Protect Yourself and Your Payout
When it’s time to sell your old car for scrap, you deserve a fast, fair, and transparent transaction. Unfortunately, not all cash-for-cars services operate with your best interests in mind. Some rely on deceptive tactics to lower their costs at your expense. As a trusted and licensed expert in the industry, we want to empower you with the knowledge to spot these red flags and ensure you get the highest, guaranteed cash offer for your vehicle.
Red Flag 1: Hidden Towing or Administration Fees
The Trap: You receive a quote over the phone that sounds great, only to have the tow truck driver show up and deduct hundreds of dollars for “towing fees,” “fuel surcharges,” or “paperwork administration.” This is a classic tactic to lure you in with a highball offer that doesn’t reflect what you’ll actually receive.
Our Guarantee: When we give you a quote, that is the final price you will be paid. Our professional towing service is 100% FREE, with no hidden charges or last-minute deductions. The price we agree on is the cash you get, period.
Red Flag 2: The ‘Bait and Switch’ Price Change
The Trap: After arriving to inspect your vehicle, the driver suddenly claims the damage is “worse than described” or points out minor issues you already disclosed. They then use this as an excuse to significantly lower the initial offer, knowing you’re more likely to accept a lower price since the truck is already there.
Our Guarantee: We buy cars in ANY condition—running or not. We base our initial quote on the honest description you provide. Once your offer is accepted, it is guaranteed. We do not nickel-and-dime you upon arrival; we honor our word.
Red Flag 3: Delayed Payment or Payment via Cheque
The Trap: The company promises instant cash but upon pickup, the driver claims they don’t have the funds and will “send a cheque” or do an “e-transfer later.” This often leads to frustrating delays, bounced cheques, or worse, no payment at all.
Our Guarantee: Instant Cash on the Spot. Our tow truck drivers are equipped to pay you directly at the time of pickup. You get your money in hand the moment your vehicle is loaded, ensuring a secure and immediate transaction.
