Yes. John's Famous buys vehicles in any condition, including wrecked, flooded and non-running cars. You can drive it in, tow it in, or ask about junk car pickup.
Do I need a title to sell a junk car in Florida?

Junk car prices depend on the vehicle's weight, whether it is complete, and current scrap metal prices. Call the yard with the year, make and model for a quote.

FAQ
Junk car FAQ
Do you pick up junk cars from my home?
Yes. Junk car pickup is available to individual customers in our service areas. The towing cost is deducted from your payout. Call the yard nearest you to schedule a pickup.
What do I need to bring to sell my car?
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID and the title if you have it (cash with a title, check without). Florida law requires scrap yards to record seller identification for each sale.
Can I sell a car without keys?
Usually, yes. Missing keys don't stop a vehicle from being scrapped as long as the sale follows Florida title or derelict vehicle laws.
What should I take out of my car first?
Remove personal belongings, papers, toll transponders and your license plate. Florida plates should be returned or transferred, not left on the car.
Do I get more if the car is complete?
Generally, yes. Vehicles with the engine, transmission and catalytic converter still in place usually weigh and pay more than stripped cars.
