San Ramon, California Junkyards & Salvage Yards

You'll get paid in cash or check as soon as we arrive to tow your junk car away. The way it works is that you call us up, and you'll arrange a time for junk car removal after you've accepted our top quote. When we meet you at the agreed upon time, we'll sign over the necessary paperwork and also pay you right away.

We value your time, so we try to be as quick as possible with our pickup time. That being said, the condition and location of your car can affect the speed at which it is picked up. For example, if your car is not mobile we have to send a special kind of tow truck, which can take more time. If you want to know the exact pickup time for your car our agent would be happy to give you the exact time. Our main concern is making sure you get the most money for your car without it becoming a hassle.

You may get cash or a check for your junk car. We'll tell you what we're able to offer before we arrange your pick up appointment. Whether we pay by cash or check is dependant on your nearest tow truck operator and whether they have the secutiry level which allows them to carry high amounts of cash. If you receive a certified check, it can be deposited the day of the sale.

Your junk car sale will go smoothly and quickly if you've got your title, registration, and ID ready. However, if you're missing any of these papers then Rusty's is always happy to help you get your hands on them. All you have to do is call us during our open hours, and tell us that you're interested in selling your junk car, but that you need to get your paperwork in order first.

Transmissions are often the first major component of a junk car to wear out and they can cost more to replace than your car is worth. However, that does not mean that your car is worthless. We have lots of ways to extract value from a junk car, even one that has a broken or missing transmission.

You can always sell a junk car to us, no matter which parts it may be missing - and that include the keys. An older junk car that's going to be taken apart for scrap doesn't require keys at all, but if you have a car that's in good enough condition to resell, you'll probably be able to get a lot more cash if you find a copy of the keys.

Yes we do buy cars that have been damaged by hail. A strong hail will surely damage a car's windows hood and its body turning a once beautiful automobile into a piece of junk. That said you will still get a top dollar quote for your hail damaged car when you sell it to us. Call us today and find out how you can get a good quote for your damaged unit.
