Al Buys Junk Cars in
Orlando (FL)

Do not attempt to do business with this person I know the reviews seem decent, but it’s because they are from people desperate for cash, but I will give you an honest review the owner of this company is extremely unorganized, unprofessional and unnecessarily rude. The rudeness seems to be reaction to his frustration with his bad business practices that he can’t seem to get together. I called this gentleman on yesterday to inquire about selling my vehicle. He made me an offer. He asked me when I would like the vehicle picked up. I told him as soon as possible, I could 20 meet in 20 min he tells me Not gonna happen what will happen is they will call me when a driver is 30 minutes out, which should’ve just been told to me. Why asked me if you’re gonna Come anytime in eight hour window that should be communicated to people. I spoke to this man at 11 AM.. It’s just unprofessional I definitely understand This is how the process works I’ve worked in dispatch for a tow truck company that’s very reputable with multiple contracts with the state of Florida Police Department and highway patrol so I know You shouldn’t Inform a person when there’s a several hour window I’ve also worked in junk cars so I know that they do have restrictions, timewise and issues with drivers but if that’s the case, you schedule to pick ups their vehicle . so that was our first huge miscommunication because he then proceeded to call me back five hours later telling me he has a driver that could be there in 30 minutes as if I had been sitting by the vehicle waiting for him all day to call me. I was at a doctors appointment because I was in an accident reason why I’m selling my car and this man refused to get off the call while I was in the doctors office. I kept telling him I would call him back to reschedule because I am in a doctor’s office. He did not want to hear it. I literally had to basically hang up on him. I told him I would call him the following morning, which was this morning to reschedule. I get a call from my husband that his tow truck driver has just showed up at their tow yard to pick up the car without calling me without my title without anything they just came to get my car without any notice and when I called this man about this, I noticed in my call log that he had been calling me every minute for the last hour and a half to the degree that my phone had marked it as spam. wasn’t letting it ring When I got him on the phone to inquire about why he had sent a driver there without us making an appointment he asked me didn’t no one call me and I told him no and No calls the voicemail no text and. I’m not comfortable using you guys anymore with the way you’re going about that. Why would somebody show up there to get my car without my tag or me and then he proceeded to hang up in my face so that’s the service you’ll get there. That’s his attitude when he makes 1 million mistakes and it’s sad. I pray for him and I hope he does better with his business and and life. Jesus didn’t die for this. I can guarantee it to you Jesus didn’t give his life for you to take your frustrations out on me because you do bad business hanging up in my face was totally unnecessary totally unethical totally un Christian and ungodly and just add human for what because you messed up a sale because you get an organize or scheduling anything to get that No problem selling to you until you made it weird you asked me when I wanted my car picked up and then told me I couldn’t have it picked up and then tried to come get it regardless without permission you’re psychotic please to help I swear to God, Jesus saves you need to go to church. Also, I must add that I offered to bring the car to him as my husband is Tow truck driver at a yard less than 10 minutes from He insisted on giving me his free tow and having All of this confusion could’ve been settled with that but being Indignant that I didn’t sit around all day and wait for him to have a driver available and wasnt happy when he showed up for my car with no kind of notice the next day insane.

Update #2 05/28/25: After several weeks of back and forth, I finally received a check. Although it took a while, they were true to their word. UPDATE 05/13/2025: It's been two weeks and 3 conversations since my last review and still they haven't sent a check. I get the run around every time I call. Poor communication. Poor Customer Service. Untrustworthy Business. I called them to pick up a vehicle to be scrapped. They said they would give me $650 for it and we agreed. I mailed the title but they haven't sent my check. I have tried calling, no one answers or returns my calls.

Gave them a call and described my 2002 Kia, given a more than expected quote. Driver came same day, called when arrived and was very professional. No haggling down the quote of any kind and paid on the spot. Quick, easy and I highly recommend them to anyone.

I “sold” my wrecked and totaled car to Als. They were quick and easy to deal with. The driver of the tow truck was very kind and friendly.

Al buys car aka Wheezly is super easy to work with they handled all the paperwork and customer service was very nice and friendly. The driver who picked up my vehicle was very courteous and nice and on time. They even came out the very next day to pick up my vehicle for free from the tow yard it was at. Thanks so much Al buys junk cars.

I recently had the opportunity to sell a vehicle and came across Al Buys Junk Cars. I called and immediately had a pickup date and cash offer. They were flexible because I had to change the original date. This was a life saver for me. Thanks, Al for your prompt and courteous service. I would highly recommend for a no-nonsense transaction. So, if you are in the market to junk a vehicle give them a call Al, Manny or Chris. Thanks, guys for your reliable and prompt service when I needed it. Just a bonus tip...Al's smile alone was worth the trip from Port Saint Lucie to Orlando. Recent 2003 Honda owner... :)

We have sold several vehicles to Al Buys Junk Cars and is always quick, easy and pays good and fair market price. They are my first call and have used them for years. Beware of other places that quote you over the phone and then offer you lower prices with they arrive and make excuses of why they cannot pay as much. This place shoots straight. Thank you.

I called just after 8am on a Sunday and Sam took my call right away and offered a better price than I expected, and said I could bring the car right in since it was still drivable. He paid me cash on the spot and the whole deal was done within 2 hours of finding them on google. Would definitely work with him again.

