Sell your wrecked or totaled car in Long Beach
Between the 710 truck corridor, the 405, and dense port-city streets, Long Beach vehicles take a beating. If yours came out of a collision wrecked or totaled — or an insurer walked away from the claim — we’ll buy it directly and tow it free from anywhere in the city.
How we buy wrecked cars in Long Beach
Pickups cover all of Long Beach plus Lakewood, Signal Hill, Carson, and San Pedro. Street-parked cars in Belmont Shore or Bixby Knolls, driveway non-runners in North Long Beach — the truck comes to the car, and payment happens on the spot.
The process is the same everywhere we buy: describe the vehicle and its damage honestly, get a real offer priced from California damaged-vehicle market data, then schedule your free pickup. You’re paid at the same moment we collect the car and signed title — no fees deducted, no renegotiation at the curb.
Every kind of wrecked, totaled, and damaged vehicle in Long Beach
We’re the actual buyer — not a middleman
Most national “we buy any car” websites don’t buy your car at all. They collect your information, sell it as a lead, and hand you off to whichever third party pays them for it — and in Long Beach, that third party could be anyone. We’re the company that makes the offer, sends the truck, and puts the payment in your hand. One name, one transaction, no handoff.
Our team has spent over 30 years in the vehicle remarketing industry. We know what wrecked and totaled vehicles are actually worth in Southern and Northern California alike, and our offers hold up because of it.
Totaled in Long Beach? The California rules that matter
Total loss & salvage certificates
When an insurer totals a California vehicle, the title is typically converted to a salvage certificate through the DMV’s REG 488C process. We buy salvage certificate vehicles in Long Beach every week and know the paperwork cold.
Owner-retained salvage
Kept the car after your settlement? That’s owner-retained salvage — one of the most common purchases we make. You can sell it to us directly whenever you’re ready.
Release of liability
We walk you through the title signover and the DMV Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability (REG 138), so tickets and liability stop being your problem the day the car leaves Long Beach.
No insurance involved? Fine.
Denied claims, uninsured losses, and vehicles that were never claimed at all — we price the car on its own condition, not on what an insurer decided.
