Why sell in Richmond?

Richmond is a small town of about 4,500 residents in Macomb County, in the Midwest region โ€” tow distance is the biggest single factor here, so we route the closest flatbed rather than the cheapest.

Scrap steel is trading around $205/ton in the Midwest market, which sets the floor on Richmond offers. Primary ZIP: 48062.

Midwest region scrap market โ€” updated September 2026. In the Midwest, dense steel-mill and shredder capacity across the Great Lakes keeps ferrous bids strong, which is why Richmond offers sit where they do rather than tracking a national average.

Junk car FAQs โ€” Richmond, MI

How much can I get for my car in Richmond, MI?
Offers in Richmond, MI for a car typically range from $150โ€“$15,000. The five biggest price factors are: (1) year, make, and model, (2) whether it runs and drives, (3) current MI scrap-metal pricing per ton, (4) vehicle weight (trucks and SUVs pay more), and (5) condition of the catalytic converter, engine, and transmission. Most owners get a quote in under 90 seconds.
Do I get more for a running car than a non-running one in Richmond, MI?
Usually yes. A running, driveable car in Richmond, MI often pays 30โ€“60% more than the same vehicle non-running, because it has resale value beyond scrap and parts. That said, non-running cars with intact catalytic converters, low-mileage engines, or in-demand body panels can still pay surprisingly well โ€” get both quotes before you decide.
Do you pick up cars in Richmond, MI for free?
Yes โ€” free flatbed towing is included with every offer in Richmond, MI. The price you accept is the cash you receive at pickup, no tow fee deducted.
How fast can you pick up a car in Richmond, MI?
Most Richmond, MI pickups are scheduled within 24โ€“48 hours of accepting your offer. Same-day removal is often available in the Richmond, MI metro area when you book before noon, depending on local tow-operator availability.
Can I sell a car in Richmond, MI without a title?
In most cases, yes โ€” MI title rules vary, but JunkUrCar's network handles no-title purchases routinely. You'll typically need your registration and a photo ID.
What if my car won't start or has a blown engine?
Non-running, blown-engine, wrecked, and salvage cars are exactly what we buy every day. Free towing is included.
Should I clean my junk car before pickup in Richmond, MI?
No โ€” you don't need to wash or detail the car for pickup in Richmond, MI. Just remove any personal items, license plates (most MI drivers keep them to return to the DMV), and aftermarket parts you want to keep. Our Richmond, MI tow operator will handle the rest.
What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car in Richmond, MI?
In most MI transactions you'll need a government-issued photo ID and, when available, the vehicle title. Registration helps for no-title purchases. Our Richmond, MI dispatcher confirms the exact paperwork during booking so you're not surprised at pickup.
Will you buy my junk car in Richmond, MI if it's at an impound lot?
Yes โ€” we routinely buy vehicles out of Richmond, MI impound and storage lots. You'll need to be the registered owner and we may need a release letter from the lot. Call (855) 490-2398 before booking so we can coordinate with the Richmond, MI facility.
Do you buy cars with missing parts in Richmond, MI?
Yes. Missing doors, hoods, wheels, seats, bumpers, or even a full engine pulled โ€” we still buy them in Richmond, MI. Tell our dispatcher exactly what's missing when you get your quote so the offer reflects the current condition.
Can I sell more than one junk car in Richmond, MI?
Absolutely โ€” fleet, project pile, or two cars parked side-by-side, we'll buy all of them in Richmond, MI. Get a separate quote for each VIN and we can usually schedule a single pickup window.
What happens to my junk car after you buy it in Richmond, MI?
Most Richmond, MI vehicles go to a licensed dismantler or auto recycler. Reusable parts (engines, transmissions, catalytic converters, alternators) are pulled and resold, fluids are drained and recycled per MI regulations, and the remaining shell is crushed for steel scrap โ€” keeping toxic materials out of Richmond, MI landfills.
Do you buy motorcycles, RVs, or vans in Richmond, MI?
We buy vans, cargo vans, and minivans in Richmond, MI every day. Motorcycles and RVs are case-by-case โ€” call (855) 490-2398 with the year, make, model, and condition and we'll quote what we can.
How is the scrap metal price determined for my car in Richmond, MI?
Scrap value in Richmond, MI is driven by current MI ferrous-metal pricing (dollars per ton), the curb weight of your vehicle, and yard demand for specific parts. Heavier vehicles โ€” pickups, SUVs, vans โ€” almost always scrap for more than compact cars in the same condition.
I just added new parts to my car โ€” does that increase the offer in Richmond, MI?
New tires, a fresh battery, a recently replaced catalytic converter, or a rebuilt engine can lift the offer in Richmond, MI. Mention these upgrades when you request your quote and have receipts ready if possible โ€” our buyers price the car based on actual condition, not just VIN data.

Selling a junk car in Michigan: title & DMV rules

Michigan requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Richmond driveway.

If the title is missing
Michigan does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (TR-11L (Application for Duplicate Title)) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in Michigan is TR-11L (Application for Duplicate Title).
License plates
Remove your plate โ€” Michigan plates stay with the owner and can be transferred.
Notice of sale / release of liability
Notify the Michigan Secretary of State of the sale, generally within 15 days.
What Michigan salvage buyers must do
Michigan licensed scrap processors can accept a vehicle without a title if it's reported on the Auto Theft Database and the owner signs a Scrap Vehicle Inventory form. Duplicate title via TR-11L for $15.
  • Sign the seller assignment on the title
  • Complete the odometer disclosure
  • Handle plates as MI requires
  • File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance

Rules change โ€” confirm current forms and filing windows with the Michigan Secretary of State.
