Home › Sell or trade your car

What's your car worth? Start here.

Tell us about your vehicle — about two minutes — and during store hours we aim to have an estimated appraisal back to you within the hour. Trade it toward something on our lot, or sell it to us outright. We buy cars either way; no purchase required.

The estimate is based on the details you send and real market data. The firm number comes after we see the vehicle — that's the honest way to do it, and it protects you from a lowball sight-unseen offer as much as it protects us.

We buy outright — no purchase required One price, no pressure Secure payment within 2 business days We buy as-is — no prep needed

How it works

1. Two minutes, online

Year, make, model, kilometres and an honest read on condition. The more accurate you are, the tighter the estimate.

2. An estimate within the hour

During store hours we aim to call, text or email your estimated appraisal within the hour, based on real market data.

3. See it, firm it up, get paid

Bring the car by 1037 Belfast Rd and we'll confirm the number in person. One price, no pressure — and if you sell, payment is secure within 2 business days.

Straight answers

Do I have to buy a car from you?

No. We buy cars outright — no purchase required. If you do want to trade toward one of ours, the value goes straight against it.

Is the online estimate the final offer?

It's an estimate based on what you told us. The firm number comes after we see the vehicle in person — that protects both of us. If the car matches your description, expect the number to hold up.

Does my car need to be cleaned up or repaired first?

No — we buy as-is, no prep needed. Just tell us honestly about anything not working; surprises at the in-person look are the main reason estimates change.

Still owe money on it?

Tell us in the notes field. In many cases we can still work with it — we'll run the numbers and explain your options plainly.

Prefer to just talk it through?

Call us at 613-680-4171 — Mon–Thu 9–6, Fri 9–5, Sat 9:30–5. No scripts, no pressure.
