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 Truckee, including:

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 Truckee 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 Truckee.
Running, wrecked, missing parts, or sitting on a salvage title — we evaluate every car in Truckee 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 Truckee 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.

Truckee is an incorporated town in Nevada County, California, with a population of 16,729 as of the 2020 census. The town's origins trace back to 1863, when it was established as Gray's Station along a trans-Sierra wagon road. It became known as Coburn's Station by 1866 after a blacksmith named Samuel S. Coburn arrived almost from the beginning. The Central Pacific Railroad selected the name Truckee for its station by August 1867, naming it after a Paiute chief whose assumed name was Tru-ki-zo. Chief Truckee was the father of Chief Winnemucca and grandfather of Sarah Winnemucca, and he later served as a guide for explorer John C. Frémont.
Truckee's most famous historical event involves the Donner Party, a group of settlers who became snowbound in 1846 near what is now Donner Lake. Of the original 87 settlers, forty-eight survived an ordeal marked by starvation and hardship. The town grew as a railroad hub, with the Transcontinental Railroad passing through downtown and Amtrak passenger lines still stopping there today. By the 1870s, Chinese immigrants made up roughly a quarter of Truckee's population, though they faced severe discrimination. An 1875 fire destroyed many Chinese buildings, and anti-Chinese sentiment intensified through organizations like the Caucasian League, culminating in the Trout Creek Outrage in 1876 and the burning of Truckee's entire Chinese quarter in 1878.
