We Buy Used Cars in Edmonton

How to Get the Best Offer for a Used Car
Know your kilometres and trim.
A Limited or Platinum trim is worth more than a base model.
Mention recent work.
New tires, brakes, a timing belt or a battery all add value.
Be upfront about issues.
Warning lights, leaks or noises. It keeps the offer from changing on pickup.
Have service records if you've kept them.
Clear the lien.
If there's still a loan, get a payout letter from your lender.
Protecting Yourself When You Sell
Private sales in Edmonton come with real scam risks: fake e-transfer screenshots, cheques that bounce, and "buyers" who want to drive off before paying. When you sell to us, the payment lands before the car leaves, and you get a signed bill of sale that includes the VIN, price, date and both signatures, which is what Alberta requires. Keep a copy, remove your plates, and cancel or transfer your insurance the same day.
Used Car FAQs
Do you inspect the car before paying?+
Yes, briefly. We check that it matches your description: it starts, the kilometres are right and there's no major damage we didn't know about.
Can I sell a car that still has a loan?+
Yes, once the lien is cleared. In some cases we can pay the lender directly and pay you the rest. Call to discuss.
Will you buy my car if I'm still making payments on a lease?+
Leased cars belong to the leasing company. Ask them for a buyout price first.
