How towing fits the sale
First we review the vehicle and its location. Then we discuss the offer, any removal charges, ownership documents, and the loading arrangement. A pickup window follows once the terms and access are clear.

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

Details the driver needs
Describe the surface, slope, clearance, wheel and tire condition, and whether the car rolls and steers. Tell us about locked garages, gates, removed parts, and another vehicle blocking access.
For a car at a shop or managed property, arrange release and access with the appropriate person before scheduling. Do not attempt improvised towing to move the car into a different position.
Need roadside help instead?
Our removal service is connected to vehicles we buy or recycle. It is not emergency roadside dispatch, mechanical repair, impound release, or transport between repair shops. Contact an appropriate roadside-assistance provider for those situations.

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.
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.
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.
