Sell a Junk, Damaged, or Non-Running Car in Memphis
Memphis sits where three states meet, and the Mid-South’s geography shapes the cars that end up here. The Mississippi River and the storms that sweep the Delta leave roads underwater on a regular basis — the April 2025 storms closed stretches of I-40 right through the city — and the Deep South heat and humidity grind away at engines, batteries, and cooling systems through long summers. Across West Tennessee, eastern Arkansas, and northern Mississippi, when a vehicle has had enough, We Buy Any Car comes to collect it. Pickup is free throughout the tri-state area, with a check handed over on the spot.

Tennessee Dropped Emissions Testing — Here’s What That Means
For the Tennessee side of the Memphis metro, there’s no longer an emissions test to worry about — the state ended the program in 2022, and Tennessee has no safety inspection requirement either. Arkansas and Mississippi don’t require emissions testing or safety inspections to sell a vehicle, so wherever in the tri-state area your car is registered, there’s no testing hurdle in your way. Start your free valuation online and we’ll take it from there.
Free Tri-State Collection
There’s no charge to collect your car or tow it, and that holds true across all three states the Memphis metro touches. the city, the Arkansas side, and the Mississippi suburbs alike, and you’re paid by check as soon as we take ownership of the vehicle.
Proof of Ownership
To finalize the sale you’ll need to show you own the vehicle — usually that’s your signed Tennessee Certificate of Title. Tennessee doesn’t require the title to be notarized for a private sale.
