Junk Car Removal for Cars That Won’t Start or Run
A junk car is any vehicle that costs more to keep than it’s worth. The engine might be seized, the transmission might have quit, or a mechanic’s estimate came back higher than the car’s value. It might have been parked so long the battery, tires and brakes have all given up.
We buy those cars as they are. You don’t need to get it running, pump up the tires or clean it out beyond your own belongings. Tell us what’s wrong, and we price the car on what it is today.
This page covers the harder removals. For a general overview, see our scrap car removal in Maple Ridge service.
Non Running Car Pickup: No Keys, Flat Tires, Locked Steering
A car that won’t start is the most common junk car removal we do. What matters for pickup is how the car moves, not why it stopped. When you call, tell us:
Does it roll?
Seized brakes or a car left in park make loading slower, so we plan for it.
Are there keys?
No keys is fine, but a locked steering column changes how we load it.
Are the tires holding air?
Flat or missing wheels are workable if we know before we arrive.
Where is it parked?
Driveway, garage, behind the house, a gravel lot or an underground stall.
With that, we send a flatbed set up for the job, not a guess.
Accident Damaged and Written Off Car Removal
Collision damage doesn’t stop a sale. We recently picked up a crash damaged Ram 3500 in Maple Ridge with the hood and grille crumpled and the frame exposed. It was loaded onto the flatbed the same day we made the offer.
Cars written off after a crash, cars with airbags deployed and cars with frame damage all qualify. The offer reflects what survived: the vehicle’s weight, the parts still in good shape, and whether it can still be rolled onto the truck. If the car is still registered to you, the sale works like any other.
Old and Unwanted Car Removal From Driveways, Acreages and Strata Lots
Some cars don’t break down suddenly; they just stop being driven. An old car removal usually starts with a strata notice, a move, or simply wanting the space back. Whether the car sits on an acreage in Whonnock, in a townhouse lot in Haney or in a garage in Silver Valley, the process is the same.
One example is an old Chevrolet Cavalier removed from a Maple Ridge property, valued on the spot before it was hauled away. Moss, rust and dead batteries don’t put us off.
Abandoned Car Removal: What We Can and Can’t Take
Cars we can take
We can buy an abandoned or unwanted car when the registered owner, or someone with legal authority to act for them, signs the sale.
- A parent’s car left behind after a move
- A car inherited through an estate
- Your own car that’s been sitting for years
Cars we can’t take
We can’t take a car left on your property by someone else without the owner’s signature. In that case, start with the City of Maple Ridge bylaw office or the police.
Our BC scrap car paperwork guide explains estates, executors and cars not in your name.
Junk Trucks, Vans, SUVs and Larger Vehicles
Junk car removal isn’t limited to sedans. We buy pickup trucks, cargo vans, minivans, SUVs and larger vehicles, like the retired shuttle bus our team bought. Bigger vehicles usually carry more weight, which helps the offer.
For forklifts, excavators and other machinery, see heavy equipment removal instead.
How Our Junk Car Removal Works
Three steps from your first call to an empty driveway.
Describe the car and the spot
Call 236 864 7343 or use the form at the top of this page. Include what’s broken and how the truck gets to it.
Accept the quote
You get one number. If the car matches what you told us, that’s what you’re paid.
We load it and you’re paid
The driver confirms the VIN, you sign the transfer form, you’re paid cash, and the car leaves on the flatbed.
Is My Junk Car Worth Anything?
Almost always, yes. Even a car that will never run again has value in its steel and in parts that still work. The price depends on the car’s weight, today’s scrap metal market, and what’s still on it. Read how much your scrap car is worth for the details.
If the car still drives, you may get more by selling it as a used car. Our cash for cars page explains that option, and we’ll tell you honestly which way pays better. Still deciding whether to keep it? Read scrap or keep your car.
Before Your Junk Car Pickup
- Take out personal items from the glovebox, console, trunk and under the seats.
- Remove your licence plates; in BC they stay with you, not the car.
- Have the registration and your photo ID ready for the transfer form.
- Leave the keys in an agreed spot if you have them.
- Clear a path to the car if you can, or tell us what’s in the way.

Can you remove a junk car from behind a house, a field or underground parking?
Usually, yes. Tell us where the car sits, how wide the gate or driveway is, and the clearance if it’s in an underground parkade. Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group then plans the pickup around that access in Maple Ridge, whether it’s behind a house on an acreage in Whonnock or in a strata stall in Haney. Photos of the spot and the way in help us bring the right truck.
Do you take junk cars with no wheels or flat tires?
Yes, in most cases. A car on flat tires, on blocks or missing wheels can still be loaded, but the driver needs to know before arriving. When you call Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group, mention any missing wheels, seized brakes or a locked steering column, and we’ll confirm how the pickup in Maple Ridge will work. Missing wheels can lower the offer, and we tell you that up front.
My car was written off after an accident. Can I still sell it to you?
Yes. Cars written off after a collision are a regular part of our junk car removal work in Maple Ridge. Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group prices the car on what’s left: its weight, the parts that survived and whether it can still roll. If the car is still registered to you, we complete the transfer form with you at pickup like any other sale.
Can you remove an abandoned car that isn’t mine?
We can only buy a car from its registered owner or someone with legal authority to sign for it. If a stranger’s car has been left on your Maple Ridge property, contact the City of Maple Ridge bylaw office or the police first rather than calling us. Once the owner, or someone legally acting for them, can sign the transfer form, Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group can quote it and remove it.
How soon can you remove my junk car?
Call early in the day and we’ll give you the soonest pickup time we have. Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group works 7 am to 11 pm every day across Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and Mission, so you can call evenings and weekends. Timing depends on where the car is and how easy it is to reach, so we confirm the slot when you book.
What should I take out of the car before pickup?
Empty the glovebox, centre console, trunk and the spaces under the seats, and take any garage remote, child seat or parking pass. Remove your licence plates, because they stay with you and never go with the car. Keep the registration handy for the transfer form. Pacific Scrap Car Removal Group can’t return items once the car has left Maple Ridge, so check twice.
