Do we buy junk cars in Germantown?
KMK Towing & Recovery pays cash for junk cars in Germantown, along with worn-out work vans, pickups and anything else that won't run. KMK has bought cars since 2014 and holds a 4.8 rating from 506 Google reviews. Pickup is free and scheduled the same day, and the price Keith gives you on the phone is the price you're paid.
Germantown is seven old hamlets in one village. South Germantown incorporated as the Village of Germantown in 1927, and in 1963, to head off annexation, it took in Dheinsville, Rockfield, Goldenthal, Willow Creek, Kuhberg and Meeker Hill, growing to about 24 square miles. It now covers about 34.4 square miles with 20,917 people at the 2020 census, and only about a third of that land is developed. Its edges touch Waukesha, Ozaukee and Milwaukee counties.
KMK runs from 8517 W Kaul Ave on Milwaukee's northwest side, and Germantown is one of the closest pickups outside Milwaukee County: roughly 10 to 14 miles straight up I-41/US 45, about 20 minutes. The drive is free.
Keith takes the call himself. He asks the year, make and model, whether you have the title, where in Germantown the vehicle is and what shape it's in, and he gives you a cash offer on the phone. If you have several vehicles, he'll quote each one. Other buyers quote high on the call and lowball in the lot. KMK doesn't. The number Keith gives you is the cash you get when it's loaded.

Why do so many vehicles in Germantown end up as junk?
Germantown is part farm town and part business park. Two-thirds of the village is still open land, so older pickups and farm vehicles sit out on rural lots across the old hamlets for years. Along the I-41 corridor it's the opposite problem: contractors and small fleets run work vans and trucks hard, and once one hits high miles and needs a major repair, it gets parked at the back of the lot. Both kinds end up taking space nobody wants to give them. KMK buys them and hauls them out.

How does selling a junk car in Germantown work?
Call (414) 391-4900 or send the offer form. Keith asks six things: year, make, model, title or no title, where the vehicle is in Germantown and what condition it's in. For a work vehicle, mention the mileage and what failed. A van with a dead engine and a pickup with a rusted-out bed are both worth money, and Keith needs to know which one he's quoting. You get the cash offer on that call.
Take the offer and Keith schedules the pickup the same day. A KMK truck comes up from Kaul Ave, loads the vehicle and pays you cash on the spot. Removal is part of every quote, so there's no separate charge for the pickup. If a car that isn't yours has been left on your property, that's handled through private property impound instead.
Can you sell a junk car in Germantown without the title?
Often, yes. KMK can buy a vehicle without a title or key when you can show it's yours: the registration in your name, or proof of insurance on that vehicle in your name. Business vehicles are usually titled to the company, so have the company's paperwork handy. If the situation is messier than that, call and explain it.
To replace a title first, start with the Wisconsin DMV. The sell without a title page explains how KMK handles a vehicle without one. Either way, start with the call. Keith will tell you straight whether he can buy it as it stands.
Why do Germantown owners sell to KMK?
Because KMK is 20 minutes away and the price doesn't move once the truck arrives. KMK has bought cars since March 2014, from the Kaul Ave yard since December 2014. Across 506 Google reviews, customers mention cash paid for the vehicle, a quick and easy pickup, a fair value and no charge to come to the property. That's a 4.8 rating.
The same terms apply from Old Main Street to Rockfield and into the communities around Germantown: Menomonee Falls to the south, Mequon to the east, Richfield and Jackson to the north, and West Bend and Hartford further up the road. No Washington County surcharge. The phone price is the price.

Keith was very prompt and picking up two damage cars that were in a garage fire paid us a fair value great experience super nice guy.
Glen S. Thrilled with the prompt return phone call from the company. Received an offer at that time, and the car was picked up within a couple hours, and I received cash on the spot. So easy! I couldn't have been more happy, because the other "very reputable business" didn't show up. Thank you, again, for the quick response!
Nancy N. Keith came right on time to Grafton, money as promised, same day and fair and efficient. Car was a good one but needed far more work than it was worth. Would def do business with again, thank you Keith! Hassle free was what I needed.

Germantown questions
Do you really pick up for free in Germantown?
Yes. Every KMK quote includes free same-day pickup and removal in Germantown. It's about 20 minutes up I-41 from the yard, and the drive is on KMK.
Do you pay cash in Germantown?
Yes. You're paid in cash on the spot when the vehicle is loaded, at the amount Keith quoted.
We have several old work vehicles. Will you buy them all?
Yes. Give Keith the year, make, model and condition of each one, plus whatever titles you have. He'll quote each vehicle on the call and set up the pickup.
Someone left a car in our business lot. Can you remove it?
That's KMK's private property impound service, not a purchase. KMK removes unauthorized vehicles for property owners, and proof that you own the property is required every time.
Is the Germantown price the same as a Milwaukee price?
Yes. KMK prices the vehicle, not the county line. A van in 53022 gets the same offer as one in Milwaukee.
