Polk County, FL
In Lake Hamilton with a car or truck you're done with? Tell us what's wrong with it and we'll make a cash offer, including a free tow.
Lake Hamilton is older than most people driving through on US 27 would guess. The town's own history puts its start in 1913, when William Hosmer built the first house and a store. The Atlantic Coast Line railroad finished a station here in April 1914, a post office followed that October, and on November 6, 1924 the town was incorporated, with its charter recognized in 1925. Citrus and fishing kept it going for decades, and a lot of that old grove country is still around the edges of town. Middle Lake Hamilton and Little Lake Hamilton sit close by as well.
Places with that kind of history tend to collect vehicles. We hear about pickups that hauled fruit and then got parked behind a barn, family sedans that have sat by the lake since the last owner passed, and work vans with engines that quit years ago. Sandy ground makes a stuck car harder to move, and that's our job, not yours. Tell us where it's sitting and roughly how long it's been there. A car that has been there since before the last hurricane is not unusual to us.
We buy scrap, wrecked and non-running cars, pickups, work vans and SUVs anywhere in Lake Hamilton, from the lakefront homes to the rural lots off State Road 17.
An old half-ton with a rusted bed and no registration is still worth something as scrap metal and parts. Tell us the year and what's missing. Pickups that haven't turned over since the groves were active are bought just the same as a car that died last week. Missing tailgate, cracked windshield, bald tires and a dead battery won't stop the sale.
Cars parked on soft ground for years sink in and get grown over. Our driver can winch a vehicle out of a yard, a pasture edge or a spot behind an outbuilding. Clear a path if you can, but don't try pulling it out yourself.
Estate vehicles are common in a town this old. If the title is in a late relative's name or can't be found, call and explain. Florida has paperwork routes for many of these situations, and we'll give you a straight answer on yours. Have whatever documents you do have nearby when you call, even an expired registration.
Some sellers live in town along the Scenic Highway, and others are out west toward US 27 on bigger pieces of land. The tow is free either way, and you're paid in cash before the car is hauled away. Distance inside town lines never changes the offer, and a long unpaved driveway doesn't add a fee.
Tell us the year, make, model and condition. Most Lake Hamilton quotes take under five minutes.
