The car does not need to run to request an offer. Describe whether it starts, rolls or steers, and confirm the pickup arrangements when you accept.
Pickup in Somerset is arranged after you accept an offer; timing depends on local tow-operator availability.
Tell us where the car actually sits before the truck rolls. Describe tight access, low clearance, fences or other obstacles so the pickup team can assess access. Confirm who needs to be present and which documents to bring.

Somerset seller checklist
Title in your name or your Kentucky Transportation Cabinet replacement paperwork under way, photo ID, and a lien release if the car was ever financed.
Car emptied — glovebox, console, trunk, under the seats, spare-tire well — a photo of the VIN and odometer, and plates handled per Kentucky rules.
A written offer with pickup and payment terms confirmed, a signed bill of sale you keep, your Kentucky sale notice filed afterwards, and insurance cancelled only once the car has physically left.
