After a total-loss decision

Sell a totaled car in Kansas City.

When repairs exceed what a vehicle is worth, an as-is offer can help you compare the next step after the insurance and ownership questions are resolved.

The customer problem

When keeping the vehicle stops making sense

A total-loss vehicle may be at a home, tow yard, body shop or storage facility while the owner decides what happens next. Damage, insurance paperwork, a lien and storage charges can make the process confusing.

Storage costs or access restrictions can change quickly. Owners should first understand the insurer’s decision, lien status and who currently has authority over the vehicle.

Service-specific questions

Totaled Cars: frequently asked questions

Can I sell a car after the insurance company totals it?

It depends on who owns the vehicle after the claim, lien status and title handling. Confirm those facts with the insurer or lienholder before agreeing to a sale.

Do I have to repair a totaled car first?

No. We evaluate it in its current condition.

Can you pick it up from a tow yard?

Potentially, but the owner must arrange lawful release and address any facility requirements or charges.

What photos are most helpful?

Send all four sides, each damaged area, wheels, interior, deployed airbags, engine bay if accessible and any missing parts.

What if there is still a loan on the vehicle?

The lienholder may control the title or transfer. Resolve the lien before pickup planning.

Is a salvage title acceptable?

Title requirements depend on the specific vehicle and current documentation. Share the exact title status for review.

Business confirmation required: Exact accepted title brands and insurer-release situations must be confirmed vehicle by vehicle.
