Know the Rule

Junk Vehicle Rules in Shelbyville

Shelbyville's own ordinance

Under Shelbyville City Code (Abandoned Vehicles, Chapter 93 Nuisances): a vehicle is abandoned once it is three or more model years old and mechanically inoperable, left on private property for more than 20 days.

Read the rule at the source →

Shelbyville handles junk vehicles under its nuisance chapter, and the wording is worth noticing: the 20-day clock runs on a vehicle left on private property, without the 'visible from public property' qualifier that Carmel, Fishers and Lawrence all include. On a plain reading that is a broader rule — being out of sight behind the house is less of a defence here than it would be in Hamilton County. Shelbyville is a genuine drive from our yard, southeast down I-74, so we schedule it as same-day or next-day. As the Shelby County seat it is also where the county paperwork lives, which helps when a title needs chasing.

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"My Mitsubishi Galant was parked on the grass behind my apartment building and the landlord was furious. Cash Car Heroes squeezed their flatbed down the narrow drive and got it out. $275 cash and my landlord stopped calling. Worth every second."

★★★★★

"My AC had not worked in three summers and the paint was peeling off in sheets. I figured nobody would want my 2010 Dodge Avenger. Cash Car Heroes paid $300 and the driver said they see way worse every day. Ha!"

★★★★★

"Got rear-ended at a red light and the insurance company totaled my Mazda6. Kept the salvage title and called Cash Car Heroes. They gave me $475 and picked it up from my tight apartment carport without scratching anything. Impressive."

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Shelbyville

Under Shelbyville City Code (Abandoned Vehicles, Chapter 93 Nuisances): a vehicle is abandoned once it is three or more model years old and mechanically inoperable, left on private property for more than 20 days. Once that line is crossed the vehicle can be tagged, cited or towed. Selling it to Cash Car Heroes before then keeps the decision — and the money — with you. Read the rule.
Shelbyville is the Shelby County seat, so county offices are local. Handy if a title needs to be reissued rather than simply signed over. If you cannot find the title at all, call us anyway on (317) 538-4824 — we handle no-title situations regularly and can usually tell you in a couple of minutes whether we can still buy it.

Local Info

Junk Car Removal in Shelbyville

Shelbyville is the county seat of Shelby County and best known as the home of Indiana Grand Racing & Casino, which draws visitors from across the state. Located about 35 minutes southeast of our Indianapolis base via I-74, Shelbyville has a traditional Indiana downtown centered around the county courthouse. The city's economy is a mix of agriculture, manufacturing, and the gaming industry, and many workers commute in older vehicles that accumulate miles quickly. Shelbyville's distance from Indianapolis means residents do not always have easy access to junk car services, making Cash Car Heroes' door-to-door model especially valuable. We serve the entire Shelbyville area from the neighborhoods near Shelbyville High School to the rural properties along SR-9 and out toward Waldron.

Paperwork in Shelby County: Shelbyville is the Shelby County seat, so county offices are local. Handy if a title needs to be reissued rather than simply signed over.
