Serving Olds Drivers
Olds has more jobs than residents. The Town says its economy is driven by agriculture and agri-food, education and research, and manufacturing, and it has a 35-bed hospital; the provincial numbers show about 1,540 more people working here than living here, the 13th-highest net inflow in Alberta. If you are one of the people who commute in, the drive is part of the job, and a vehicle that starts in January is not optional. A consumer proposal, a rough patch with collections or a thin history from years of cash work can sit on top of steady pay, and steady pay is what we look at first. Applying takes an online form from your couch; we review it, call you back, and bring the vehicle up Highway 2 to Olds, about 65 km from our Airdrie lot.
Buying from Olds? A good place to start is bad-credit car loans or in-house financing.
Distance from Airdrie: about 65 km, 45–50 minutes

Olds Car Buying FAQs
I work at the college or in agri-food near Olds. Does that count as steady income?
A payroll job counts as income wherever it is. Lenders want to see how long you have been paid and what lands in your account, so send recent pay stubs. If your hours rise and fall with the school year or the growing season, lenders often look at a longer stretch of your pay.
Can I apply if I only started my Olds job a few months ago?
Often, yes. A newer job can be reviewed with your first pay stubs, and your offer letter helps as a supporting document. Some lenders like to see a few months of history. We will tell you plainly what your file needs before you apply, so you are not guessing.
What happens on delivery day in Olds?
Olds is about 65 km up Highway 2. Our own staff deliver it, and all the paperwork is done remotely. We agree the day once your application is reviewed and you have picked a vehicle, then someone from our team drives it to your address.
Which registry do I use for plates in Olds?
We can register the vehicle for you, so you don't need a trip to a registry office. If you would rather go yourself, Olds has a registry agent at 6-5219 50 Avenue, where plates and registration are handled. Hours vary, so check before you go, especially if you are coming off a shift.
I live on an acreage outside Olds. Do you still deliver?
Yes. Our delivery radius covers the country around Olds, not only the town. Tell us the road and any gate or yard instructions when we book. For gravel roads and unplowed lanes, a half-ton or an all-wheel-drive SUV makes sense.
