It’s The $$$ In Their Pockets!

At DamageMAX, we hear the same story from customers every day: a vehicle gets wrecked, flooded, or suddenly stops running, and the moment they start looking for offers, the numbers they receive are shockingly low. Dealerships don’t want anything damaged. Trade-in departments either decline the vehicle entirely or offer a fraction of what it’s worth. Scrap yards value cars strictly by weight, ignoring every usable component.
That’s where we come in.
DamageMAX.com was built on a simple belief: damaged vehicles hold more value than most buyers realize, and sellers deserve to benefit from that value. Because we specialize exclusively in damaged and non-running vehicles, we know how to evaluate them for their true worth, not just what they look like sitting in a driveway after an accident.
Our team uses real market data, national parts-demand analysis, and a wide network of certified dismantlers and rebuilders to calculate accurate payouts. This allows us to consistently offer more money than traditional buyers who rely on outdated formulas or limited resale channels.
For sellers, the result is simple: faster offers, higher payouts, and zero hassle.
We handle everything from valuation to pickup, and towing is always free. Once a customer accepts an offer, payment is guaranteed, no deductions, no fees, no renegotiation when the driver arrives. This is exactly why so many owners now choose DamageMAX as their first and only stop when selling a damaged vehicle.
To show how dramatically our offers outperform the typical market, here’s a comparison using a set of real vehicle types and common damage categories. These figures demonstrate exactly what we mean when we say we pay more than anyone else:

*Estimated “typical offers” based on general market behavior for damaged and wrecked vehicles.
This comparison makes one thing clear: the market dramatically undervalues damaged vehicles, until DamageMAX.com steps in.
By giving sellers access to the real value of their cars, we continue to lead the industry in payouts, service, and customer trust.
