Step one: the call
Pickup starts with a call. You describe the car: the year, the make and the model; the condition — does it run, what is damaged, what is missing; whether the catalytic converter is still on the car; where the car sits, and whether the wheels turn; and the title — do you have it, is it lost, or is there a lien on it. With those five things, the provider can explain the offer and its terms.
The call is short. Five things, in order, and the provider takes the address and the details. Without them, the provider cannot explain the offer, and the pickup cannot be arranged — because the pickup depends on knowing where the car is and whether it can move.
Step two: the offer and its terms
After the call, the provider explains the offer and its terms for your car, and what paperwork is needed. The offer depends on the car as you described it, and the terms are the provider's — what is included, what is needed from you, and when the pickup will be arranged.
If the offer changes at pickup, the provider explains why, in specific terms. The reason should be specific — the converter is missing, the title has a lien, the car does not start — and it can be checked. You are not obliged to accept a changed offer. If the offer changes and you do not want to accept it, you can decline the pickup and the sale does not go ahead.
Step three: the paperwork
Have the title and a photo ID ready. The title is the document that matters for the sale, and the provider explains what is needed if the title is lost or if there is a lien on it. If you have the keys, have them ready — keys are not required, but they help.
Remove your personal belongings from the car, and take off the license plate — in Florida the plate stays with you, not with the car. Clear a path to the car, and move anything that blocks access. If the car is in a field or behind a barn, say so on the call, and describe the ground.
Step four: the pickup
The provider arranges a pickup time with you and picks the car up from where it sits. The car does not need to run, and it does not need to be moved to the road. Cars that will not start, cars with a dead battery or a seized engine, and cars that cannot move under their own power are all picked up by the provider.
At pickup, the provider handles the title transfer — the title is signed over, and the transfer is recorded, so the car is no longer in your name. The license plate comes off before pickup. And the car goes to a scrap facility, where fluids are drained, reusable parts are removed, and the rest is recycled as scrap metal.
Call now and describe the car, hear the offer and its terms, have the title and a photo ID ready, and the provider arranges a pickup time with you and picks the car up from where it sits.
No. Cars that will not start, cars with a dead battery or a seized engine, and cars that cannot be moved under their own power are all picked up by the provider.
The title and a photo ID, your personal belongings out of the car, the license plate taken off, and a clear path to the car so the provider can reach it.
Ask the provider to explain why, in specific terms. You are not obliged to accept a changed offer — if it changes and you do not want to accept it, you can decline the pickup and the sale does not go ahead.
The provider arranges a pickup time with you after the call. The timing depends on the provider's routes and on where the car sits — a car in Ocala is on the provider's regular routes, and a car in the rural ring is picked up on the route that covers it.
