Non-Running cars we buy in Scottsdale
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.
Scottsdale has about 249,950 residents in Maricopa County.
Our free form refers Scottsdale sellers to an online offer for non-running vehicles. If accepted, the buyer arranges towing from an accessible location in Maricopa 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 Arizona: title & DMV rules
Arizona requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Scottsdale driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Arizona 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 Arizona MVD issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Arizona is Form 96-0236 (Title and Registration Application).
- License plates
- Remove your plate — Arizona plates stay with you and can move to another vehicle.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Submit the Sold Notice through AZ MVD's ServiceArizona portal, generally within 10 days of the sale.
- What Arizona salvage buyers must do
- Arizona offers a Bonded Title program through MVD when proof of ownership is incomplete. Surety bond equals 1.5x the vehicle's value and is held for 3 years.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as AZ requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
For the full walkthrough — paperwork, no-title options, and current AZ payout ranges — read our guide to selling a junk car in Arizona.
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Arizona MVD.
