What is your car worth? Start with the VIN or the plate. We ask the rest, then the number is in writing.
Don't Drive It? Sell It!
From Clearwater Beach to Countryside, we buy wrecked, totaled and non-running cars across north Pinellas, with a written offer and free pickup.
US-19 through Clearwater is one of the most crash-prone roads in the region, and the beach traffic adds its own summer spike on the causeways. Cars here sit in salt air year round, which does its slower work underneath.
We buy across Clearwater Beach, Island Estates, Countryside, Downtown Clearwater, Morningside, Largo, Dunedin and Safety Harbor, and we know the roads your adjuster is going to ask about: US-19, Gulf to Bay Boulevard (SR 60), the Courtney Campbell Causeway, the Memorial Causeway and McMullen-Booth Road.
US-19 and Gulf to Bay collision damage. Salt corrosion. Total losses the owner kept, and cars that have been parked long enough to stop running.
None of that disqualifies a car. Collision damage, a salvage title, a denied claim, no keys, not running, sitting since last season. We buy all of it, and the pickup is free either way.
Florida handles two of these differently from most states, and the order matters.
Take it off before pickup, then move it to another vehicle or hand it in at the Pinellas County tax collector. Do not cancel the insurance first. Florida can suspend your driver license if a plate is still active when the coverage lapses, which the state spells out on its license plates and registration page.
Most Florida titles have no paper document to sign. You either ask for a paper one or both parties finish the transfer in person at a tax collector office, and any lien has to clear first. FLHSMV explains the two routes under paper and electronic titles. Tell us which one you are on and we will work around it.
That is form HSMV 82050, and it is what ends your liability for the car. Skipping it is how a toll bill or a citation finds you months after the thing left your driveway. The state's own selling a vehicle page says the same thing in fewer words.
If your insurer totaled the car and you kept it, it is on a Florida salvage certificate of title, and we buy those constantly. On an uninsured car the state's threshold is repair costs of 80 percent or more of what an equivalent car is worth, which is set out in FLHSMV procedure TL-35. Our page on total loss rules puts it in plainer language.
Title and tag work in Florida runs through the county tax collector, acting for the state. For Clearwater that is the Pinellas County Tax Collector. Check the office hours before you drive over, because several counties take title work by appointment and stop accepting it before they close. If you are not sure which office covers you, FLHSMV keeps a county lookup.
We are not attorneys and we are not FLHSMV. For anything unusual we will point you at the right form rather than guess. The full Florida title guide is here.
Pickup is free everywhere we buy. Driveways, apartment and condo garages, storage facilities, body shops and tow yards are all routine.
Car at a tow yard running up storage? Say so when you call. That usually changes how fast we should move.
Yes. Pickup is free anywhere in Clearwater and across Pinellas County, including Clearwater Beach, Island Estates, Countryside, Downtown Clearwater and Morningside. Driveways, apartment and condo lots, body shops, storage lots and tow yards are all routine, and the car does not need to run. Most pickups happen within 24 to 48 hours of accepting the offer.
In Florida the plate stays with you, not the car. Take it off before pickup, then either transfer it to another vehicle or surrender it at the Pinellas County tax collector's office. Do not cancel your insurance until the plate is surrendered or transferred, because Florida can suspend your driver license if a plate is still active when coverage lapses. Then file a Notice of Sale (form HSMV 82050) within 30 days.
Yes, routinely. A salvage certificate of title is a fact about the paperwork, not a reason for a low offer, and we buy owner-retained total losses in Clearwater every week. We also buy vehicles on a certificate of destruction. Bring the title, or tell us where it stands, and we will price the car on what it is: year, make, model, trim, mileage and where the damage sits.
Florida Wrecked Cars is a TrackWala site. These are Google reviews of TrackWala, the company that buys the vehicles and pays you, quoted exactly as they were written. We have not edited a word, and there is no rating markup on this page.
These guys were so easy to deal with. They made me an offer, I accepted the offer, and they called me with pick up time. Then they showed up right on time with my check for the agreed on amount. Thank you so much Trackwala.
I had got a quote from a different company that Court horse me into signing the title and the wrong spot before they give me a price once I signed it they give me a price that was real low so I moved on to a different company and when they came to pick the vehicle up since I signed it there it blocked them from selling the car to me so I reach out to this company and he was able to coach me in the right spot to get the title fixed and my girlfriend entered in the wrong mileage which made the car worth more and he quoted the higher price and still honored the higher price even though the mileage was incorrect he's a good man good company I recommend them highly
I have had the best experience with trackwala Sam has been so awesome in preparing everything that was needed he was right on with everything and quick to respond and everything was just a really great experience I would recommend them to anybody
Trackwala was easy to work with and overall I had a good experience with them. I would recommend using this company when selling your junker car.
Two commitments, and one question we want you to ask every buyer you call, including us.
Show us a written quote from a junkyard or scrap yard on the same vehicle and we will beat it. Not match it. Beat it.
That is arithmetic rather than a stunt. A yard prices your car by what it weighs and which parts it can pull. We price it by what it is: year, make, model, trim, mileage and where the damage sits. On anything late-model those two numbers are not close.
Your offer is issued in writing before a truck is dispatched. It does not change when the driver arrives, it is not revised once the car is on the deck, and nothing is discovered on pickup day that costs you a few hundred.
The only thing that can move the number is finding the vehicle is materially different from how you described it. Describe it honestly and the number you accepted is the number you are handed.
Ask every buyer this before you accept
“Will this price change when the driver gets here?”
Ask us. Then ask everyone else you call, and listen closely to the answer. A buyer who will not commit to the number on the phone has told you what happens next. The most common complaint we hear from sellers is not that an offer was low. It is that the offer was lowered in the driveway, after the car was already loaded and saying no had become difficult.
The one exception, said up front. On a very old, high-mileage shell, scrap weight may genuinely be close to what the vehicle is worth, and there may be little room to beat. If that is your car, we will tell you on the phone rather than waste your afternoon. We would rather lose the sale than talk you into a bad one.
Free pickup everywhere, and the offer is the same number wherever the car is parked.
