The

way to sell your car in Ottawa

If you are selling your car in Ottawa, Clutch provides a quicker, easier, and more secure option than selling it privately or at a traditional dealership. Our offers are benchmarked against current retail and wholesale values and are firm and haggle-free. As long as the vehicle information you provide is truthful and accurate the price you are quoted will be the price you are paid. To make things more convenient, we don’t require you to clean your car or take photos - leave that to us. And if you’re on a tight schedule, our quick and efficient process allows you to sell us your car the same day you get your offer and get paid instantly. 

Clutch is a quick, easy, and secure way to sell your car in Ottawa. Get a firm offer instantly by entering your licence plate or VIN and answering a few quick questions about your car. If you like our offer, schedule an appointment for us to pick it up or for you to drop it off at one of our locations near Ottawa. We’ll reach out to finalize the details and you’ll get paid instantly when we receive your vehicle.

We happily purchase a wide range of vehicles and take any drivable car on trade, however, there are some that we do not appraise or purchase. It could be out of our price range or it could be a vehicle we are not able to sell on our website. Certain vehicles that have costly repairs or extensive damage we are also unable to purchase.

At Clutch, we pride ourselves on providing firm offers online. In some cases where undisclosed damage or discrepancies from the condition option selected are discovered during inspection, it can have an impact on your offer. To ensure fairness and accuracy, we offer three condition options for evaluating your car: excellent, good, and poor. Choosing the excellent condition indicates a car with no imperfections, both inside and out. The good condition allows for normal wear without major cosmetic issues. Opting for the poor condition implies the presence of several cosmetic problems that would require repair.

We also take into consideration the accuracy of the accident claims provided compared to the CARFAX history. If there are discrepancies between the two, it may result in a deduction from the initial offer.

If you're not sure about whether damage on your vehicle might change your offer, simply take a few pictures and send them to offers@clutch.ca, we'll let you know if there is an adjustment required. In any case, if you're not happy with an adjustment made, you can walk away without penalty at any point in the Clutch process.

Instant payment is available 9 am - 4 pm, Monday - Friday via e-transfer for most financial institutions. All other payments are made via electronic funds transfer (EFT) and are usually deposited by the next day, although some may take up to three business days depending on your financial institution. You will also have a binding Bill of Sale signed by yourself and Clutch, a confirmation lien amount to be paid off (if applicable), and the remaining amount to be deposited in your bank account. If applicable, payment can take up to 3 weeks to the lien holder.

If you have a loan on the car that you're selling, Clutch will pay off the loan and deduct it from the value of our offer. Loans can take up to 3 weeks to be processed, depending on the lender.
