Following our 3-step process is the quickest and easiest way to get rid of your scrap cars or unwanted vehicles.
Sundre is the furthest west we go on a regular basis. From our NE Calgary yard it is the QEII north to Olds, then Highway 27 west for about 40 kilometres to the Red Deer River, roughly 122 kilometres and an hour and thirty-five minutes each way. A town of about 2,700 with a forestry and oil-and-gas base sends us a different mix than the city does: crew-cab diesels, service trucks with worn-out drivelines, and campers’ tow vehicles that gave up after one too many trips up Highway 22.
We buy all of it. Call 403-390-0585 for a cash for junk cars Sundre quote, and if you want a number before we commit a truck to the drive, send photos and the odometer reading. The offer sits between $100 and $10,000 and does not shrink when the driver shows up.
A Sundre pickup is a dedicated trip, so we group it with any other jobs in Olds, Didsbury or along Highway 27 that week. That usually means a booked day rather than same-day service, and we will tell you which day when you call. On the day itself, we give you a phone call from Olds so you have roughly forty minutes’ notice. Vehicles in town, out along Highway 584, or on a lease road west of the river are all within reach of our flatbed.
Oil and gas service vehicles from the Sundre area are among the better-paying junk vehicles we handle. A Duramax or Power Stroke with a cracked block still carries a turbo, injectors, axles and a frame that resellers want, so those trucks sit in the upper half of our range. Older gas pickups and family cars from town are priced on parts plus metal. We also take quads, sleds and trailers if you want them gone in the same load.
You keep your licence plate; Alberta plates belong to the person, not the vehicle. Bring the registration certificate or your original bill of sale plus ID, and we write you a bill of sale in return. The registration can be cancelled at Sundre Registries at 406 Main Avenue West, so you do not have to drive anywhere to close it off. If the truck was registered to a company that no longer operates, call us before pickup and we will walk you through what is needed.
West of Sundre the roads are gravel and the shoulders are soft. Between late March and the middle of May our flatbed can bog down on a lease road, so we sometimes ask to wait for the ground to dry or meet you at a firmer pull-out. In winter, Highway 27 drifts badly between Olds and town. None of that changes what we pay; it only changes which day the truck rolls.
Yes, though we try to line up two or three jobs on Highway 27 for the same day. If your vehicle is the only one that week we still come; it may just be a few days out rather than tomorrow.
No formal minimum. Even a stripped car that is only worth scrap weight gets bought and towed free from Sundre. The price reflects the drive, but you are never asked to pay for the tow.
Usually. Give us the road name or GPS pin and describe the surface. Dry gravel is fine. If it has rained for a week we may ask to wait a few days rather than risk sinking the flatbed.
It depends on who legally owns it. If the company is dissolved and you have paperwork showing the vehicle passed to you, we can usually proceed. Call first and tell us what documents you have.
Yes, if they fit with the vehicle on the flatbed. We price them separately and pay for everything at once. Let us know when you book so the driver plans the load.
Take the plate and our bill of sale to Sundre Registries at 406 Main Avenue West. They cancel the registration on the spot. Then call your insurer to end the policy on that vehicle.
