Fifteen minutes down Dixie

We come into Homewood on Halsted or down Dixie Highway, about fifteen minutes from 426 E 142nd St. It is well inside our normal range and a Homewood stop does not need special planning.

Same-day is usually available and we schedule evening windows, which matters in a commuter town. If you are on the train all day, we can come when you are actually home rather than when it suits us.

A commuter town, and the car that stopped commuting

Homewood is built around the Metra Electric line, and a lot of what we buy here is the direct result of that: a second car that was only ever used for the short hop to the station, then stopped being needed, then stopped running, then sat.

Those cars are often low-mileage but long-dead — a battery gone flat years back, fuel gone stale, brakes seized. None of that lowers a junk price. We are buying weight and salvageable parts, and a car that has not moved since 2019 weighs what it always did.

Older brick homes, alleys and permit blocks

The streets near downtown Homewood run to older brick homes with detached garages off an alley, and parking near the station is tight and often permitted. That combination is the practical complication here rather than the car itself.

Tell us whether the vehicle is in a garage, in an alley, or on a permit street, and roughly how much room the driver has. We handle all three routinely — the truck we send just depends on the approach.

Illinois paperwork without the guesswork

Illinois ownership runs through the Secretary of State, and a car going for scrap follows the junking process rather than an ordinary title transfer. Our drivers carry the paperwork and complete it at the curb in minutes.

Have the title plus two forms of ID if you can. No title is a weekly occurrence for us — call with the year and the VIN and we will confirm before a truck comes out. Pull your plates first, and cancel the insurance after the tow rather than before it.

★ THE PROCESS

Three steps.
Often same day.

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.

STEP 01

Call us

Year, make, model, and honest condition. Thirty seconds on the phone and we quote you on the spot. Lines are open 24 hours.

STEP 02

We send the truck

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.

STEP 03

Cash, then it's gone

Driver checks the vehicle, confirms the price, hands you cash, completes the paperwork, and hauls it off.

★ WHAT WE TAKE

If it has four wheels,
we'll make an offer.

  • Non-running, dead battery, blown engine or transmission
  • Accident damage, total losses, insurance write-offs
  • Flood, fire and storm damage
  • Failed emissions or inspection, not worth the repair
  • Sitting in the yard for years, expired plates, flat tires
  • High-mileage trade-ins the dealer wouldn't touch
  • Vans, pickups, box trucks and full-size SUVs

No title? We'll still buy it.

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:

  • The title, if you've got it — fastest and pays the most
  • Registration, an old insurance card, or a bill of sale
  • Two forms of ID, one a driver's license or state ID

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

Know what moves
the number.

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.

RAISES IT

Complete & heavy

Engine and transmission still in it, catalytic converter attached, all four wheels on, newer model year, title in hand.

LOWERS IT

Stripped or missing

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.

YOUR CALL

Nothing is forced

If the price at the curb doesn't work for you, walk away. No tow charge, no callout fee, no obligation to sell.

★ QUESTIONS

Before you call

Do you really cover Homewood?

Yes. Homewood is part of our regular route from our yard at 426 E 142nd St in Dolton, and the towing is free.

How fast can you pick up?

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.

Do I need the title?

No. We buy vehicles without titles and handle the ownership paperwork. Have the year and VIN ready when you call.

Can you come in the evening? I am on the train all day.

Yes. Homewood is about fifteen minutes from the yard and we schedule evening and overnight windows specifically for commuters. Tell us when you are actually home.

The car is low mileage but has not started in years. Is it worth less?

No. A junk price is built on weight and salvageable parts, not on whether it runs. Just tell us it is a non-runner so the driver brings the right equipment.

One call, a real number, and cash in your hand when the truck pulls away. We're open right now.
