Fred and his team were great to work with. The whole process was simple, straightforward, and exactly as promised. They showed up when they said they would, handled everything professionally, and made the experience easy from start to finish. It’s clear they know what they’re doing and value good service. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking to sell a vehicle without the usual hassle.

I am beyond grateful for Fred and his exceptional service! During a stressful move between cities, I urgently needed to dispose of my theft victim clunker. I called Fred, and within 90 minutes he was hauling my car away. Fred is responsive, prompt, and didn't think twice about helping me out. Highly recommend Fred if you need to junk your vehicle!

About Fred's

Built by a car guy
from Portland.

Fred's Auto Removal was founded in 2017 by Fred L. Marlow IV, a Portland entrepreneur who spent years handling marketing and vehicle procurement for major wrecking yards in the area. He saw a better, more customer-focused way to buy cars, and built it.

What started as a small operation in Gresham now serves all of Oregon and sellers nationwide, backed by a network of licensed wrecking yards, recyclers, dealers, rebuilders and tow partners. That network is how we pay top dollar.
