Junk car removal across the Twin Cities metro

A disabled car does not need to become your towing project. Tell us where it is and what condition it is in. For vehicles we agree to buy or recycle, we work through the loading details with you.

  • Driveway, garage and lot pickups reviewed
  • Non-running vehicles considered
  • A pickup window agreed directly

Talk directly with a local vehicle buyer

Merritt’s has served vehicle owners since 1988. Call or text during daily business hours to discuss your car and its pickup location.

We explain the offer, any removal charges, payment arrangements, and documents before you decide. A pickup window is agreed after the vehicle and access have been reviewed.

Describe the pickup setting

Explain how the truck reaches the vehicle. Include gates, ramps, low clearances, tight turns, snow, soft ground, slopes, and blocked access. Say whether all wheels are present and whether the car rolls and steers.

At a repair shop, apartment, or business, coordinate authorization with whoever controls the property. Do not assume an address alone provides access to a shared garage or locked lot.

Prepare before the truck arrives

Once the pickup window is agreed, use this checklist.

  • Remove belongings, documents, remotes, and toll tags
  • Arrange the agreed ownership paperwork and keys
  • Make sure any gate or property access is coordinated
  • Keep people and pets away from the loading area
  • Leave unsafe vehicle movement to the agreed pickup plan

Pickup costs and timing

We discuss removal terms with the offer, including any charge. The vehicle, location, loading conditions, and available schedule determine the pickup plan.

Mention a deadline during the first conversation. Do not promise a property manager that a car will be removed at a particular time until that window has been confirmed with us.

Common questions

Before you sell your vehicle

Do you consider cars that do not run?

Yes. Tell us what is wrong, whether all wheels are present, and whether the vehicle rolls and steers. We review non-running and damaged vehicles individually and discuss a suitable pickup plan.

Is pickup free, and how soon can it happen?

Ask about removal costs when we discuss the offer. We confirm any charges and a pickup window for the actual vehicle, location, access, and schedule before you agree. Same-day availability and free pickup are not guaranteed for every job.

Which Twin Cities areas do you serve?

Merritt’s is based in Brooklyn Center and serves Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding Twin Cities communities. Our service-area directory covers the north, south, east, and west metro. Send the exact pickup location so we can confirm availability, access, and terms for your vehicle.

Do you offer emergency roadside towing?

Our vehicle removal is for cars Merritt’s agrees to buy or recycle. For a breakdown, roadside repair, impound release, or transport to a repair shop, contact an appropriate towing or roadside-assistance provider.
