If it has four wheels, we'll buy it in Hamilton

We're not fussy. Running or dead, spotless or wrecked — we make a real cash offer on almost anything with a title, and plenty of vehicles without one.

Non-running & won't start

Dead battery, blown engine, seized transmission — if it won't move, our tow truck will.

Accident & collision damage

Front-end hits, rollovers, flood or hail damage — write-offs are our bread and butter.

Salvage & rebuilt titles

Branded after an insurance write-off? No problem — we buy branded vehicles every week.

Old, rusty & high-mileage

200,000 km and counting, surface rust, that clunker on the driveway — still worth cash.

No ownership? Ask us

Lost the green ownership? We can often work with alternate proof — just tell us your situation.

Trucks, vans & SUVs

Pickups, cargo vans, minivans and SUVs in any condition, right across the region.

Three steps · one day

How selling your car in Hamilton works

No listings, no tire-kickers, no waiting on strangers. From your first call to cash in your pocket is usually a single day.

1

Tell us about your car

Call or fill out the form with your year, make, model and condition. Two minutes is all it takes.

2

Get a firm cash offer

We price it against real market and scrap values and give you a number that holds — no drop at the door.

3

We pick up & pay you

Accept the offer and we come to you — Mountain, Stoney Creek, Ancaster, anywhere — tow it free and pay cash on the spot.

Where we pick up

From the Mountain to the harbour

We pick up cars in every corner of Hamilton. Whether your car is sitting in a driveway in Ancaster, an apartment lot in the lower city, or a mechanic's yard in Stoney Creek, our tow truck comes to you at no charge.

We handle pickups up and down the escarpment and close to the QEW, the 403, and the Red Hill Valley and Lincoln Alexander parkways — so location, stairs or a tight lot are never a reason we can't take the car off your hands.

Selling a car in Ontario

The paperwork, made simple

Selling a used or scrap car in Ontario comes with a few steps most people aren't sure about. Here's exactly what applies — and what we take care of for you.

Your licence plates

In Ontario, your plates belong to you — not the car. Take them off before we tow, then move them to another vehicle or return them at a ServiceOntario centre. You may be owed a refund on any unused plate validation.

Proof of ownership

You'll normally need your vehicle permit (the green ownership) or a bill of sale. Lost it? You can order a replacement at ServiceOntario, and in many cases we can still work with alternate proof — just tell us when you call.

Do you need a UVIP?

A Used Vehicle Information Package is required when you sell privately — but when your car goes to a licensed recycler for scrap, it generally isn't needed. We'll tell you exactly what applies to your sale.

Salvage, rebuilt & irreparable

If your car was branded Salvage, Rebuilt or Irreparable after a write-off, that's fine. These Ontario brands describe the car's history — they don't stop you selling it to us for cash.

Cancel your insurance

Once the car is gone, contact your insurer to cancel or adjust the policy — no sense paying to insure a car you no longer own. Keep our bill of sale as your record.

Before we arrive

Clear out the glovebox, console and trunk, take your plates, and have your ownership or ID handy. That's it — we handle the towing and the rest.

What your car is worth

Steel-town value, honest numbers

Hamilton has been a steel town for over a century, and scrap steel prices here move with the wider metals market — one of the biggest factors in what your car is worth.

A complete, drivable car is worth more than a stripped shell, but even a rusted-out non-runner has real cash value. Tell us the details and we'll give you a firm number — no lowballing, no surprises at pickup.

Most Hamilton vehicles: from a few hundred dollars up into the low thousands.

Hamilton cash-for-cars questions

Yes — from the top of the Mountain to the North End waterfront, plus Stoney Creek, Dundas, Ancaster, Waterdown, Flamborough and nearby towns like Burlington and Grimsby. Towing is always free, whatever part of the city you're in.

Often the same day, and usually within 24 hours across Hamilton. When you reach out, we'll book a pickup time that suits you.

Absolutely. Non-runners, accident-damaged cars, and salvage or rebuilt vehicles are what we handle most. Any make, any model, any condition.

You can order a replacement vehicle permit at ServiceOntario, and in many cases we can still work with alternate proof of ownership. Tell us your situation and we'll let you know exactly what's needed.

Your plates stay with you — in Ontario they belong to the owner, not the car. Take them off before pickup, then transfer them to another vehicle or return them at ServiceOntario, where you may get a refund on unused validation.

You're paid on the spot, at pickup, before we tow the car away — cash or e-transfer, whichever you prefer. The amount we quote is the amount you get.

Just three things: clear out any personal belongings, remove your plates, and have your ownership or ID ready. We take care of the towing and the paperwork.
