Cicero is the most densely built suburb on this site: about 85,000 people at the 2020 census, in a town that borders Chicago on the east. Space is tight, cars park close, and a junk car taking up a garage or a curb spot is a real cost. Junk Car Pickup Chicagoland Easy makes an offer on it and takes it away, with no charge for the tow.

Where Cicero cars usually sit

Each of these parking setups needs a slightly different heads-up:

Garages off the alley. Tell us whether the car rolls and whether the garage door works. A car nosed deep into a narrow garage with a dead battery is still a sale; the tow truck just needs to know.
Driveways and side pads. The easy ones. Move anything stacked around the car.
On the street. Give us the nearest house number and cross street. If the car hasn’t moved in a while and the tires are flat, say so.

We get around town on Cermak Road, 26th Street, Laramie Avenue, Austin Boulevard, Ogden Avenue, Roosevelt Road and Cicero Avenue. If you’re near the Pink Line’s 54th/Cermak terminal or the Metra BNSF Cicero station at Cicero Avenue and 26th Street, those make good reference points when we call.

Cicero is a town, and it writes its own rules

Cicero is organized as a town, not a village or city, but Illinois gives towns the same power: an ordinance can treat an inoperable car in public view as a nuisance, with removal possible 7 days after a notice. Before you get that notice, read our plain-English guide on when a parked car counts as inoperable in Illinois, then check the town’s code for the local details.

Work vans and pickups too

If yours is a working vehicle that finally quit (a cargo van, an older pickup, an SUV with a bad transmission), our page on junk truck and van pickup covers what to clear out of the bed and cab and what to tell us so the offer holds.

What pickup looks like

You send the year, make, model and title status. We call with an offer. If it works, we set a time, and same-day pickup is often possible. At pickup you sign the title over (or hand over the papers we confirmed on the call), the car is loaded, and you’re paid. We wrote this page because we pick up in Cicero; it’s meant to answer what that looks like on your block.

Cicero pickup questions

My car is in a garage off the alley. Can you get it out?

Usually, yes. Tell us the car is in an alley garage, whether the tires hold air and whether the garage door opens. Clear a path in front of the car before pickup.

Can you pick up a car parked on the street in Cicero?

Yes. Give us the nearest address and the cross street, and tell us which side of the street it's on. Take the plates off before the tow truck arrives; in Illinois they stay with you.

Do you buy cars in Cicero without a title?

No title? We can still help. Tell us what's in the glove box instead: a bill of sale, the registration, an insurance card. Illinois decides which of those can back a scrap sale, and we confirm it with you when we call.
