Why us

We didn't just generate junk car leads. We figured out what makes a seller pick a buyer.

Behind Junk Car Medics' 2 million+ junk car leads are years of work most agencies have never done. We A/B tested pages, forms, offers, and follow-up messages, again and again. We analyzed the data from every junk car lead, call, and offer. We surveyed tens of thousands of sellers about why they picked the buyer they did.

We've studied this industry longer and closer than any agency you'll talk to. We know what it takes to get to the top of Google, what turns a junk car lead into a phone call, and what turns that call into a car.

Generalist agencies treat junk cars like plumbing or roofing and learn on your budget. Lead sellers hand you the same junk car leads they sell your competitors. We already did the learning, and we only work with one yard per market.

We built the system. Now we'll run it for you.

Why now

Google wants to cut out the middleman in junk car searches. That's your yard's opening.

Google's job is to get a searcher to the right answer as fast as possible. When someone wants to sell a junk car, the right answer is the local business that actually buys it, not a national site that takes their info and sells it to a yard like yours.

We've watched it happen across core update after core update: third-party sites sliding down, and real local businesses with strong websites, profiles, and reviews moving up.

The spot is opening up in your market. The yard that's ready for it takes it.

The honest version

What junkyard marketing doesn't need. And what it does.

Before you spend a dollar with anyone, here's what we've learned actually moves the needle for a junkyard, and what doesn't.

You don't need

A $10,000 websiteA fast, simple site that gets an offer in front of the seller beats a fancy one. Ours is included.
Every social networkYou don't need TikTok videos to buy junk cars. Put the effort where sellers actually are.
Thousands in ads on day oneIf your Maps listing and reviews are weak, ads just leak money. Fix the foundation first.
A long contractIf it isn't working, you shouldn't be stuck. We don't ask for one.
More junk car leads you can't answerMore calls don't help if half of them go to voicemail and never hear back.

You do need

Top three on Google MapsIn the towns you actually buy in. That's where most junk car calls start.
Reviews that win the callSellers pick the yard that looks real, busy, and trusted.
A site that converts on a phoneLoads fast, shows an offer, and makes calling one tap.
Every seller answered in minutesA text back on every missed call, before they call the next yard.
Follow-up until they say yesMost sellers don't take the first offer. The yard that follows up gets the car.

That's the whole system. We build it, run it, and report on it every month.

The real math

Rented junk car leads cost more the more you grow. What your yard owns gets cheaper.

Lead sellers and per-car platforms charge you for every seller, forever. Want twice the cars? Pay twice the bill. Rankings don't work that way. Once you're on top in your towns, the next call costs you nothing extra, and every car you buy brings your cost per car down.

The Junk Car System

Full plan, $497 a week, no ads
Per month, full speed$2,154
Cost per car$48
Year one$25,844
Year two$25,844
At 5 calls a day, that's about 45 cars a month at full speed, for about $48 a car instead of $100. By year two you keep $28,156 a year that would have gone to rent, and the rankings keep working after that.

Example model, not a promise. It assumes about 6 months to reach full speed (month one is the build), the same calls and cars in every column, about $30 a lead, about $100 a car, and the $497-a-week full plan with no ads, so every call here comes from rankings you own. Prices vary by market and provider. Most yards see real movement in 3 to 6 months, and it can happen sooner. Your free market audit looks at the searches in your towns and gives you a real estimate.

FAQ

Local SEO questions from salvage yards and junkyards

Do you work with my competitors?

No. We take one partner per market. If your area is already spoken for, we'll tell you upfront.

Do you work with tow companies and junk car buyers too?

Yes. If your business depends on buying junk cars from the public, from a full salvage yard to a tow company with a few trucks, the same playbook applies.

I already have a website and someone running ads. Do I have to switch?

Not necessarily. The audit shows what's working. We keep what's earning its keep and fix or replace what isn't.

Who owns my website and accounts?

You do. Your domain, website, Google Business Profile, reviews, and rankings are yours. Ads run from our ad account, and you pay for those leads at cost.

How soon will I see results?

Most yards see real movement in 3 to 6 months, and it can happen sooner. Paid search can bring calls in the first weeks. Google Maps and SEO build month over month, and they keep paying off.

Why not just keep buying leads?

Leads and per-car fees are rent. They stop the day you stop paying, and you have nothing to show for it. Rankings, reviews, and a website that converts keep bringing in calls, so your cost per car keeps falling.

What does it cost?

The Junk Car System is $497 a week, billed weekly, with no contract. Maps Starter is $197 a week, and Multi-Location, for up to 3 locations, is $997 a week. Ads are optional: we run them and you pay a set price per lead for your market, usually $20 to $35, at cost with no markup.

Is there a setup fee or a contract?

No setup fee and no contract. You pay weekly, so there's never a big payment up front, and the first month covers the build.
