Damaged Car Buyers for Wrecked and Accident Vehicles
We buy damaged cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans as they sit. You do not need to fix, clean, or strip anything first.
The offer depends on the car. The Automotive Recyclers of Canada lists year, make, model, mileage, condition, and location as value factors.
For mechanical failure without major body damage, see our non-running car buying service and the details that help an offer.
Hail Damage
Dented roofs, hoods, and trunk lids, plus cracked glass. Tell us if the car still drives.
Flood and Water Damage
Wet carpets, water in the cabin, or electrical faults after a flood. Tell us how high the water reached.
Fire Damage
Engine bay fires and burned interiors. Send photos of the burned area and any ownership papers you still have.
Mechanical Failure
Seized engines, failed transmissions, and cars that will not start. Damage does not have to show on the outside.
Missing Parts
Missing wheels, panels, or a stolen catalytic converter. Tell us what is gone, because missing parts change the offer.
Insurance Write-Offs, Salvage, and Non-Repairable Status
We assess written-off, salvage, and non-repairable vehicles when you have authority to sell them. The recorded status affects whether a vehicle can be repaired for road use or is limited to parts and scrap.
Not sure of the status? Your registration papers or your insurer can confirm it. If a claim is still open, talk to your insurer before you sell.
| Insurer write-off | An insurance loss is not enough to identify the recorded vehicle status. Confirm ownership and status with your insurer; Alberta vehicles recorded as salvage need a Salvage Vehicle Inspection before re-registration. |
|---|---|
| Salvage | The car can be repaired. It must pass a Salvage Vehicle Inspection before it can be registered again. |
| Rebuilt | A salvage car that passes inspection becomes rebuilt. That status stays with the car for life. |
| Non-repairable | The car cannot be re-registered in Alberta. It can only be sold as scrap or dismantled for parts. |
| Manitoba (MPI) | Manitoba Public Insurance uses Irreparable, Salvageable, and Rebuilt. Irreparable means parts or scrap only. |
Sell As-Is, Repair It, or Sell Privately?
Each path suits a different car. Compare the work, the time, and the money before you decide.
Sell As-Is to Us
Send photos and get an offer. If you accept, we tow the car free when we buy it in our service area.
Repair, Then Sell
Get a repair estimate and compare it with what the car is worth once fixed. A rebuilt status stays with the car.
Private Sale
A listing on Kijiji or Facebook Marketplace can suit a car that still drives. Expect messages, showings, and lien questions.
What Photos Help the Offer?
Clear photos let us quote the real car, not a guess. Show the damage as it is. Do not clean it up first.
If the car sits at a body shop or tow yard, send the yard's name and its release rules too.
- All four sides, taken from a few steps back
- Close-ups of the main damage
- The dashboard with the odometer showing, if it powers on
- The VIN on the dash or the driver door jamb
- Under the hood, especially after a flood or fire
- Any missing wheels, panels, or parts
Accident Car Removal From a Body Shop, Tow Yard, or Home
We collect damaged cars from body shops, tow yards, storage lots, driveways, and alleys. Towing is free when we buy the car in our service area.
Storage fees at shops and yards can keep adding up. Tell us the release rules and any deadline so we can plan the pickup.
Body Shop or Collision Centre
Ask the shop to release the car to us. Tell us their hours and who on staff signs it out.
Tow Yard or Storage Lot
Ask the yard what it needs before it releases the car. Some ask for fees or the owner's ID first.
Home, Alley, or Parkade
Tell us if the car rolls and steers. Locked steering, flat tires, or low parkade clearance change the loading plan.
Outside Edmonton
We also collect in nearby towns such as St. Albert, Sherwood Park, and Leduc. In Winnipeg, we use our own trucks.
Ownership and Payment
The registered owner, or someone with authority to sign, completes the sale at pickup. We pay at the handoff and confirm the payment method before pickup.
Before choosing a buyer, use our pick-and-pull cash-for-cars comparison to check the offer amount, collection terms, and payment arrangements.
| Photo ID | Valid government photo ID for the person who signs. |
|---|---|
| Proof of ownership | The registration or other ownership papers for the car. |
| Bill of sale | Alberta's standard bill of sale, form REG3126, lists names, addresses, the VIN, the price, and both signatures. |
| Liens | If a lender holds a lien, a lender payout or discharge is needed. A registry agent can run a VIN lien search. |
| Licence plates | Alberta plates stay with you, not the car. Cancel the registration at a registry agent with form REG3106. |
| Insurance | Call your insurer to cancel or change your coverage after the sale. |

Cash for Damaged Cars Questions
Do you buy cars that were in an accident?
Yes. We buy accident-damaged cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans as-is. Send photos of the damage and tell us where the car sits. We quote it without any repairs.
Will you buy a car my insurer wrote off?
Yes, when ownership is clear. Tell us the status on the paperwork, such as salvage or non-repairable. If a claim is still open, talk to your insurer before you sell.
Do you buy flood or fire-damaged cars?
Yes. Tell us how high the water reached or where the fire started. Photos under the hood and inside the cabin help us quote it.
Is towing free for a damaged car?
Towing is free when we buy the car in our service area. That covers Edmonton, nearby towns such as St. Albert and Leduc, and Winnipeg. We do not offer roadside or accident-scene towing.
Can you pick up from a body shop or tow yard?
Yes, once the shop or yard releases the car. Send the address, the release rules, and any storage deadline. We confirm the earliest time when you accept the offer.
How do I get paid?
We pay at the handoff when the sale is complete. We confirm the payment method with you before pickup.
Check our pickup service areas and send the exact collection address when requesting an offer.
