Didsbury is a town of about 5,000 on the Highway 2A side of the QEII, roughly 85 kilometres from our Calgary yard. It is part of our Mountain View County loop with Carstairs and Olds, so we pass through often. A vehicle you no longer want, running or not, gets loaded on a flatbed at no cost and you are paid cash up to $10,000 on the spot. Your licence plate stays with you.
To book, call 403-991-7717 between 9am and 9pm. We ask a few questions about the vehicle and give you a price and a pickup day.
Junk car removal in Didsbury has never been this simple! Following our 3-step process is the quickest and easiest way to get rid of your scrap cars or unwanted vehicles in return for top dollar instant cash.
Didsbury is small enough that we know most of the streets. Here is how the job goes.
The truck takes Deerfoot Trail out of Calgary and stays on the QEII past Airdrie and Carstairs to the Highway 582 exit, then heads west into Didsbury. That is a little over an hour on a normal day. Didsbury’s older streets near the rail line and 20 Street have back lanes, and the newer subdivisions have front driveways; the flatbed works with both. A lot of our Didsbury pickups are actually outside town, on farms along Highway 2A, Highway 582 or the Rosebud River, and those gravel approaches are fine when they are dry. If the vehicle is inside a shed or behind a locked gate, tell us on the phone so we are not stuck waiting for a key.
If the vehicle is in Didsbury proper, a call before noon can sometimes get it collected the same day when our truck is already headed north. Farm pickups are more often booked for the next scheduled run so the driver has daylight and time for the winch work.
Didsbury has a hospital, a solid main street and a farming community that stretches in every direction. The vehicles we collect are mostly one of two things. First, farm trucks: half-tons and three-quarter-tons with rusted boxes, an old one-ton with a flatbed, or a grain truck that has been parked since the new one arrived. Second, family cars that commuted to Calgary until something expensive broke, such as a Dodge Journey with a dead transmission or a Chevrolet Cruze with a cracked block. Our offer depends on weight and what is recoverable, so trucks earn more than cars, and a vehicle with its converter, wheels and engine intact earns more than a stripped one.
We should also say what we do not want: we do not buy vehicles that are not yours to sell, and we do not take a car from a rental property on a landlord’s say-so alone. Everything else, from a rusted Mennonite-era farm truck to last year’s write-off, is fair game and priced on the phone.
Alberta does not run a scrap-car program, so the sale is a private one with a bill of sale. Our driver writes it up on site with the VIN, the price and your name, and you keep a copy. You need to show ownership, usually the registration certificate, and some ID; the registration does not have to be current. Pull the licence plate off before we load, because in Alberta the plate stays with the owner rather than the vehicle. When you have a moment, Didsbury Registries at 2004 20 Street can cancel the registration or transfer the plate to another vehicle.
We pay cash for cars and trucks of all shapes and sizes. We recycle rusty, damaged vehicles in any condition:

Vehicles with Flat Tires 
Rusty Vehicles 
Vehicles with Accident Damage 
Unfinished Vehicle Projects We serve Didsbury and the farms around it, including Westcott, Zella and the properties along Highway 2A, Highway 582 and the Rosebud River. Carstairs, Olds and Sundre are on the same Mountain View County run.
We are in Mountain View County most weeks and Didsbury is on the route. When you call we give you the next scheduled day; if the vehicle is urgent we will try to fit it sooner.
Yes, if you are the executor or have the estate’s permission. Bring the ownership document and anything showing your authority, and we will note it on the bill of sale.
Usually, because it weighs more. Steel deck, dual rear wheels and a bigger engine all add to the price. Describe it on the phone and we will price it accordingly.
Didsbury Registries at 2004 20 Street, downtown. Bring the plate you removed and our bill of sale, and ask for the registration to be cancelled. If you are in Olds or Carstairs first, their registries can do the same thing.
We will try, but a loaded flatbed on soft gravel is a bad idea for everyone. In a wet spring we may ask to wait a few days for the approach to firm up.
It goes to our yard in Calgary where fluids are drained, usable parts are pulled and the shell is crushed and recycled. Nothing is dumped or resold as a running car.
