The car that’s been parked “for now” for years

Andover’s larger residential lots give people room — room for a shop, a boat and, very often, a second or third vehicle that’s been parked for years. It was supposed to be temporary. Then a season turned into a few years, and now the car has flat tires, a dead battery and a mouse nest under the hood.

Here’s the honest truth about those vehicles: they rarely get more valuable while they sit. Batteries die, seals dry out, brake lines rust and tires rot. If you’re not going to restore it, selling it now usually gets you more than selling it later. And you get that corner of the yard back.

“But I might fix it someday”

If you genuinely plan to, keep it. But if “someday” has come and gone a few times, it’s worth getting a free offer just to know what the vehicle is worth today. There’s no obligation — you can decide after you see the number.

How pickup works in Andover

We pick up across Andover’s 55304 ZIP code. Our trucks typically reach you by way of US-10 or MN-65, then Hanson Boulevard or Bunker Lake Boulevard. Same-day pickup is often available.

Long-parked vehicles sometimes need a little extra care to load. That’s normal and we’re set up for it. Tell us:

• Whether the tires hold air or are completely flat
• If the vehicle is on grass, gravel or pavement
• Whether there’s anything blocking it, like a trailer or a fence
• If you have the keys (we can still buy it if you don’t)

When the driver arrives and confirms the vehicle, you sign the title, you’re paid on the spot, and then we load it. Towing is free.

Getting ready for pickup day

A little preparation makes the pickup quick. Before our driver arrives:

• Go through the car. Check the glove box, under the seats and the trunk. Long-parked cars often hide old paperwork, tools and keepsakes.
• Grab the garage door opener and any toll transponder.
• Find the title. Look in files, safes and that drawer where important papers end up.
• Clear a path if a trailer, mower or snowbank is in the way.
• Keep the insurance active until the sale, then cancel it.

You don’t need to wash it, fix it, inflate the tires or charge the battery. We buy it the way it sits. Our checklist for before junk car pickup has a few more tips.

Minnesota paperwork for a long-parked vehicle

Every owner listed on the title signs it. Model year 2011 and newer vehicles need an odometer reading on the transfer. Report the sale to Minnesota DVS within 10 days, online or at a deputy registrar office. Standard plates generally stay with the vehicle — personalized plates can usually be kept, but confirm with DVS. Cancel any insurance still on it.

If the title disappeared somewhere in the garage years ago, you can apply for a duplicate through DVS or a deputy registrar. Call (763) 226-3586 and we’ll go over what we’d need for your vehicle.

Selling a project car? Tell us which parts are on it and which were removed or are sitting in boxes in the garage. If the parts go with the vehicle, mention them when you ask for an offer, since complete vehicles are generally worth more.
