5 min read

In the world of online car sales, you’re bound to run into some shady characters. There’s plenty of scams, timewasters, and sleazy salesmen out there, especially on sites like Craigslist, or Facebook Marketplace. It’s no surprise lots of car owners are uneasy about selling their car online.

So when people ask us if Peddle is legit, we get it. But the truth is Peddle is not only legit, we’re too legit to quit (hey-hey!).

Peddle was all started to make selling your car online quick, safe, and simple. Our founder and CEO, Tim, came up with the idea when he was studying comp-sci and working part-time at his dad's salvage yard. Since then, we’ve grown from junk car removal to one of the most popular used car buyers in the country. We’ve bought over 2.5 million cars and over 125 thousand 5-star reviews. We think that’s a pretty good track record.

But if you’re still wondering what makes Peddle legit, don’t sweat it. Let’s take a moment to run through how it works—and why you should sell your car our way.

Peddle makes it simple to sell your car

If you’re thinking, “how do I sell my car online,” Peddle is as easy as pie. And you can do it all online in a few minutes. First up, tell us a bit about your car. So things like the make, year, model, mileage, and the overall condition.

Then we’ll give you an instant offer (an actual instant offer by the way—and we don’t ask for your contact details until you’ve seen your offer).

And finally we’ll arrange a pickup for your car for free, hand you a check, and be on our way.

It’s been working great so far—did we mention we’ve bought over 2 million cars just like this already? If we did, it’s because we’re pretty proud of it.

Our customer service team is awesome

Our super duper helpful customer service team is what keeps everything ticking smoothly. These peeps are on hand every step of the way (just in case) and have racked up some excellent reviews just doing what they do best—going above and beyond to eliminate any hurdles, concerns, or road bumps and ensure every user has an overwhelmingly awesome experience with us.

Of course, Peddle is designed so that you can sell your car online without having to speak to anyone. Smooth, easy, seamless, fast are all words people use to describe our online process. But, of course, special circumstances sometimes arise and a human touch can be just the thing. Even if you just WANT a human to check in with about anything at all, we’re always here. Pinkie promise.

So if you want to give us a call to figure out if Peddle is right for you? No problem-o. Having tech problems? We’ve got you. Need someone to talk you through payments, paperwork, and car title rules? Just get in touch. We won’t let you down. 

Our reviews speak for themselves

If you’re still wondering whether Peddle is legit then we’d rather let our customers do the talking. Take a look on Trustpilot if you want to see what people are saying about us. From where we’re standing, it’s looking pretty excellent (just saying!).

So if you’re thinking about selling your car online then we say: do it with Peddle. You could say it’s the most legit option out there.

“I was having difficulty believing just how easy it was to sell my car to Peddle! I really had to research if it was a legit business because everything went so smoothly. It was a perfect deal from start to finish. The offer was higher than I expected, the transaction was fast, the pick up of my vehicle was a few days, (but I live in a town far away from a major city), the communication was very efficient and thorough and the check was traded for the title at the show where my car was picked up. Thank you Peddle!” - Dale

"Dealing with Peddle was trustworthy and quick. When the driver came to pick up the car, he was prepared. Peddle is the best way to get a fair offer, and sell your car, hassle-free!” - Jonathan

"Very professional service, the price offered for my car didn’t change. A towing agency contacted me, I provided my title and a quick inspection was done. The process was simple and easy!" - V. Cohen

I've used them twice to get rid of cars either not running or not in good shape. Fair offer, you know just what you're getting. And you don't have to worry about a bunch of spam calls or waiting on competing offers like you do other places. The company partner contacted me same day and were very quick to schedule.

What a great experience! Very easy. Sad to see my car dead on the side of the road, but Peddle made everything smooth: I did the online quote, they sent a truck out the next day, and I was paid immediately. Thank you, Peddle!

Selling my old junk car couldn't have been easier than what this was. A couple of clicks on the keyboard one or two phone calls between transport and was done!!! Happy with the price I got, trade in prices were much lower than what I got from peddle. If there is a need to use this service again I will gladly do it!!

Peddle made the process to sell my 2007 Honda Fit super easy. Received a quote within minutes of submitting my information and their price was significantly higher than others. Their local pick-up partner was also responsive and worked with me on what could have been a logistical nightmare. Highly Recommend.

Awesome experience! I was apprehensive at first because everything seemed too simple. I answered a few questions, received a quote and scheduled pick up. Communication is excellent. The pick-up driver was very professional and knowledgeable. I got $685 for my 2004 Lexus ES

My mother's 2003 Nissan Xterra had a broken timing belt and was too old to consider such a costly repair. We just needed to get rid of it. Peddle was hassle-free, very responsive, and gave us same-day service with a great offer!

This was such a quick and easy service to use! I cleaned my things out of the vehicle and it was ready to be picked up. I went online last night, it was towed this afternoon. My tow driver Will, is awesome!! Thank you so much, I definitely thought this was going to be a hassle and it couldn't have been more simple!

Very easy and fast process. Peddle offered me significantly more than other companies. In less than 24-hrs from clicking the "Accept Offer" button, my 2015 Toyota Highlander was picked up and check in hand. Could not have gone any better. Highly recommend!
