Not sure what it's worth?
Here's what actually moves the price on an old or damaged vehicle.
How it works
Three steps, and the middle one happens on the phone.
Tell us about it
Call or use the form: year, make, model, what shape it's in and where it's parked.
Get a cash price
We ask a couple of questions and give you a number. Take it or leave it, no pressure either way.
We tow, you get paid
Our driver loads it, pays you and signs the ICBC Transfer/Tax Form with you. You keep the plates.
Have the registration and photo ID ready for every owner listed on it. Not sure what else you need? Our BC paperwork guide covers it, including lost registrations and cars with a loan.
What sets the price
No two old cars are worth the same. These are the things we ask about.
- Size and weightA heavy truck or van carries more metal than a compact car.
- Whether it runsA car that starts and drives is worth more, even with other problems.
- What's missingNo engine, transmission, wheels or catalytic converter lowers the number.
- Make, model and yearSome cars are worth more for parts because so many are still on the road.
- DamageWhere it was hit and how badly, and whether it was in a fire or flood.
- Scrap metal marketsMetal prices move week to week, so a price is good for a short time.
If your car runs well and would sell for more privately, we'll tell you. More in what's my scrap car worth?
The car that's been sitting for years
Every neighbourhood has one: the car in the back of the driveway with moss on the roof, the truck behind the barn, the one a tenant left behind. We pick those up all the time, flat tires and seized brakes included.
If the owner on the registration has passed away, the person handling the estate can usually sign the transfer with the right documents. An Autoplan broker can tell you exactly what's needed. If you're not sure who owns it at all, call us first and we'll talk it through.
See scrap car removal for how pickup works on long-parked vehicles.

Common questions
How much will you pay for my car?
It depends on the vehicle's size, whether it runs, what's missing, the make and model, any damage and where scrap metal prices sit that week. Call or send the form and you'll get an actual number, usually on the first call.
Do you buy cars anywhere in Canada?
No. Despite the name, we only buy vehicles in BC's Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, from Vancouver and the North Shore out to Abbotsford, Mission and Chilliwack.
What paperwork do I need?
The vehicle registration signed by every registered owner, plus photo ID. After you're paid, you sign ICBC's Transfer/Tax Form, which our driver brings. If the registration is lost, any Autoplan broker can give you a copy.
Can you take a car without keys?
Yes. No keys is fine, as long as you can show the car is yours. Let us know when you call so the driver comes ready to load it.
What do I do with my plates and insurance?
Keep the plates. They belong to ICBC, so you can move them to your next vehicle or hand them in at an Autoplan broker. Cancel or change your insurance once the car is gone.
Can I sell a car that still has a loan on it?
Often, yes. The loan has to be paid off as part of the sale so the lien comes off. Tell us up front and we'll explain how it works.
Do you charge for towing?
No. Towing is free anywhere in our area, and the price we agree on is what you get paid.
Ready to see it gone?
Call with the year, make, model and where it's parked. Most calls take a few minutes, and you'll hang up with a number.
