If you've got a car sitting in your driveway that you don't want anymore, the hardest part is over — you've already decided to let it go. Joe's Cash For Cars makes everything after that as simple as it gets. You call, we make you an offer, you say yes, we show up and pay you on the spot. That's it.
We buy cars for cash all over Rufus and the surrounding Sherman County area — running or not, any make, any model, free towing, scheduled pickup.
A lot of people assume their old car isn't worth much — especially if it doesn't run, has body damage, or has been sitting for a while. But we buy cars in every kind of condition, and we almost always pay more than people expect. Give us a call at 619-762-2001 and find out exactly what your car is worth.
There's no shortage of people who claim they'll buy your car — but a lot of them will lowball you, ghost you after the inspection, or show up with a completely different number than what they quoted. We don't operate that way.
We service every part of Rufus, including:
Three steps from your first call to getting paid. No runaround, no hidden fees.
Tell us your car's year, make, model, and condition. We give you a real offer in under two minutes — no callbacks, no pressure.
Accept the offer and pick a time that works for you — often the same day or next. We come right to you in Rufus — home, work, wherever. You don't move an inch.
Our driver brings all the paperwork, handles the tow, and pays you before they leave. Under 30 minutes, start to finish.
Some car-buying services quote you high to get you interested, then the driver shows up and suddenly there's a problem with the catalytic converter or the transmission mounts and the offer drops by $300. We've heard this story from Rufus customers dozens of times. Our quote is based on an honest assessment, and that's the number we show up with — period.
Once you accept your offer, we'll set up a pickup time that works for you — often the same day or next day, especially if you're anywhere in Rufus or the surrounding Sherman County area. We run routes here regularly, so scheduling is rarely an issue. Give us a call and we'll lock in a time.
Transferring a car in Oregon involves more forms than most people expect — especially if the title isn't straightforward or there's an outstanding loan. Our drivers carry everything, know the process cold, and make sure it's all done correctly so you're not on the hook for anything down the road.
After we buy your vehicle in Rufus, it's either resold, parted out, or recycled through licensed facilities that meet all Oregon environmental regulations. We never abandon vehicles or dump them — every car we buy is handled responsibly.

Rufus is a small city in Sherman County, Oregon, with a population of 268 as of the 2020 census. Named after early settler Rufus Carrol Wallis, the city sits in the high desert along the Columbia River, bordered on its northern side by the river and the John Day Dam. The location offers visitors and residents access to wildlife including porcupines, coyotes, ground squirrels, deer, hummingbirds, ospreys, and kestrels. The community supports essential services and amenities including a gas station, post office, tackle shop, market, two restaurants, and two hotels. Outdoor recreation opportunities include Giles French waterfront park and a no-fee boat launch on the Columbia River.
Rufus holds significant archaeological importance as the location of site 35SH119, where Native American groups quarried petrified wood and other materials for stone tool creation over thousands of years. Though petrified wood was less desirable than obsidian for tool-making, the site's proximity made it a regularly visited quarry location. The archaeological site is situated on the west end of Rufus in what is now the Gorge Vista subdivision. The absence of human remains and datable artifacts prevented the site's inclusion in the national register of historic sites, with only original survey post marks indicating the quarry's location today. Rufus experiences a warm-summer Mediterranean climate with dry summers and no average monthly temperatures exceeding 71.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
