What you need before pickup in Schoharie 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 Schoharie 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.
Schoharie County is farm and valley country, with Cobleskill and Richmondville along the I-88 side, the villages of Schoharie and Middleburgh down in the creek valley, and hill towns spread out in every direction from there. A car that has stopped being worth fixing tends to stay put here, because hauling it anywhere costs more than most people want to spend. That is the part we take off your hands. Tell us the year, make, model and honest condition, take a free instant offer, and if it works we tow it for free — no start required.
Flood water, hill roads, and long winters
The creek that runs through the middle of this county has come up over its banks before, and anyone who has lived through it knows what it does to a vehicle. A flooded car is usually finished even when it dries out and runs: water gets into the wiring harness, the control modules and the seat frames, and the corrosion keeps spreading long after the carpet feels dry. We buy flood cars — just tell us plainly, so the offer reflects the real condition.
Short of that, it is the ordinary rural wear. Hilly two-lane roads that work brakes and transmissions, gravel and dirt lanes that sandblast everything under the floor, real distances between towns that pile mileage on quickly, and a long winter of road salt that goes after brake lines, rocker panels and suspension mounts. Most cars here retire when the underbody will no longer take a repair, not when the engine quits.
Whatever happened to yours, describe it honestly and you will still get an offer.
Free towing up and down the valley
I-88 crosses the county and Route 7 runs alongside it through Cobleskill and Richmondville, while Route 30 follows the valley through Middleburgh and Schoharie. Route 20 catches the northern towns, and Route 145 and Route 10 reach a lot of what is left. Off those, we work from directions as often as addresses — farm lanes, long driveways and cars parked well back from the road are all routine.
Towing is free and it is already inside the offer you accept. It is never billed to you afterward and never taken off the total at pickup. Same-day removal is often possible when a car is scheduled early, but out here the timing depends on where our trucks already are, so we confirm a genuine window with you instead of promising an hour.
Plates, paperwork, and getting paid
New York requires you to pull the plates before the car changes hands and surrender them at any DMV office — the county's office is fine, and so is any other in the state. Keep the FS-6 receipt they give you. It proves the plates are no longer your responsibility if the vehicle is ever ticketed or towed after it leaves your property.
We do the rest: ownership paperwork, loading the car onto the flatbed, and paying you at pickup rather than mailing anything. Whether it is a truck that rusted out from underneath, a car the water got into, or something that has been sitting at the edge of a field for years, start with a free instant offer and find out what it is worth today.
Frequently Asked About Schoharie County

How do your trucks reach rural Schoharie Valley addresses?
We route off I-88 and the county roads connecting Cobleskill to the surrounding valley towns, so a rural address doesn't slow things down much.
