Rio Nido sits right in the heart of Sonoma County, and we've spent years buying cars from neighborhoods all across it. Wherever you are — a busy street near downtown or a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of town — we know the area and we come to you.
Plenty of people assume an old clunker is worth next to nothing — dead engine, dented panels, or parked so long the tires have gone flat. Here's the truth: we'll take it in whatever shape it's in, and what we offer tends to surprise people in the best way. Call 800-219-4551 and we'll tell you what your car is really worth.
Anyone can post an ad promising to buy your car. Plenty will dangle a tempting offer, then vanish once they've seen it — or quietly shave the price the moment they're standing in your driveway. That's not how we work.
We service every part of Rio Nido, including:
From your first phone call to cash in your pocket, it's just three steps — no detours, no surprise charges.
Give us the year, make, model, and rough condition, and we'll have a real offer for you in about two minutes.
Say yes and pick a time that works for you — often same-day, or within 24 to 48 hours. We come out to wherever the car sits in Rio Nido: your place, your job, anywhere. You stay put.
Our driver shows up with the paperwork, puts payment in your hands, and then tows the car away. Start to finish in well under half an hour.

Selling a car in California takes a few forms, and our driver brings what's needed and walks you through it. The car does need a clear title in your name — no active loans or liens.
Every car we buy could be potentially resold at auction, or used for parts, or recycled at a licensed California yard. Nothing gets dumped or left behind.
Every car we look at in Rio Nido falls into one of a few buckets below — and every one of them gets a real cash offer.
Starts, drives, and still has life left in it. These usually get our strongest offers since less work is needed before resale.
Rusted through, stripped, or simply too far gone to drive again. We still buy these and pay based on weight and scrap value.
Carries a salvage title or was written off by insurance after an accident. We buy these with or without paperwork in hand.
Blown engine, seized motor, slipping gears, or stuck in park — mechanical failures like these don't change whether we'll buy it, just the number.
Lost it or never had it? Missing paperwork slows things down a little, but it rarely stops a sale. Note: we're not able to buy cars with an active loan still on them.
No surprise deductions when our driver shows up. The number we give you over the phone or online is the number you get paid.
There's no towing fee folded into the offer and no fee taken out after. Pickup and tow are always free in Rio Nido.
Running, wrecked, missing parts, or sitting on a salvage title — we evaluate every car in Rio Nido on its own, not by a blanket rule.
You get paid on the spot at pickup, before the car ever leaves your driveway.
Selling a car in Rio Nido means signing the title over the right way. Title rules are set at the state level, so here's exactly what California asks of you — and remember, when you sell to us, our driver brings the paperwork and walks you through every step at pickup.
In California, sign the front of the title on line 1A as the registered owner; a second registered owner signs on line 1B. Then complete the odometer and sale-price lines.
No — notarization is not required.
Keep your plates — they stay with you and can transfer to your next car.
No problem — file an Application for Duplicate Title (REG 227) with the CA DMV.
No title in hand? We regularly buy cars without titles in California — have your ID and registration handy.
Good to know: California requires a smog certification on most sales, though many older and non-running cars are exempt.

Rio Nido, whose name means "river nest" in Spanish, is a small unincorporated resort community nestled on the Russian River in Sonoma County, situated just 1.3 miles east of Guerneville. According to one account, the name references an eagle's nest once spotted in a tree on the riverbanks. The community's unofficial slogans, "Memories That Linger" and "The Moon Is Always Out In Rio Nido," capture the character of this intimate destination.
The property was originally purchased in 1908 as a single plot by the Eagle Lodge in San Francisco and then subdivided into parcels for its members. A post office opened that same year under the name Eaglenest, changing to Rionido in 1910 and finally to Rio Nido in 1947. During World War II, Rio Nido flourished as a recreation destination for sailors and military personnel, with the Big Band era in full swing bringing famous orchestras to its dance hall. The community's population has grown from 296 residents in 2000 to 522 by 2010, typical of resort communities that swell during summer months.
Today, Rio Nido consists of numerous summer homes and cabins scattered throughout a redwood canyon, along with a few small businesses including a bar and restaurant, public pool, and resort hotel. The region experiences warm, dry summers with cool nights and occasional morning fog, while winters are cool and wet. Snow is exceptionally rare, having occurred only once in 1989 and once in 2004. Located approximately five miles north of the renowned Bohemian Grove, Rio Nido continues to serve as a peaceful retreat along California's Russian River.
