Non-Running cars we buy in Germantown
Cars that don't start are our specialty. Free towing is always included — you never need to get the car running to sell it to us.
Germantown has about 19,982 residents in Washington County.
Our free form refers Germantown sellers to an online offer for non-running vehicles. If accepted, the buyer arranges towing from an accessible location in Washington County.
What counts as a non-running car?
Won't start, dead battery, seized engine, blown head gasket, transmission failure, electrical issues — if it can't be driven onto a flatbed, we still want to buy it.
Most cars we purchase don't run. Our offers already assume the worst, so non-running condition usually won't drop your price further.
Free towing — always
Every non-running pickup includes a free flatbed tow. You don't need to push, jump-start, or move the car at all. The driver will winch it from your driveway, yard, or street.
How much is a non-running car worth?
Even non-runners have real value — the catalytic converter, engine block, transmission, body panels, and scrap metal all generate offer dollars.

Selling a junk car in Wisconsin: title & DMV rules
Wisconsin requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Germantown driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Wisconsin uses a bonded (surety) title when the chain of ownership is broken: you post a surety bond — typically 1.5× the vehicle's appraised value — and the Wisconsin DOT Division of Motor Vehicles issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Wisconsin is MV2119 (Duplicate Title) / Junked Vehicle Notice.
- License plates
- Remove the plates — Wisconsin plates stay with the owner and are transferable.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- File a notice of sale with the Wisconsin DMV, online or by mail.
- What Wisconsin salvage buyers must do
- Wisconsin issues duplicate titles on MV2119 and has a specific junked-vehicle notice used when a car is retired to scrap rather than resold. Filing the seller's notification (MV2928) is what closes the record in your name.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as WI requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current WI payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in Wisconsin.
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Wisconsin DOT Division of Motor Vehicles.
