We're your trusted car buyers:

Nicknamed the “Crossroads of America,” Indianapolis is the state capital of Indiana and home to a rich sports heritage thanks to the Colts, Pacers, and of course the legendary Indianapolis 500 race. And with an area of over 368 square miles, a working and reliable car is an absolute must for anyone living in Indianapolis. If your old junk car is quickly getting past its prime, then it’s probably time to sell it off and upgrade.

But local junkyards and Indianapolis junk car buyers can often be hard to deal with. You might have to tow your car across town, just to have multiple buyers offer scrap prices, or put up ads in the paper and hope you can find a private buyer. It’s a frustrating and time-consuming process, and it’s absolutely unnecessary. Because with CarBrain you can get a guaranteed online offer in less than 90 seconds, without leaving the comfort of your home or office.

Do I Have To Tell My Insurance Company That I'm Selling You My Car?

Whether you have insurance on your vehicle or not does not affect CarBrain.com quotes. We can pay cash for uninsured vehicles in any condition. We also buy vehicles declared a total loss regularly.

How Much Can I Scrap My Vehicle For In Indianapolis?

Getting money for your scrap vehicle can be surprisingly profitable. Even when your car doesn't run, it still has value. For instance, there is a lot of metals that knowledgeable vehicle buyers can properly recycle and extract from the car, including aluminum, steel, platinum and more to extract and reuse.

How much money you can get for your vehicle depends on a few factors. One is its size — larger vehicles, trucks and vans have more metal than smaller vehicles. Another relevant factor is where the car is currently located — different steel mills rely on local values to determine the value of metals found in recycled vehicle parts.

Your vehicle in Indianapolis could be worth different prices across the country. The easiest way to find out your car's value is to receive an estimate from CarBrain.com.

What Do You Base Your Quotes On? Will Driving It To You Increase My Offer?

Along with considering your year, make and model, we also look at your vehicle's current actual condition, mileage, vehicle history report and more. We'll consider any upgrades you've made to the car, as well as others factors like its current location (be sure to provide the right current address for your car). The best way to get the most accurate offer possible is to provide the VIN and photos.

Replacing pieces in your car may not necessarily get you a better quote — valuable parts like the motor and transmission are costly to replace, and less valuable parts won't significantly increase your offer.

Additionally, CarBrain cannot guarantee that your offer will increase if you wait to sell it. Estimates are based on current market rates in Indianapolis, Indiana, which can be unpredictable. Towing is included in all offers for FREE — which means bringing it to us isn't necessary and won't affect your offer.
