Junk car pickup in North Hammond

Cash for Junk Cars Hammond picks up junk cars in North Hammond, mostly from the homes south of the Toll Road along and off Calumet Avenue. Send the car’s details, hear the offer, and we tow it from where it sits. The tow costs nothing, and you’re paid when the car is hauled away.

Where North Hammond is

North Hammond lies between the Grand Calumet River and Wolf Lake. Chicago’s Hegewisch neighborhood is to the west across the state line, and East Chicago is to the east.

Much of it is industrial. The homes are mainly south of the Toll Road, and Calumet Avenue is the main street through the neighborhood. The Toll Road (I-90) has an exit at Calumet Avenue, and the Hammond Gateway South Shore station, which opened in October 2024, is in North Hammond too.

For a tow truck, that’s a good combination: an interstate exit on the neighborhood’s main street.

Pickup notes for North Hammond

At home, south of the Toll Road. Give us the street address and the nearest cross street off Calumet Avenue. Say whether the car is on the street, in a driveway or in a garage, and whether it rolls.

At an industrial site. If your car is sitting at work, in a yard or a lot that isn’t yours:

• tell us the site’s name and address;
• check whether someone has to open a gate or sign the truck in;
• get the site’s okay for the tow before the truck is booked;
• make sure the car is yours to sell; if the title is missing, tell us what papers you have.

Near the state line. Hegewisch is right there. Give the full street address, and we’ll sort out the rest.

What we buy in North Hammond

Junk, wrecked and scrap cars. Cars that won’t start, cars with crash damage, cars that have been parked on a lot so long the tires have gone flat. No title? We can still help. Here in Indiana the sale needs the title or a $4 BMV certificate of authority, and we’ll sort out which fits your car on the call.

We don’t buy running used cars for resale.
