Private sale or selling to us?
A quick, honest comparison for Burnaby car owners trying to decide.
| If... | Private sale | Selling to us |
|---|---|---|
| It needs major work | Most buyers walk away or lowball you | We price it as it sits |
| It doesn't run | The buyer needs a tow anyway, so few bother | Running isn't required |
| Dealing with people | Messages, test drives and no-shows | One conversation with us |
| How long it takes | Days to weeks, sometimes longer | Pickup on a day that works for you |
| The price | Can be higher for a clean car that runs well | Based on the car as-is |
Being straight with you: if your car runs well and looks good, a private sale will probably get you more. We're the better call when it doesn't, or when you just want it dealt with.
Cars we buy as-is
Whatever state it is in, we look at it the same way. If it has been sitting for months, our junk car removal page covers the pickup side.
Engine trouble
Seized, knocking, slipping or stuck in one gear. We quote it without a diagnosis.
Accident damage
Front end gone, bent frame, airbags out. Damage changes the number, not the answer.
Written off
If you kept the car after a total loss, we'll still quote it.
Failed repairs
You've already put money into it and it's still not right.
Worn out
Past the point where anyone wants to put more into it.
Just done with it
It runs. You just don't want the hassle of selling it yourself.
How to get the best price for your car
Small things that make a real difference to your quote. For the paperwork itself, see how to scrap a car in Burnaby.
Keep it complete
Don't pull the battery, wheels or catalytic converter before you sell. Missing parts lower the number.
Be straight about the condition
An accurate description means fewer surprises on pickup day.
Text a few photos
Front, back, both sides and the dash with the odometer showing.
Have the registration ready
It is the APV250, usually in the glovebox. It speeds up the handover.
Mention any loan
If there's still a lien on the car, tell us up front. It usually has to be cleared first.
Selling your car: common questions
Will I get more money selling my car privately?
If it runs well and looks good, probably. If it needs major work, doesn't run or has been written off, a private sale is a lot of effort for a small return, and selling it as-is to us is usually simpler.
Do you buy cars that still run?
Yes. If you're done with it and don't want to deal with listings and test drives, we'll make you an offer.
Do you buy written-off cars in Burnaby?
Yes. If your insurer wrote it off and you kept it, or you have a car that isn't worth fixing after an accident, send us the details.
Can I sell a car that still has a loan on it?
Tell us up front. A loan or lien usually has to be paid out before ownership can be transferred, so check with your lender first.
How do I get a price for my car?
Fill in the quote form on this page, or call or text (236) 239-6002 with the year, make and model and what's wrong with it. Photos help.
