Storm-damaged or flooded in Nashville? Your car is still worth a quote.
Don’t write off your old junk car just yet.
Flash floods along the Cumberland River and spring tornadoes in neighborhoods like East Nashville, Donelson, and Madison can leave a car heavily damaged. The good news? Most still have value. Hail damage is often cosmetic, and even flooded cars keep their metal weight and parts like wheels, panels, and the catalytic converter.

Our services include
Cash for junk cars

Junk car removal
Say yes to an offer, and we’ll arrange collection within 24 – 72 hours. Our collectors are familiar with Middle Tennessee’s hills, so steep driveways and narrow streets are no obstacle. Selling more than one junk car? We’ll schedule as many pickups as you need.
Finding salvage buyers
Cars with less damage or reusable parts can be worth more than scrap. We’ll match you with reputable salvage buyers around Nashville who pay fair prices for vehicles like yours, so you can get a better-than-junk price without the need to negotiate or compare multiple quotes.
Parts and repairs
Functioning parts like engines, transmissions, alternators, wheels, and body panels can be salvaged and reused to get other vehicles back on the road. It’s more eco-friendly than crushing the whole vehicle and gets you more cash. That’s why we always try to find a salvage buyer before we consider scrap.

Get ready for pickup in Nashville
Before the driver arrives, make sure you:
- Find your keys. Have every key and fob ready to hand over.
- Clear out the car. Check the glovebox, trunk, under the seats, and the sun visors. Remove garage door openers and parking permits, too.
- Wipe your personal data. If applicable to your vehicle, unpair your phone, clear saved addresses from the navigation, and remove the car from any connected-car app.
- Sort out any loan. If there’s a lien on the title, it must be released before we can buy the car. Your lender will send a lien release once the loan is paid off.
- Sign the title. If you need to supply a title, make sure you sign as the seller exactly as your name appears on the front. Tennessee titles don’t need to be notarized. If the title lists two owners joined by “and,” both must sign.
Once the car is gone, remember to cancel your insurance and keep hold of your junking confirmation to protect you against any future liability.
FAQs
Should I sell my car for junk, or as salvage?
It depends on your car’s condition. Junkyards pay by weight, so scrapping suits cars with little worth saving, like fire or flood-damaged, badly rusted, or worn-out vehicles. Salvage buyers pay for resellable parts, so a car damaged in one area but solid elsewhere, such as a rear-ended car with a good engine, usually earns more as salvage. A running engine, working transmission, original catalytic converter, and intact panels and lights all raise your offer. Wheels Away always looks for a salvage buyer first and only suggests scrap when it pays you more.
Can I junk without a title in Nashville?
Vehicles 12 years old or older can be junked without a title, as long as you can show proof of ownership. For cars under 12 years old, a title is required. If yours is missing, you can request a replacement or duplicate using Form RV-F1315201.
Do I need an emissions test to junk in Nashville?
No. Davidson County stopped emissions testing in 2022, and Tennessee has no safety inspection either, so nothing needs to be passed or certified before you sell. Just have your photo ID and title (or proof of ownership) ready for pickup.
I’m moving away from Fort Campbell or Nashville. How quickly can you collect my car?
Usually within 24–72 hours of accepting your offer. Get a quote in 2 minutes, then pick a pickup time that works around your move, whether you’re off-post in Clarksville or anywhere in the Nashville area. You’ll be paid on collection, so the cash is in hand before you go. Summer is peak moving season, so if you know your date, book early and we’ll lock in your slot.
I’m listed as a co-owner on the car title. Can I still junk the car?
In Tennessee, titles listing owners with “and” require signatures from everyone to approve junking. If the names are connected with “and/or” or “or,” only a single signature is needed. Need help navigating the process? The Wheels Away team is ready to assist.
Who will pick up my car?
We’ll send a licensed removal expert to collect your car within 24 – 72 hours. Remember to clear any personal items out of your vehicle and have your photo ID, signed title, or alternative proof of ownership (if applicable) ready for collection.
Do I need to be at home when the vehicle is collected?
Not always. If you can’t be there, you can ask someone you trust to hand over the vehicle instead. Give them the keys and your paperwork, including the signed title or proof of ownership and a copy of your photo ID. We’ll confirm the details with you before the driver arrives.
Is my car too good to junk?
Not at all. If your car is worth more than its scrap value, we’ll find a salvage buyer who’ll pay for its usable parts, like a running engine, a working transmission, or undamaged panels. Even non-runners and accident-damaged cars can earn a strong offer, and we’ll tow them away for free.
Does my car need its catalytic converter to be junked?
No. We’ll still buy your car if the catalytic converter is missing, stolen, or has been replaced. It does affect your offer, though. Original converters contain precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium, so they’re one of the most valuable parts on a junk car. If yours is missing or aftermarket, tell us when you get your quote so your offer is accurate and doesn’t change at pickup.
How do I get paid?
You’ll get paid on collection. Payments are typically made electronically, but if you’d prefer cash or check, just let us know in advance.
