Peddle

Question 1

What types of cars do you buy in Ohio?

Accepted Answer

All kinds. Daily drivers, older cars, inherited cars, high-mileage vehicles, cars that need work—if you own it and have the title, we’ll make you an offer. You don’t have to have a perfect car to get a fair one.

Question 2

How does Peddle determine the value of my car in Ohio?

Accepted Answer

We look at your car’s year, make, model, mileage, and condition. Be upfront about your car’s condition and your offer is yours—no surprises at pickup. It takes a few minutes to get your offer—no sign-up required.

Question 3

How do I get an offer?

Accepted Answer

Enter your car’s year, make, model, and answer a few quick questions about its condition. No account needed. You’ll see your offer immediately and have seven days to decide—no pressure.

Question 4

What documents do I need to sell my car in Ohio?

Accepted Answer

You’ll need your Ohio Certificate of Title with the assignment section completed and your signature notarized—Ohio requires notarization for title transfers. For vehicles with a model year of 2011 or newer (within 20 years of original sale), you’ll also need an Odometer Disclosure Statement (Form BMV 3724). If your title is lost, apply for a duplicate at your county Clerk of Courts title office before we can complete the sale. Visit our help center for more information.

Question 5

Does my signature on the Ohio title need to be notarized?

Accepted Answer

Yes—and this is one of the most important things to know about selling a car in Ohio. The seller must complete the assignment section on the back of the title and have the signature(s) notarized. Many BMV offices have a notary on-site. If you’re not sure where to go, your county Clerk of Courts title office can help. Visit our help center for more information.

Question 6

What do I do with my license plates in Ohio after selling?

Accepted Answer

Remove your plates before or at the time of pickup—in Ohio, plates stay with the owner, not the car. You can transfer them to another vehicle you own or submit a Customer Request to Cancel Vehicle Registration (Form BMV 4311) along with your plates to a BMV office to cancel your registration.

Question 7

Do I need to notify the Ohio BMV after I sell my car?

Accepted Answer

Ohio doesn’t require sellers to file a formal notification with the BMV, but it’s smart to keep copies of the completed title and any bill of sale for your records. Once the sale is done, cancel your registration and insurance to stop any ongoing costs. The buyer is responsible for completing the title transfer within 30 days.

Question 8

Can the offer amount change? Can I change my mind?

Accepted Answer

Your offer is valid for seven days—you’ve got time to think it over. If the car’s condition matches what you described when you got the offer, the price holds. If there are differences discovered at pickup, we’ll talk through it. As for changing your mind—totally fine. No pressure, no fees.

Question 9

When will my car be picked up? Do I need to be there?

Accepted Answer

Once you accept your offer, you’ll schedule a pickup time that works for you. Yes, you or someone you authorize needs to be present at pickup to hand over the title, receive the check, and sign off. Our pickup partner will do a quick condition check and you’ll be done.

Question 10

When do I get paid and how?

Accepted Answer

You get a check handed to you at the time of pickup—on the spot, right when your car is picked up. We don’t mail it later, we don’t do wire transfers. Check in hand, same day as pickup.

Question 11

Do you buy cars all over Ohio?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We serve the entire state—Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo, Akron, Dayton, Canton, and everywhere in between. If you’re in Ohio, we can get to you.

Question 12

What happens to my car after it's picked up?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the car. Some get resold. Some get recycled for parts. Some get crushed for scrap. We try to give every car the most useful second life possible—which is a fancy way of saying your old ride doesn’t just disappear into a void.
