Frequently Asked Questions

Does CarBrain Work Directly With My Insurance Company When Selling My BMW X1?

CarBrain will still pay cash for crashed cars, including vehicles declared a total loss by your insurance company. We specialize in buying less than perfect vehicles, including trucks with damage.

A fun little fact is that in most states, you can retain a wrecked car your insurance declared a total loss. By buying back your vehicle from your insurance, you can then get a second check when you trade in the car to CarBrain. This way, you are able to maximize how much value you can extract from an unfortunate event such as a car collision.

No insurance? No problem — all we require to buy your car is a certified copy of the title!

How Long Will It Take To Haul Away My BMW X1?

In most cases, towing partners will give you a range of time you can expect them to arrive. However, you can ask for a one-hour heads up. We typically pick up cars in two business days.

If your car is accumulating storage fees, please let us know and we will attempt to pick up your car as fast as possible. While same-day or overnight pick-ups are not always available, your customer service representative can contact the towing company driver to try to speed up the process for you. Although it may not always be possible, we will try our best to help you in these situations.

What Is My Scrap X1 With Engine Problems Worth?

Your junk X1 is still valuable after it's non-functioning.

You can get cash for your car by getting money for it to a salvage car buyer. Buyers can properly recycle aging cars and extract, melt down, recycle and reuse the components inside it. It is important to keep in mind that the present current cash value of your vehicle's scrap pieces will depend on nearby market demands, which means a vehicle may be worth more or less depending on its current location.
