Selling a car from a Minnetonka driveway
Minnetonka is a wooded, residential suburb, and plenty of homes sit back from the road on longer driveways. That’s often where an extra vehicle ends up: parked at the top of the drive, tucked beside the garage or under a cover in the side yard, waiting for a decision that never quite gets made.
Long driveways aren’t a problem for us. When you book, just tell us:
- Roughly how far the car is from the street
- Whether the driveway is paved, gravel or steep
- If there are low branches, tight turns or a narrow spot between trees
- Whether the car rolls freely or the wheels are locked
With that information, our driver can bring the right truck and plan how to get the vehicle out without damaging your lawn or landscaping. In winter, it helps to have the drive plowed before pickup day.
What vehicles do Minnetonka owners sell to us?
We see a wide range in Minnetonka. Some are newer vehicles with expensive problems: a luxury SUV with a failing transmission, a car with an engine warning that turned out to be serious, or a lease-return-age vehicle with damage the owner doesn’t want to fix. Others are older second or third cars, such as a teen’s first car, a weekend truck, or a sedan that belonged to a parent.
We buy all of them, including:
- Cars and SUVs with major transmission problems or blown engines
- Hail-damaged, flood-damaged or wrecked vehicles
- High-mileage commuters that spent years on I-494, I-394 and US-169
- Trucks, vans and motorcycles that no longer get used
- Vehicles with a salvage or rebuilt title
Why let a spare vehicle keep sitting?
It’s easy to keep a car “just in case.” But a vehicle that sits outdoors in Minnesota loses value every season. Batteries die in the cold, tires go flat, mice move into the cabin and air filter, and road salt left on the underside keeps working on the metal. Insurance and registration costs add up too, even if the car never moves.
Selling sooner usually means a better offer and one less thing to think about. It also frees up the driveway and garage space for the vehicles you actually use.
How much will you offer?
We don’t give a one-size-fits-all number, because a running SUV and a rusted-out sedan aren’t worth the same. We look at the year, make, model, mileage, overall condition, any mechanical problems and the vehicle’s weight. Demand for reusable parts matters too, and so does whether the catalytic converter is still on the car.

How pickup works in Minnetonka
We cover all three Minnetonka ZIP codes: 55305, 55343 and 55345. Between I-494, MN-7, US-169 and I-394, our drivers can reach any neighborhood without much trouble, from the lake areas to the streets near Hopkins.
The steps are simple. Call (763) 226-3586 or use the form, get your offer, then pick a pickup window. Same-day pickup is often available in the Twin Cities metro. When the driver arrives, they’ll confirm the vehicle and the title, you’ll sign, you’re paid on the spot, and the vehicle is loaded and on its way.
A quick note on Minnesota title rules
Every owner listed on the Minnesota title needs to sign. If there’s a loan, the lien has to be released before the transfer, and we can often pay the lender directly. Vehicles from model year 2011 on need an odometer disclosure as part of the transfer.
After pickup, report the sale to DVS within 10 days. Standard plates usually stay with the car, while personalized plates can usually be kept; confirm with DVS. Then call your insurance company and cancel coverage on the vehicle.

Frequently asked questions
Can your tow truck get up my long Minnetonka driveway?
In most cases, yes. Tell us about the length, surface and slope of your driveway, plus any tight spots or low branches. That lets the driver choose the right truck and approach before arriving.
Do you buy newer cars with expensive repair problems?
Yes. We regularly buy newer cars and SUVs with failed engines, transmissions or major body damage. Your offer reflects what the vehicle is worth as it sits, so you don’t have to pay for the repair first.
Is same-day pickup available in Minnetonka?
Often, yes. Same-day pickup is frequently available in the Twin Cities metro, including Minnetonka. The earlier in the day you call, the better your chances.
What if the car has been parked on my property for years?
That’s common, and it’s not a problem. A car that has sat a long time may have flat tires, a dead battery or seized brakes. Let us know, and we’ll bring equipment that can handle it.
