Do we buy junk cars in Grafton?
KMK Towing & Recovery pays cash for junk cars across Grafton, including scrap, salvage, crashed and non-running vehicles, and cars that still run but cost too much to fix.

Grafton started as a mill town on the Milwaukee River. Farmers built the Grafton Flour Mill in 1846, and the village incorporated on March 30, 1896. From 1929 to 1935, the Wisconsin Chair Company's Paramount Records ran a studio and plant here, recording the blues and jazz that put Grafton on the Mississippi Blues Trail. The village had 12,094 people at the 2020 census, with another 4,157 in the Town of Grafton to the east.
KMK runs from 8517 W Kaul Ave on Milwaukee's northwest side. Grafton is about 18 to 20 miles north, through Mequon or up I-43, usually under 30 minutes. The drive is free.
Keith takes the call himself. He asks the year, make and model, whether you have the title, where in Grafton the car is and what condition it's in. Then he gives you a cash offer on the phone. Keith has seen other buyers quote high on the call and lowball in person. KMK doesn't. The number Keith gives you is the cash you're paid when the car is loaded.

Why do so many cars in Grafton end up as junk?
A lot of the cars KMK buys in Grafton aren't wrecks. They run, or ran until recently, and the repair estimate is bigger than the car's value. One Grafton customer put it plainly in a Google review: the car was a good one but needed far more work than it was worth. Winter salt on I-43 and WI 60, years of short cold-start trips and plain age push most cars to that point sooner or later. When you get there, a cash offer beats another round at the shop.

How does selling a junk car in Grafton work?
You call (414) 391-4900 or send the offer form. Keith asks six things: year, make, model, title or no title, where the car is in Grafton and what condition it's in. If you have a repair quote, mention it. A car that still drives and a car that won't start both have value, and Keith needs to know which one he's sending a truck for. You get a cash offer on that call.
Take the offer and Keith schedules the pickup the same day. A KMK truck drives up from Kaul Ave, loads the car, and you're paid cash on the spot for the amount quoted. Removal is part of every quote, so there's no separate pickup charge. If your car still runs, the sell my car for cash page explains how KMK prices it.
Can you sell a junk car in Grafton without the title?
Often, yes. KMK can buy a car without a title or key when you can show you own it. That means the registration in your name, or proof of insurance on that vehicle in your name. If the car came from a relative, or the title went missing somewhere between moves, say so on the call. If neither document fits, call and explain it anyway.
To replace a title first, start with the Wisconsin DMV. The sell without a title page explains how KMK handles a car without one. Either way, start with the call. Keith will tell you straight whether he can buy the car as it is.
Why do Grafton drivers sell to a buyer from Milwaukee?
Because KMK shows up when it says it will and pays what it quoted. 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 out. That's a 4.8 rating.
The same terms apply from Paramount Plaza to the Town of Grafton and into the towns nearby: Cedarburg on the west side, Mequon to the south, and Saukville and Port Washington to the north. No Ozaukee County surcharge and no story about the car looking worse in person. 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.

Grafton questions
Do you really pick up for free in Grafton?
Yes. Every KMK quote includes free same-day pickup and removal in Grafton, village or town. The drive from Kaul Ave is under 30 minutes, and it's on KMK.
Do you pay cash in Grafton?
Yes. The driver pays you in cash when the car is loaded, at the amount Keith quoted on the phone.
My car still runs, but the repair costs more than it's worth. Will you buy it?
Yes. A car that runs but isn't worth the repair is still a car KMK buys. Tell Keith what the shop quoted and he'll give you a cash number. The sell my car for cash page has more.
What if my car is in a garage or behind the house?
That's fine. Tell Keith where it's parked and whether it rolls. He'll send a truck that can reach it, and the price stays the same.
Is the Grafton price the same as a Milwaukee price?
Yes. KMK prices the car, not the ZIP code. A car in 53024 gets the same offer as one in Milwaukee.
