How much is a 2005 Honda Odyssey worth in Portland?
Portland is a small town of about 12,226 residents in Jay County, in the Midwest region — tow distance is the biggest single factor here, so we route the closest flatbed rather than the cheapest.
Offers for a 2005 Honda Odyssey in the Portland, IN market depend on mileage, mechanical condition, body damage, and current local scrap-metal pricing. In this market a sedan of this vintage typically pays $200–$950, an SUV or crossover $425–$1,875, and a full-size truck $625–$3,650.
Midwest region scrap market — updated September 2026. In the Midwest, dense steel-mill and shredder capacity across the Great Lakes keeps ferrous bids strong, which is why Portland offers sit where they do rather than tracking a national average.
Scrap steel is trading around $205/ton in the Midwest market, which sets the floor on Portland offers. Catalytic-converter condition, intact drivetrain, and complete parts (wheels, body panels, interior) all push the Odyssey above that floor.
Selling a 2005 Odyssey in Portland — what to expect
Enter your 2005 Honda Odyssey details (pre-filled above), accept the cash offer, and schedule a free pickup. A licensed Portland tow operator confirms condition at the curb, signs the bill of sale, hands over payment, and tows the car away — usually within 24–48 hours of accepting.
Common reasons Portland owners junk a 2005 Odyssey
2005 Odyssey 3.5L V6 with VCM eats rear motor mounts, burns oil through stuck rings, and the 5-speed automatic continues to fail around 120k. Honda Odyssey owners overwhelmingly sell these vans because of the well-documented 5-speed automatic transmission failure between 100,000 and 130,000 miles — Honda issued a TSB but never a full recall. The 3.5L V6 with Variable Cylinder Management eats rear motor mounts and burns oil through stuck VCM rings, leading to misfire codes and torque-converter shudder.
Whatever the reason — transmission failure, blown head gasket, accident damage, rust, or repairs that exceed the 2005 Odyssey's retail value — we'll still make a guaranteed offer in Portland.

Selling a junk car in Indiana: title & DMV rules
Indiana requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Portland driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Indiana 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 Indiana DMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Indiana is Application for Duplicate Title + Bill of Sale.
- License plates
- Remove the plate and keep it for transfer or surrender it to a BMV branch.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- Indiana has no seller notice form; keep the bill of sale and cancel insurance after pickup.
- What Indiana salvage buyers must do
- Indiana allows licensed salvage buyers to purchase vehicles when the owner cannot locate the title, provided ID and a notarized Bill of Sale are presented. A bonded title or duplicate title is typically required before a standard private sale.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as IN requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Indiana DMV.

(855) 490-2398Junk car FAQs — Portland, Indiana
- How much can I get for my 2005 Honda Odyssey in Portland, Indiana?
- Offers in Portland, Indiana for a 2005 Honda Odyssey typically range from $150–$15,000. The five biggest price factors are: (1) year, make, and model, (2) whether it runs and drives, (3) current Indiana 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 Portland, Indiana?
- Usually yes. A running, driveable 2005 Honda Odyssey in Portland, Indiana often pays 30–60% 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 — get both quotes before you decide.
- Do you pick up 2005 Honda Odysseys in Portland, Indiana for free?
- Yes — free flatbed towing is included with every offer in Portland, Indiana. The price you accept is the cash you receive at pickup, no tow fee deducted.
- How fast can you pick up a 2005 Honda Odyssey in Portland, Indiana?
- Most Portland, Indiana pickups are scheduled within 24–48 hours of accepting your offer. Same-day removal is often available in the Portland, Indiana metro area when you book before noon, depending on local tow-operator availability.
- Can I sell a 2005 Honda Odyssey in Portland, Indiana without a title?
- In most cases, yes — Indiana 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 2005 Honda Odyssey won't start or has a blown engine?
- Non-running, blown-engine, wrecked, and salvage 2005 Honda Odysseys are exactly what we buy every day. Free towing is included.
- Should I clean my junk car before pickup in Portland, Indiana?
- No — you don't need to wash or detail the car for pickup in Portland, Indiana. Just remove any personal items, license plates (most Indiana drivers keep them to return to the DMV), and aftermarket parts you want to keep. Our Portland, Indiana tow operator will handle the rest.
- What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car in Portland, Indiana?
- In most Indiana transactions you'll need a government-issued photo ID and, when available, the vehicle title. Registration helps for no-title purchases. Our Portland, Indiana dispatcher confirms the exact paperwork during booking so you're not surprised at pickup.
- Will you buy my junk car in Portland, Indiana if it's at an impound lot?
- Yes — we routinely buy vehicles out of Portland, Indiana 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 Portland, Indiana facility.
- Do you buy cars with missing parts in Portland, Indiana?
- Yes. Missing doors, hoods, wheels, seats, bumpers, or even a full engine pulled — we still buy them in Portland, Indiana. 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 Portland, Indiana?
- Absolutely — fleet, project pile, or two cars parked side-by-side, we'll buy all of them in Portland, Indiana. 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 Portland, Indiana?
- Most Portland, Indiana 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 Indiana regulations, and the remaining shell is crushed for steel scrap — keeping toxic materials out of Portland, Indiana landfills.
- Do you buy motorcycles, RVs, or vans in Portland, Indiana?
- We buy vans, cargo vans, and minivans in Portland, Indiana every day. Motorcycles and RVs are case-by-case — 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 Portland, Indiana?
- Scrap value in Portland, Indiana is driven by current Indiana ferrous-metal pricing (dollars per ton), the curb weight of your vehicle, and yard demand for specific parts. Heavier vehicles — pickups, SUVs, vans — almost always scrap for more than compact cars in the same condition.
- I just added new parts to my car — does that increase the offer in Portland, Indiana?
- New tires, a fresh battery, a recently replaced catalytic converter, or a rebuilt engine can lift the offer in Portland, Indiana. Mention these upgrades when you request your quote and have receipts ready if possible — our buyers price the car based on actual condition, not just VIN data.
