About Cash Car Heroes
FAMILY-OWNED SINCE 1996
Cash Car Heroes was founded in 1996 as a small, family-run operation on Stanley Avenue in Indianapolis. What began with a simple idea — give people a fast, fair, and honest way to sell their unwanted vehicles — has grown into the most trusted junk car buying service in central Indiana.
For 30 years, our team has stayed true to the values that built this business: treat every customer like family, offer the best price possible, and never cut corners. While the industry has changed around us, our commitment to integrity and community hasn't.
Today, we've purchased over 30,000 vehicles and earned 1,219+ five-star reviews from real Indianapolis customers. We're not a faceless corporation or a national call center — we're your neighbors, and we take pride in serving this community the right way.
A VERTICALLY INTEGRATED OPERATION
Cash Car Heroes is part of a vertically integrated auto recycling operation on Stanley Avenue in Indianapolis. That means when we buy your vehicle, we're not flipping it to a middleman — our team handles the full cycle: junk car buying, auto parts salvage, and responsible vehicle recycling. That's how we're able to pay more than a scrap-only buyer.
We've grown from a one-truck operation into a multi-vehicle fleet serving 25+ cities across central Indiana. Our philosophy is simple: "We treat every person who calls us the way we'd want to be treated. Give them the best price, show up when we say we will, and make the whole thing as painless as possible."

We're not a national chain. We live here, work here, and care about this community. Indianapolis is home.
BY THE NUMBERS
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
At Cash Car Heroes, we believe in doing right by our community and the environment. Every vehicle we purchase goes through a responsible recycling process that minimizes waste and maximizes the reuse of materials.
Fluid recovery: All automotive fluids — oil, coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and refrigerants — are carefully drained and disposed of or recycled according to EPA guidelines, keeping harmful chemicals out of our soil and waterways.
Parts salvage: Reusable components are carefully removed and made available for reuse, extending their life cycle and reducing the demand for new manufacturing.
Metal recycling: Vehicle frames and body panels are processed and recycled into new steel and aluminum products. Recycling metal uses significantly less energy than mining and refining new ore, reducing our carbon footprint one car at a time.
