Why Sell to Chinook Auto Sales?
Selling your car privately means dealing with strangers, managing multiple test drives, handling negotiations, and navigating paperwork. Selling to Chinook Auto Sales eliminates all of that. We offer a professional, safe, and efficient selling experience. Our appraisals are based on real market data, and we pay promptly. You skip the weeks of waiting and dealing with tire-kickers.
What We Buy
We purchase cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, ATVs, boats, and other vehicles. Domestic or import, high mileage or low, we'll make an offer. We're always looking for clean, well-maintained vehicles to add to our inventory. Even if your vehicle has some wear and tear, don't assume it won't qualify—bring it in and let us take a look.
The Appraisal Process
Our appraisal process is thorough but quick. We inspect the vehicle's exterior, interior, mechanical systems, and review its history report. We then compare your vehicle to current market data to determine a fair offer. The entire process typically takes 30-45 minutes, and you'll receive a written offer on the spot. No pressure, no obligation.
Getting Paid
If you accept our offer, payment is fast. We handle all the necessary paperwork including the bill of sale and registration transfer. Payment is typically issued the same day via certified cheque or electronic transfer. If there's a lien on your vehicle, we can coordinate the payout with your lender as part of the transaction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to fix my car before selling?
No. We buy vehicles in all conditions. While a well-maintained vehicle may command a higher offer, you don't need to invest in repairs before selling to us.
What if I still owe money on my car?
We can handle vehicles with existing liens. We'll coordinate the lien payout as part of the transaction, and you'll receive the difference between our offer and the outstanding balance.
