We accept domestic and import vehicles of any make or model, and we make the process easy by offering cash on the spot. In select local areas, we even provide free pick-up, so you don’t have to lift a finger. If it’s got wheels (or even if it doesn’t), we’re interested.

GMJS pays cash for a wide variety of metals, including aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel, and demolition steel.
