About Us

Serving Des Moines Since 1962

Solar Loan & Sales has been part of Des Moines for over six decades. Generations of neighbors have walked through our doors to pawn, sell, or shop — and we've always tried to make the experience straightforward, honest, and neighborly.

We're proud to be an independent, locally owned shop on Ingersoll Avenue. Whether you need a short-term loan against something valuable, want to turn an unused item into cash, or just love hunting for a great find, you're welcome here.
