SUVs

SELL / TRADE YOUR VEHICLE

How Selling Your Car to Canadian Auto Works

We believe vehicle owners should understand the process before bringing their vehicle in.

Step 1 — Submit Your Vehicle Information

Start by completing our Trade-In / Sell Your Car Form.

Provide basic information such as:

Year
Make
Model
Trim
Kilometres
Vehicle condition
VIN, when requested
Accident or vehicle-history information
Loan or lien information, if applicable

This helps our team determine whether your vehicle may fit our current purchasing requirements.

SUBMIT MY VEHICLE

Step 2 — Bring Your Vehicle to Our St. Albert Location

If your vehicle meets our initial criteria, we'll arrange an in-person appraisal at:

Canadian Auto / We Buy Cars Canada
#109 – 25 Chisholm Avenue
St. Albert, Alberta T8N 5A5

We do not provide final vehicle values over the phone because an accurate offer requires us to see the actual vehicle.

Step 3 — Vehicle Inspection & Test Drive

Our team will evaluate your vehicle and may consider factors including:

Year, make, model and trim
Current kilometres
Mechanical condition
Interior condition
Exterior condition
Vehicle history
Accident history
Maintenance history
Tires and wheels
Options and equipment
Current market demand
Comparable vehicles
Current inventory requirements

A test drive is also required as part of our evaluation.

Step 4 — Receive Your No-Obligation Offer

Once the vehicle has been evaluated, we'll explain the available selling or trade-in options.

There is no obligation to accept an offer simply because we appraised your vehicle.

Step 5 — Accept the Offer & Complete the Sale

If you accept our purchase offer, our team will guide you through the required documentation and transaction process.

We help make the process straightforward so you don't have to search for a private buyer yourself.

Why Sell Your Vehicle to We Buy Cars Canada?

No Purchase Required

You don't have to buy another vehicle from Canadian Auto.

If you simply want to sell your qualifying vehicle, that's fine.

Professional In-Person Appraisal

Your offer is based on an evaluation of your actual vehicle rather than an automated online estimate that may change significantly once the vehicle is inspected.

No Classified Ads

Avoid taking photos, creating listings and repeatedly paying to promote your vehicle.

No Strangers at Your Home

You don't need to publish your personal contact information and arrange meetings with unknown buyers at your residence.

No Endless Messages

Avoid answering repeated questions such as:

"Is this still available?"

Our direct-purchase process eliminates the need to manage dozens of prospective buyers.

No Private Test Drives

You don't need to arrange individual test drives with people responding to your private advertisement.

No Need to Buy Another Vehicle

Selling your vehicle and purchasing another vehicle are separate decisions.

Take your proceeds and decide what you want to do next.

Local St. Albert Automotive Business

Deal with an established automotive business rather than an unknown online buyer.

What Vehicles Are We Looking For?

Our current direct-purchase program generally focuses on vehicles that are:

12 years old or newer
140,000 kilometres or less
Clean and well maintained
In good overall operating condition
Supported by acceptable ownership documentation
Suitable for our current purchasing needs

We consider both domestic and import vehicles.

Vehicles We Generally Do Not Purchase

We currently do not purchase vehicles that are:

Salvage status
Rebuilt status
Previously written off
Heavily damaged
Affected by major accident history

Every vehicle remains subject to individual review and current inventory requirements.

CARFAX and applicable inspection fees are waived when Canadian Auto purchases the vehicle.

FIND OUT IF YOUR VEHICLE QUALIFIES

What Is My Car Worth?

One of the most common questions vehicle owners ask is:

"How much is my car worth?"

There isn't one accurate answer based only on year, make, model and kilometres.

Your vehicle's actual market value can be influenced by:

Trim level
Options
Kilometres
Mechanical condition
Exterior condition
Interior condition
Accident history
Maintenance history
Number of previous owners
Tires and wheels
Seasonal demand
Local vehicle supply
Current wholesale and retail market conditions
Overall desirability of the vehicle

That's why We Buy Cars Canada does not provide final vehicle values over the phone.

We need to see, inspect and test drive the vehicle before making an accurate purchase offer.

REQUEST AN IN-PERSON APPRAISAL

Sell Your Car Instead of Trading It In

Already shopping for your next vehicle?

You don't necessarily have to trade your current vehicle to the dealership selling you the replacement.

Selling your vehicle separately can give you a clear purchase price for your current vehicle and allow you to evaluate your next vehicle transaction separately.

That means you know exactly what you're receiving for the vehicle you're selling.

You Can Sell to Us Even If You Buy Somewhere Else

There is no requirement to purchase your next vehicle from Canadian Auto.

Sell us your qualifying vehicle and use your proceeds however you choose.

Sell to a Dealer or Sell Privately?

A private sale may work for some owners, but it requires you to manage the entire transaction.

When selling privately, you may need to:

Research an asking price
Photograph the vehicle
Write advertisements
Publish listings
Respond to messages
Give out your contact information
Arrange appointments
Meet prospective buyers
Handle test drives
Negotiate offers
Verify payment
Deal with liens
Prepare documentation
Complete the transaction

Selling directly to We Buy Cars Canada provides another option.

We inspect the vehicle, make an offer and, if you accept, help complete the transaction.

Have a Loan or Lien on Your Vehicle?

Having financing remaining on your vehicle doesn't necessarily prevent you from selling it.

Tell our team about any outstanding financing when submitting your vehicle.

You may be asked to obtain a current payout statement from your lender so the outstanding balance can be properly addressed if we purchase the vehicle.

The exact process will depend on the lender, payout amount, vehicle value and transaction.

What Should I Bring to My Vehicle Appraisal?

To help make your appointment efficient, bring the documents and items available for your vehicle, including:

Government-issued photo identification
Current vehicle registration
Vehicle insurance information
Both sets of keys/remotes, if available
Maintenance and repair records
Owner's manuals
Current lien or loan payout information, if applicable
Vehicle-history information, when available

Additional documentation may be required depending on the vehicle and transaction.

Not Ready to Accept a Direct Purchase Offer?

Consider Canadian Auto's Park & Sell Program

Maybe speed isn't your highest priority.

If you'd rather market your qualifying vehicle toward a retail buyer, Canadian Auto also offers a Park & Sell option.

Advertising

Buyer appointments
Vehicle showings
Test drives

Eligible extended warranty options
