Yes, cash payment for your vehicle is possible, but check is often used instead.

You can request that the buyer of your car pays you in cash when you arrange the pickup of the vehicle, but this is down to the buyer themselves. Either way, you get paid on collection day!

Plus, your price is guaranteed, so your valuation won’t be renegotiated at the time of pick up.

What are the junk car prices in North Carolina?


The price of junk vehicles in North Carolina (and elsewhere in the US, for that matter) depend primarily on the value of scrap metal at the time you get a quote. Therefore, your car’s junk worth is generally higher the heavier it is. It’s pretty simple: heavy vehicle equals more metal! Either way, you’ll get paid a fair price and your old car will be recycled.

Vehicles that still have a little more life in them may be classified as salvage instead of junk. These cars could have repairable damage and probably still drive. These cars are worth more money, and the offers you receive will reflect this. We might ask you for a little more information about the vehicle, but the extra cash can make it well worth your while.


Frequently Asked Questions

What Do I Need To Junk My Car in North Carolina?

You’ll need the vehicle’s title, valid photo ID, and if your car is under five years old you’ll also need to disclose any damage it’s suffered using the MVR-181 form. Finally, once the car is sold, you’ll need to submit the MVR-608 form to transfer owner to the buyer. All of these forms, and a replacement title if you’ve lost the original, can be obtained through the North Carolina DMV.

How Much Is My Car Worth?

The value of your junk car depends on its make, model, condition, and (most importantly) its weight. If it’s classified as salvage, it’ll be worth even more!

What If The Car Still Runs?

Even better—cars that run or have reusable parts usually earn higher offers. Whether it’s a total lemon or something with a little life left, we’ll lock in the best deal—while you sit back and relax.

Great news! Your car is more like to be considered salvageable if it still runs, which means you’ll get a better offer for it. But whatever condition your car is in, you can sell it with Apex Avenue.

What Type of Vehicles Do You Buy?

Everything! Sedans, pickups, vans, RVs, even commercial vehicles! Get a quote today, whatever you drive!

Is My Car Too Good To Be Considered Junk?

If your vehicle is too good to be junked, it might be salvageable instead. This means it’ll have its parts removed and reused elsewhere, and you’ll get better offers! Find out more here.

What’s the Difference Between Junking vs. Salvaging?

Junk cars are crushed and their materials are recycled. That’s about all there is to it.

Salvage cars, however, are broken apart carefully and their parts are removed. Those parts are then resold or reused to fix up other cars. In fact, some cars sold as salvage might be straight-up repaired themselves!

When and How Do I Get Paid? Can I Receive Cash?

You’ll receive your payment when the vehicle is collected. It’s usually in the form of a check, but some buyers can pay cash if you request.
