbags that went off and bent frames are all fine.
Flood-damaged cars are usually branded non-repairable in BC, which means parts and scrap only. We buy those, and fire-damaged cars too, as long as they can be loaded safely.
Mechanical failures are the most common reason people call us.
Usually, yes. Even a badly damaged car is mostly steel, and some of its parts are still useful. Weight, how complete it is, and the steel market that week set most of the number.
What lowers it: missing major parts like the engine, transmission or catalytic converter, and cars that are hard to reach. What helps: an accurate description and a couple of photos, so we can quote it properly the first time.
If you're making a claim, call ICBC first. If they declare it a total loss, they usually keep the car. If you're not claiming, or you already own the damaged car outright, send us the details for a quote.
Yes, as long as you own it and it can be loaded safely. Tell us what burned so we can quote it properly.
It affects the quote, but we still buy it, and towing it is no problem.
Not for us. We buy the car as it is.
