OutPOUND - Sell My Impounded Car>


Selling a car that’s been impounded can feel like a complicated and overwhelming task, but it doesn’t have to be. If your vehicle has been taken to an impound lot due to unpaid tickets, expired registration, or other legal issues, you still have options. One of the smartest things you can do is sell the vehicle, especially if you don’t plan to reclaim it. That’s where OutPOUND comes in! We specialize in helping people just like you sell impounded vehicles quickly, legally, and without the stress.

When a car is impounded, it’s typically towed and held at a storage facility. While it’s sitting there, daily storage fees add up fast. In some cases, owners find themselves facing hundreds or even thousands of dollars in charges before they even consider whether they want the car back. If paying the fees doesn't make financial sense,especially if the car is older or damaged, therefore, selling it is the better option. To sell an impounded car, you first need to know where it’s being held. Contact the tow yard or impound lot to get the exact location and find out how much is owed in fees. You’ll also need to prove you’re the legal owner, which usually means having the title in your name or some form of legal authority like a power of attorney. If you don’t have the title, you might need to get a duplicate from the DMV or resolve any existing liens.

This is where things can start to feel complicated, and that’s exactly why Outpound exists. We make the process of selling an impounded car as simple and straightforward as possible. Here is what you will need to begin to OUTPOUND your IMPOUNDED car!
