About Fred’s Auto Removal

 

Fred’s Auto Removal is more than just a junk car buying company—we’re a business built on experience, integrity, and innovation. Since our founding in 2017, we’ve grown from a local operation in Gresham, Oregon to a trusted vehicle buyer and removal service across the entire state of Oregon—and now, the nation.

Our mission is simple: to make selling your car fast, easy, and profitable, no matter where you are or what condition your vehicle is in.

Our Origins: From Marketing to Movement

Fred’s Auto Removal was founded in 2017 by Fred L. Marlow IV, an entrepreneur from Portland, Oregon. At the time, Fred was working in the automotive industry, handling marketing and vehicle procurement for several major wrecking yards in the Portland area. Through this experience, he saw an opportunity to create a better customer-focused model for car buying and removal.

With a vision to serve all of Oregon—and eventually nationwide—Fred launched Fred’s Auto Removal as a DBA under Fred’s Towing LLC. What began as a small operation in Gresham quickly grew to serve the entire state, offering transparent pricing, fast removal, and the most cash for junk vehicles.

What We Do

We specialize in buying junk cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs in any condition. Whether the vehicle is running, wrecked, salvaged, or just taking up space, we’re here to help. Our wide network includes:

  • Licensed auto wrecking yards
  • Vehicle recyclers
  • Used car dealers
  • Salvage rebuilders
  • Towing Companies

This allows us to give our customers the highest possible payout—often with same-day pickup and payment. We handle the towing, the paperwork, and the payment from start to finish.

We help these businesses source high-demand inventory while continuing to serve individual vehicle sellers with the same honesty and speed that built our local reputation.

More Than Just Business—It’s a Mission

  • Expanding our car buying network across all 50 states
