They will simply ask you a few questions about the\nvehicle regarding the age, make, model, and condition, and from there, give you\na rough estimate. If you prefer a more precise estimate, you can bring your\nvehicle in and have it evaluated in person. However, if the company does not\noffer free pickup, you will have to pay to have it towed. In the case that the\ncompany does offer free pickup, and you choose not to accept their offer, you\nwill have to reimburse them for the towing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare Your Vehicle<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>After you accept an offer, you will need to prove your ownership.
