Holding on to Old Clunkers in Los Angeles Is Just Not Worth It!
As vehicles age, you can expect more frequent maintenance and breakdowns, along with more expenses. You can also expect lower fuel efficiency compared to newer models and a lack of the newest safety features. In addition to this, you can expect your junk car to continue depreciating over time.
In addition to this, Los Angeles County is often struck by disasters that can leave you with damaged vehicles. Like the burned cars after the 2018 Woolsey Fire and the damaged vehicles after the mudslides in Studio City and Baldwin Hills. If tragedy strikes and ruins your vehicles, you have options.

Frequently Asked Questions About Getting Cash for Junk Cars in Los Angeles
Do I need to go to the DMV to sell my car in Los Angeles?
There are more than 25 DMV offices in Los Angeles County, and if you live here you already know every one of them has a long line. There’s no way around it: all vehicle transactions in LA have to go through the DMV.
To sell your junk car in Los Angeles, you will need to take the signed title to an LA DMV office to submit an ownership transfer application. However, knowing there’s a payday at the end of the line once you get rid of your junked vehicle will make it well worth the time and effort.
Can I sell a car in Los Angeles without smog?
You can’t do anything in Los Angeles without smog, and that includes breathing and selling your car. With a few exceptions, you will need a smog certificate to sell your car in LA. One of those is that if your car is fewer than four years old, the vehicle’s new owner will be responsible for the smog transfer fee.
If you want to sell your old car in LA, you will need to provide a current smog certificate to the new buyer. But if you are selling your junk car to be disassembled or demolished, you’ll be exempt from the smog inspection.
Do you need a junk slip to junk a car in Los Angeles?
According to the Los Angeles DMV, the requirements for disposing of a junk vehicle aren’t any different from those for registering or transferring ownership of any other car. You will need a Certificate of Title to prove that you own the vehicle if you want to transfer ownership to a salvage or junk yard.
When you choose Family Car Buyers to buy your junk car, we’ll handle the documentation for you – including transferring the Certificate of Title. You can count on us to make sure your transfer is handled correctly so you will no longer be legally responsible for that old clunker. You will finally be able to wash your hands of it once and for all!
What should I know about California’s abandoned vehicle abatement and public nuisance rules?
The Abandoned Vehicle Abatement (AVA) Program, run by the California Highway Patrol (CHP), intends to remove abandoned vehicles from public or private property (with a few exceptions) that are a public nuisance and a health or safety threat. The program operates in thirty-seven counties in California, but more are currently applying.
A public nuisance in the eyes of CHP is any abandoned, damaged, or dismantled vehicle that reduces the value of a private property, fosters blight and desolation, inspires theft, poses a fire risk, is an attractive nuisance that risks children’s health and safety, harbors pests, or endangers public welfare.
If you’re from Los Angeles, you have even worse luck. Junk cars cannot be kept on private property in Los Angeles unless you store them inside a structure (garage). You could pay hefty fines for a junk car that is visible from the roadway. If you keep paying fines but don’t do anything about the pile of trash in your yard, you can be subject to legal action.
So contact us now, as we buy your junk car for a good price and help you avoid unnecessary problems with your neighbors or the authorities regarding your heap of useless metal!
