Take the hassle out of selling your unwanted vehicle! Putting it on MarketPlace and 50 people ask is this still available, 5 are supposed to show up and never have the courtesy to tell you they wont be there, the ones do show up want to low ball you! Problem solved! Call River Valley Recycling, let us know year, make, and model, and a few other questions, we will give you a price, and set up a time to pick up the vehicle! Not a person to call on the phone? That is ok, go to River Valley Recycling’s website and fill out a Sell Us Your Junk Car or Truck form. One of our buyers will contact you and ask a few questions and make you an offer on your vehicle.
