A Milwaukee junk car buyer since 2014.

KMK Towing & Recovery started in March 2014. In December 2014 we moved into the yard at 8517 W Kaul Ave in Milwaukee, and we have worked from there ever since. Keith Kwitek owns the business, and he buys the cars and books the pickups himself.

What we do has not changed in all that time. We buy junk, scrap, salvage, crashed and non-running vehicles, and today we buy across Milwaukee, Waukesha, Ozaukee, Washington, Racine and Kenosha counties. You are paid cash on the spot, and the pickup is free, usually the same day you call. Every quote already includes picking the car up and taking it away, so there is no second number once the truck is in your driveway.

In Keith's own words, the business runs on hard work, dedication, remaining positive no matter what, communicating with customers on a professional level and being 100% fair. Fair means the price you hear on the call is the price you get.

There are junk car buyers around Milwaukee who quote high on the phone and then find reasons to lower the number once they are standing next to the car. Keith built KMK to be the opposite of that. He asks you six things on the call, gives you a number, and that number is what you get when the car is picked up.

Three people deal with you. Keith buys the cars and schedules every pickup. Marvin and Nick are the drivers. The truck comes out to the car, loads it and takes it away.

The sellers KMK is built for are in a tight spot. Some are stuck at the side of the road with a car that will not move again and no money to fix it. Others are moving house and need a broken-down car out of the garage or off the property before the keys change hands. Some have a car that has sat behind the house for years and finally want it gone. The answer is the same for all of them: call, get a number, pick a time, and the car is gone.

We can often buy a car without a title or without a key, as long as you can show the car is yours. KMK asks for the registration in your name, or proof of insurance on that vehicle in your name, so you know before anyone drives out.

Keith wants three words to come to mind after you have dealt with KMK: kind, courteous and professional. Straight to the point is the fourth. You will not be upsold or hurried. Our Google rating sits at 4.8 from 506 reviews, and the reviews keep saying the same things: a quick call back, a fair number, cash on the spot, and the car gone the same day.
