Turn that “someday-I’ll-deal-with-it” car into cash—today

From a rusty hatchback in East Van to a dented work van in Burnaby—or even a half-finished project tucked away on the North Shore—Vancouver’s Cash For Cars makes the whole problem vanish in one smooth motion. A quick call (or a few clicks) earns you a firm, inspection-free quote calculated from live metal prices, parts demand, and collector data—so the number you hear is the number you pocket.

While you finish your coffee, a fully insured truck is already on its way. We collect vehicles anywhere in Metro Vancouver—underground parkades, back alleys, farm fields—with zero towing fees and the ICBC transfer paperwork pre-filled and ready for your signature. By the time the tow bar’s hooked up, cash (or an instant e-transfer) is in your hand and your driveway—or budget—is suddenly clear.

We purchase every make and model, from stalled sedans and battered fleet vans to six-figure classics, and we recycle responsibly so nothing useful goes to waste.

Clunker to Cash in 3 Quick Moves

1) Get a Real Offer — Without the Runaround

In Vancouver, a car can go from “I’ll deal with it later” to “I need this gone today” pretty fast—especially when it won’t start, it’s leaking, it’s been sitting too long, or strata is suddenly sending warnings.

With Cash For Cars Vancouver, the first step is simple: call or tap our quick form and tell us the basics—year, make, model, and honest condition.

Whether you’re in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, East Van, Sunset, Marpole, Kerrisdale, Dunbar, Downtown, Yaletown, Coal Harbour, or the West End, we’ll send you a solid, no-pressure quote based on real value—not guesswork.

No haggling. No “we’ll see when we arrive” nonsense. No last-minute “Oh… actually…” price drops.

Just a clean offer you can say yes to (or not) and move on with your day.

2) Book Free Pickup — Even When Vancouver Makes It Complicated

Here’s what most people worry about:
“Will they show up?”
“Will this cost extra?”
“What if I’m in a condo parkade?”
“What if it’s wedged into a tight alley?”

That’s where the local advantage matters.

Our fully licensed tow team picks up across Metro Vancouver—including Burnaby (Metrotown, Brentwood), Richmond, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, New West, Coquitlam, Surrey, Delta, Langley, and Maple Ridge—and we’re used to the real-world challenges: narrow streets, underground parking, short notice, and strict building access.

Pickup is free. Period.

We can come to your driveway, street parking, office lot, or even a roadside spot near Highway 1, Knight Street Bridge, Marine Drive, Kingsway, or Lougheed Highway. In many areas, we can arrange same-day pickup—sometimes within the hour.

Our job is to remove the headache, not add to it.

3) Plates Off, Money In Hand — Clean, Safe, Done

This is the moment people want to feel certain—because you’ve probably heard stories.

When we arrive, it’s straightforward:

  • We confirm the vehicle details (quickly)

  • You hand over the keys and plates

  • You get paid on the spot (cash or certified funds)

  • You receive a receipt to make the next steps easy

We also make the ICBC part less stressful. You’ll have what you need to cancel insurance and return plates without confusion.

And then it’s over.

No awkward back-and-forth. No dragging it out. No second guessing. Just relief—because the car is gone, the space is yours again, and you’ve been paid fairly for something that was turning into a problem.

Vehicles & Situations We Buy

  • Scrap, junk, or written-off cars that won’t start or lack paperwork

  • Running daily drivers you’d rather convert to cash today than sell privately

  • Financed or leased vehicles—we liaise with lenders to clear titles fast

  • Motorcycles, trucks, SUVs, and fleet vans across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, the North Shore, and the Fraser Valley

Whether your ride has 50 kilometres or 500 thousand, hail dents or a pristine paint job, we’ll make a fair market offer and tow it for free.

Eco-Friendly Auto Recycling

Every vehicle we buy is depolluted and dismantled under B.C.’s End-of-Life Vehicle Regulation, which mandates the safe removal of fluids, batteries, and airbags before shredding. Recovered metals are melted and reused, saving up to 74 percent of the energy needed to create new steel while slashing CO₂ emissions. Parts with life left—engines, transmissions, catalytic converters—re-enter the repair market, keeping other vehicles on the road and reducing waste. Even hybrid and EV components are routed to specialized recyclers to prevent battery toxins from entering landfills. Choosing Cash For Cars means your clunker gets a second life and Vancouver gets cleaner air.

A large pile of crushed and stacked vehicles forms a chaotic mountain in what appears to be a junkyard or scrapyard. The cars are mostly stripped and stacked haphazardly on top of one another against a clear sky.

Because our dispatch yards and recycling partners are right here in the Lower Mainland, we can guarantee same-day service—rain or shine—and keep our carbon footprint low by hauling shorter distances. Two decades in Metro Vancouver give us intimate knowledge of bridge schedules, condo parkade clearances, and ICBC paperwork, so your transaction is smooth from first call to final handshake.
