You’ll see both terms used around Richmond, and they usually mean the same thing to us. Here’s how they actually compare.
How the two terms differ
- Cash for cars often gets used for running, driveable vehicles
- Junk car removal usually covers non-running, damaged, or scrap vehicles
- Both typically include free towing and same-day payment with us
Which one applies to your vehicle
It doesn’t really matter which term you use when you call. Tell us the condition of the vehicle and we’ll give you a fair quote either way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it matter which term I use when I call?
Not at all. We use the terms interchangeably – what matters is the vehicle’s condition and location.
Do running cars get more money than junk cars?
Usually, yes, since running vehicles are worth more for resale. We’ll factor that into your quote.
Is towing free either way?
Yes. Whether you call it cash for cars or junk car removal, towing is included at no extra cost across our Richmond service area.
