I contacted Clunker Junker from my office and when got home the car was picked up and gone and I had a check in my hand for the exact amount I was quoted. Great service, far and better than the $100. dollars companies offering to haul away anything, no matter what condition the car is in...Also, be honest about whether or not the car runs and drives because in my case they did not send a tow truck but a car hauler. I I had told them it was running and if it wasn't they would have wasted their time and mine. I would recommend... read more

Driver was 3 hours late to pick up and though the Clunker Junker said that once an offer was accepted it was guaranteed, the driver refused to pay the agreed amount. Called Clunker Junker to complain and was assured that the company had agreed to pay the original quoted amount, but the driver still refused. I did not accept the very low ball offer and will be using another company. 

Business response:

Hello, I'm very sorry to hear you feel cheated! Unfortunately your review does not tell the full story. First and foremost, the catalytic converter on this vehicle is not original. I know it's hard for the average person to know this, and it's frustrating to be told, but we do have photographic evidence from the buyer that this vehicle does not have the OEM original catalytic converter. Our website has multiple disclaimers, including on every single page of our website, that if the converter is not original (or missing), the... read more

A very easy and positive experience. My vehicle was picked up and paid for with cash within 36 hours of my first contact through their online survey. As they deal with 3rd party towing firms to provide payment I was apprehensive but they held to their word and were courteous and professional during the pickup process. My advice to you is to be sure to provide honest answers to their survey questions and you should be fine. Im very satisfied so heres a well deserved 5 stars. 

Business response:

Thank you so much for the positive feedback! You are absolutely correct, many of our upset customers either do not read or pay attention to what they are doing during submission (e.g, catalytic converters), or are outright dishonest about it.We appreciate your business!

I want to start by saying I'm very disappointed with the offer I was given vs what I received. I am not sure weather this is the fault of clunkerjunker.com or the pickup company. anyway, I had an offer for $590 for my car, but when the company showed up they offered $200. very very disappointing. $450 would have been reasonable for a $590 offer but after offering less the 50% of the original offer was extremely disappointing. to sum it all, its very disappointing to get 34% of what you were told online. 

Business response:

Hello, I'm sorry you had trouble with your local buyer! I do wish you had reached out to us for help before going straight to the BBB. The only time we allow offer changes is if the catalytic converter is missing or has been replaced. This vehicle was sold through a third party provider (Peddle), so I'm unable to confirm that was the exact reason, but I will be reaching out to you directly to get clarification. If the vehicle has an original catalytic converter, we should be able to get you the remainder of your money. Thank... read more

I've had many experiences with salvage car buyers in the past most every time the price or something changed at the end of the deal which was majorly frustrating. This company surpassed my expectations easily as it was actually as advertised the smoothest exchange of a vehicle I've had just follow the instructions and Bam it was spot on!! I'd highly recommend this conoany and if im in need of their service again ill surely use then without a doubt. Any questions ask *** she provided great customer service!! 

Business response:

Thank you! We certainly do everything we can to not have to change offers. I will pass this on to *** as well!

Clunker Junker in the Tampa area was super fast and easy. Quick quote, they called me within 15 minutes of online quote, communicated multiple times, driver on time and organized. I would use the them again and recommend them.
