A junkyard's map listing doesn't say whether the yard actually pays cash for vehicles or just sells parts already pulled from cars it owns — plenty of yards are parts-only and won't take a walk-in car at all. Every yard on this page is confirmed from its own site or posted terms to actively buy vehicles, not just sell them.

Junkyards that Buy Cars near Durham
Good to know
Can I sell my car to a junkyard without a title?
Some junkyards will still buy a car without a title if you can show other proof of ownership, like a registration matching your ID, but requirements vary by state and by yard. Having the title ready is the surest way to get full value and avoid the sale falling through.
How much do junkyards pay for a junk car?
Payouts depend mainly on the vehicle's weight and current scrap metal prices, plus whether any parts are still resellable, so amounts vary a lot by yard and by market conditions. Getting quotes from a couple of yards before committing is the simplest way to make sure you're not leaving money on the table.
