Sold junk car in Denver

"After submitting my information online I received a very fast offer for my car. Once I accepted the offer they let me know who to contact to pick up the car. I called the towing company and we agreed on a date for the car to be picked up. The towing company arrived at the agreed upon time, paid me on the spot, and hauled the car away. Great service. Would use them again."
