About Cash for Scrap Junk Cars NWI

Cash for Scrap Junk Cars NWI buys junk, wrecked and scrap cars in north Lake County, Indiana, and picks them up. We make an offer on the car, tow it free, and pay you at pickup.

What we do

We buy cars that are done: ones that don't run, have been in a wreck, are missing parts, or have simply reached the end. Pickups, SUVs and vans too. We don't buy good running cars to resell, and if yours is one, a private sale may pay you more.

The towns on our route

Our trucks cover Gary and ten towns near it: Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago, Munster, Highland, Griffith, Merrillville, Hobart, Lake Station and New Chicago. There's no yard or storefront to visit; the truck comes to wherever the car sits. Porter County, LaPorte County and south Lake County are outside our pickup area. The pickup area page has the details.

How we work

  • The offer comes before anything is booked.
  • Towing is free, and nothing is deducted from the offer for it.
  • Payment happens at pickup, as the car is loaded.
  • Same-day pickup is often possible.
  • No title? We can still help. Indiana scrap sales need either the title or a BMV certificate of authority, and we'll work out which one on the call.

Why this site explains the math

People searching for scrap car prices want a number, and a number on a web page can't know your car. So instead of a price list, this site shows how a scrap price is built: the car's weight, the per-ton rate for whole cars, and what's missing. With that, you can check our offer, or anyone else's. Start with scrap car price per ton.
