★ CHICAGO HEIGHTS, IL · FREE TOWING · OPEN 24 HOURS
Chicago Heights — Dixie Highway, Lincoln Highway, Halsted and the Joe Orr Road industrial belt — is about twenty minutes from our Dolton yard.
Buying junk cars out of Dolton for 25 years. Same yard, same phone number, still answering it.
Your details
Every vehicle is priced over the phone. Give us the year, model, and honest condition and we quote you on the spot — the driver confirms it when he sees the vehicle. Paid in cash at pickup, towing included. We answer 24 hours.
We reach Chicago Heights down Halsted or on I-394, about twenty minutes from 426 E 142nd St. It is a regular part of our southern route and not an out-of-area trip.
Same-day pickup is often available and next-day nearly always is. Nothing is deducted for the distance: the tow is free and the phone quote is the cash the driver counts out.
Chicago Heights has a real industrial base along Joe Orr Road and out toward the rail yards, and the vehicles reflect it. We pull more work trucks, box vans, service vehicles and heavy pickups out of here than out of the residential suburbs west of us.
That is good for your price. Weight sets the floor on a junk car, and a one-ton service truck or a cargo van is in a different bracket to a compact sedan. Racks, boxes, shelving and liners can all stay on the vehicle.
The residential streets, especially the older grid near Dixie and around the east side, run to close-set homes with narrow drives, alleys and single-car garages. Some of the cars we come for have been in the same spot behind the house for well over a decade.
Non-runners, seized brakes, flat tires, cars sunk into gravel — routine work, and none of it reduces the price. What helps is telling us whether the wheels turn and what the surface under the car is, because a gravel pull needs different gear than a concrete pad.
Illinois ownership goes through the Secretary of State, with the junking process for scrapped cars. Our drivers complete it at the curb.
For a personal vehicle: title plus two forms of ID. For a company vehicle: ownership documentation in the business's name plus ID for whoever signs. With nothing at all, call with the year and VIN and explain the history — untitled vehicles are weekly business for us.
★ THE PROCESS
No listing photos, no inspections to schedule, no tire-kickers messaging you at midnight. And no waiting for business hours — we pick up around the clock.
Year, make, model, and honest condition. Thirty seconds on the phone and we quote you on the spot. Lines are open 24 hours.
Pick any window that works, day or night. Most Chicagoland and NW Indiana pickups happen same or next day. You don't lift a thing.
Driver checks the vehicle, confirms the price, hands you cash, completes the paperwork, and hauls it off.
★ WHAT WE TAKE
Half the yards in Chicagoland hang up the second they hear "no title." We don't. We're set up to handle the ownership paperwork on our end, so a missing title doesn't kill the deal.
Bring what you have:
Nothing at all? Call anyway. Tell us the year, the VIN and how you came to have the car, and we'll tell you on the phone whether we can take it. That call costs you nothing.
★ HOW PRICING WORKS
Your phone quote is built from what you tell us. The driver confirms it in person, so the more accurate your description, the closer the cash matches the quote.
Engine and transmission still in it, catalytic converter attached, all four wheels on, newer model year, title in hand.
Converter already cut off, engine or transmission pulled, wheels gone, or damage that wasn't mentioned on the phone. No title also brings it down, since we take on the paperwork.
If the price at the curb doesn't work for you, walk away. No tow charge, no callout fee, no obligation to sell.
★ QUESTIONS
Yes. Chicago Heights is part of our regular route from our yard at 426 E 142nd St in Dolton, and the towing is free.
Often the same day, and we run pickups overnight as well. Tell us your deadline when you call and we will tell you honestly whether we can meet it.
No. We buy vehicles without titles and handle the ownership paperwork. Have the year and VIN ready when you call.
Yes, and they pay considerably better. Junk pricing starts from weight, so a service truck or cargo van is well above a sedan. Ladder racks, shelving and tool boxes can stay on it.
Yes, that is normal work here and it does not lower the price. Tell us it is on gravel rather than concrete so the driver arrives with the right equipment.
One call, a real number, and cash in your hand when the truck pulls away. We're open right now.