When another company reneged on our deal, this company matched it and picked up the car soon thereafter. Christian Soto, the tow truck driver was very pleasant and efficient. Ninety minutes later, the deal was done. No fuss, no muss!

Sam and Max were Amazing with Great Customer Service. They gave me mommy battery out of my car which I greatly appreciated due to it still being brand new and they did it with no hassle, I also left my tag in the car after they had already picked it up they also let me and come and get that with no hassle. I just wanted to Thank you guys so much !

I called and compared prices from about 10 junk car companies, Sam not only price-matched my highest offer, but then offered me even more on top. I just had a same-day free pick up and max amount of cash that I could've gotten for the car. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Called & spoke with Chris, he was very nice. Offered me a Great price for our car. As he was hanging up & said "Have a Blessed day," I knew I found the right company. When the tow driver London showed up the following afternoon, he was just as courteous & respectful as Chris was. He was both very patient & helpful as well. Definitely would recommend this company to anyone who doesn't want to deal with countless potential buyers & strangers coming to your house. This is an easy cash deal with a fair price per the current condition of your car. Will certainly utilize the services of this company again if need be!

I blew my 20 year old car up and this company went above and beyond by giving me cash for my car and towing it and also the tow truck driver got permission to take me to the nearest gas station. They were genuinely concerned about my safety as I was in a pinch and trying to get home to my family almost 3 hours away. Sad my car blew up but under the circumstances this company has excellent customer service. 10 stars if I could give them that many.

I had a old family car that ended up giving out on me. They offered the best solution and worked with my schedule. Sam is helpful and their team is very professional. I truly appreciate the ease of the process and I got a nice deal.

5 stars! It was fast and easy to make the call and arrange everything. Great quotes on your junk car. I had the pleasure of meeting Sam, the fantastic gentleman that helped pick up my car. Highly recommend them!!

Sam is major cool and great to work with, and Jr. isn’t to bad himself LOL , very wonderful towing company, and would highly recommend. It was such a great and quick experience in less than an hour times frame I called for the quote and had the cash in my hand for my 2001 Ford Focus. Thank you guys

I needed a car to be towed and junked. Axel was very pleasant and gave me all of the information I requested and told me to call back if I had additional questions. With this being my first time junking a car, I had several questions. Each time I called back James answered the phone and was very patient and showed extreme understanding regarding my situation. James agreed to stay after normal working hours until I was able to get there with the title. Everyone that I encountered at Al’s had the best customer I’ve experienced in a long time. Thank you very much James!!! You made me a very happy customer.

James was a man of his word..very rare in these times! The experience of selling my Honda Civic was very easy and smooth! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! would definitely use them again! Thank you James for making a very difficult time so easy! Thank you for going above and beyond to provide excellent service!

I had an old car I needed to get rid of quickly and these guys delivered. Axel especially was fantastic. He kept in contact to let me know when he would arrive, and he gave me the full offer and took the car quickly and painlessly. He was also wearing gloves and a face mask, which made me feel safer during this crazy time of COVID. Definitely would recommend!

This was my first time dealing with selling my car to Al Buys Junk Cars and it was a pleasant transaction. There was a minor hiccup with scheduling on their part but when the driver, Axel, arrived he was very nice. He was kind, had a nice conversation as he worked, and made me feel comfortable about letting go of my car. There were things I still needed to remove and he was so very patient and allowed me to have my privacy as I cleaned up alittle. The process was very short and a good experience.

I went through these people with my friend and he is a very very awesome guy. Sam went from $125 to $210 with nothing but fun in between. Not to mention his son Axl made it here and a great amount of time so I was able to get the car out of the business before they were able to tow it. I would definitely recommend Albuys junk cars and use them myself, give Sam a call he's an awesome guy!

2nd time selling a junk vehicle to Al. Manny was prompting in giving me an offer and setting up a same day time to pick up. Sam the driver was very respectful and polite. Called a couple of minutes after I hung up with Manny to let me know due to traffic he would be running about 15 minutes late. Definitely recommend them.

I was referred to Al Buys Junk Cars by a major dealership in town that put my mind at ease that they are reputable. I called on a Tuesday and they were able to pick the vehicle up on Wednesday. Sam was professional and informative. I had a 10:30 appointment and they even called to see if they could come early.

Not sure what the name of the person was over the phone but he was great, helped me out really quick, was kind, and respectful. That’s not the end of it though, above all was Sam the driver who came out ASAP through this bad Florida weather and really helped me out with my current situation, trying all types of different ways to get me the most money out my car. In the end I just wanna say thank you very much Sam!!!

Manny was very courteous on the phone. Scheduled call for same day. When there was an issue with timeframe they moved things around to accommodate my schedule. Sam the driver was very nice, very professional and handled everything very quickly. I highly recommend Al’s.

Sam came to take my car and pay me but there was no catalytic converter so the price got cut down, I told him my situation and how I was trying to get into another car and they worked with me to get the most out of my car. Even with the valuable missing part. These guys will work with you and will not rip you off. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING GUYS. and for you Sam for being so helpful and considerate

I had Al Buys Junk Cars taking care of my old Sebring today, very professional and very clear. The gentleman I talked to on the phone sent a driver to me, Sam who was awesome and understanding as I was in a rush and had to go back to work! They made it within an hour! I do recommend them :)
