A lead broker sells your phone number and takes a cut before anyone even looks at the car. We are the yard. Our yard is in Pontiac, so this is the shortest tow we make all day — most Pontiac pickups happen within a couple of hours of the call. Because we part out the vehicle ourselves, we can pay for the drivetrain, the catalytic converter, the wheels and the clean body panels instead of a flat scrap number.
