Clear expectations first

Know the process before you decide

Merritt’s discusses access, condition, location, and timing before scheduling. Removal information on this site applies only to vehicles Merritt’s is considering for purchase or recycling.

A call or text is not a guaranteed price or scheduled pickup. Merritt’s confirms the details and terms directly with the vehicle owner.

Describe the pickup setting

Tell Merritt’s whether the vehicle is in a driveway, garage, parking structure, street, yard, or another setting. Gates, low clearances, tight turns, snow, soft ground, and blocked wheels can affect what equipment is appropriate.

Prepare before the truck arrives

Before a confirmed pickup window:

  • Remove personal belongings and important documents
  • Make sure Merritt’s knows about flat or missing tires
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Do not attempt unsafe repairs or repositioning
  • Have the agreed ownership documents and keys ready

Terms come before scheduling

A call or text is not a pickup appointment. Merritt’s confirms the vehicle, any offer, removal terms, and a pickup window directly with you before dispatch.

Common questions

Before you contact Merritt’s

Can I ask about a vehicle that does not run?

Yes. Describe the condition honestly, including whether the vehicle rolls, steers, has all four wheels, and is easy for a truck to access. Merritt’s will confirm whether removal is available for that vehicle and location.

Is this a general towing or repair service?

No. The towing information on this website concerns removal connected to vehicles Merritt’s is considering for purchase or recycling. Merritt’s does not advertise roadside repair or general breakdown towing here.

What if the title or keys are missing?

Tell Merritt’s before scheduling anything. Documentation requirements depend on the vehicle and ownership situation. Merritt’s can explain what it needs, while Minnesota Driver and Vehicle Services remains the authority for title questions.

How quickly will my vehicle be picked up?

Pickup timing depends on the vehicle, location, access, and current schedule. Merritt’s will provide a pickup window only after the details are confirmed; this website does not promise same-day service.
