I called every possible buyer for my vehicle for weeks and when I reached Junk Car Medics my offer was doubled! A much more fair assessment of what I was giving up. And it couldnt have helped more at the time I needed it most! The driver was very professional and a woman! How cool! I would call her anytime I ever needed a tow service . I’ll bet she could out do any man in the industry. She did everything by the book and had some awesome stories to tell. Getting rid of my Mercedes Benz for junk had my stomach turning until she made the experience something I will tell my grandchildren! Thank you so much! You really outdid the competitors and I will keep you on my speed dial and refer you to anyone I ever get a hint needs this service. I can’t brag enough about my experience!
