What you need before pickup in Monroe County
Proof of sale and proof of ownership
You'll need a bill of sale and, in most cases, your car's title signed over to us. The bill of sale should include the year, make, model, and VIN of the vehicle, the sale date and price, and the printed names and signatures of both the buyer and seller.
Plates come off before insurance gets canceled
New York requires you to remove your plates and surrender them to a DMV office before you cancel your insurance — don't cancel coverage first. The plates themselves, along with the inspection sticker, should come off the car before pickup. The DMV issues an FS-6 receipt as proof of surrender, so hold onto it.
No title? Older vehicles work differently
Vehicles manufactured before 1973 aren't required to have a title in New York — a transferable registration takes its place. If your title is missing or the car is older, tell us and we'll walk you through what New York actually accepts instead.
Licensed and regulated in Monroe County
New York State regulates businesses that buy, tow, dismantle, or scrap junk vehicles — including dismantlers, scrap processors, itinerant vehicle collectors, and mobile crushers. That oversight exists to protect sellers from unlicensed operators who show up, lowball the price after the tow truck arrives, or skip the paperwork entirely.
We keep the process transparent from the first offer to pickup — the number we quote is the number we pay, with no surprise deductions once the truck shows up.
Monroe County wraps around Rochester and runs from the Lake Ontario shore down through the suburbs to the farm edges in the south. We buy cars in all of it — city neighborhoods where a dead vehicle is eating a parking spot you need, the ring of towns like Greece, Irondequoit, Brighton, Henrietta and Webster, and the quieter communities further out. Tell us the year, make, model and an honest description of the condition, take a free instant offer, and if it works for you we schedule a free tow. The car does not need to start and you do not have to move it.
Lake Ontario snow and what the salt does after it
Monroe County sits on the lake, and the snow that comes off the water is the reason cars here rust out earlier than the same car would in a drier part of the country. It is not the cold and it is not really the snow — it is the salt that follows both, spread on the expressways and the town roads through a long winter and washed into every seam underneath the car.
The damage happens where nobody looks. Rocker panels along the bottoms of the doors. The brake and fuel lines running the length of the underbody. Exhaust hangers. The subframe and mounting points that hold the suspension to the body. Surface rust on a fender is a cosmetic problem; rust through a brake line or a structural mount is the end of the vehicle's usable life, and it is usually an inspection that delivers the news.
Suburban commuting compounds it. Short trips in cold weather never get things dry, and stop-and-go mileage on the expressway ring wears brakes and drivetrains hard. Rust does not disqualify anything here — tell us how bad it is and we will still make an offer.
Towing in the city and out through the towns
Our trucks route in off I-490 and I-390, with I-590 and Route 104 covering the north and east sides of the county. That combination reaches effectively everywhere — the city streets, the inner suburbs, the lakeshore neighborhoods, and the towns out toward the county line where the nearest scrapyard is not close.
Towing is free and it is built into your offer. It is never billed back to you afterward. Same-day pickup is often possible when the offer is scheduled by early afternoon, but the exact window depends on where our trucks already are that day, so we confirm a real time with you rather than promise an hour up front. If the car is in a driveway behind another vehicle, in an alley, or in an apartment lot with tight access, mention it when you call.
Plates, paperwork, and getting paid
New York requires you to remove your plates before the car changes hands and surrender them at any DMV office, including the ones here in Monroe County. Keep the FS-6 receipt the DMV gives you — that is your proof the plates are no longer your responsibility, which matters if the car is ticketed or towed after it leaves you.
From there it is simple. We handle the ownership paperwork, load the car onto the flatbed, and pay you at pickup — no mailed check, no return trip. Start with a free instant offer and find out what it is worth today.
