A CLEAR NEXT STEP
Tell us what's left in the car.
For a car at the end of its life, what's still in it decides the price. Send us the details and we'll come back with an offer.
MELBOURNE · CAR WRECKERS
What a wrecker looks at.
When a car is past repairing, the value is in what's left. These are the details that matter:
Please tell us
- Make, model, year and variant
- Engine and transmission, and whether they're still in the car
- What's damaged or failed
- Whether the car is complete
- Any parts already removed
- Where it is and whether it rolls
You don't need to be exact. Describe what you can see and send photos, and we'll fill in the rest.
Tell us about your car02 · CARS THAT SUIT WRECKING
Cars at the end of the road.
We buy cars with blown engines, failed gearboxes, accident damage, flood or fire damage, rust, hail damage and cars that have simply stopped being worth fixing. That includes unregistered cars and cars that have been parked up for years.
Cars, 4WDs, utes and vans are all considered.
03 · COMPLETE OR INCOMPLETE
Why completeness matters.
A car with its engine, transmission and major components still in place is worth more than one that's been stripped. Missing parts reduce the price, but they don't always rule the car out.
A car missing a few parts, such as a battery or wheels, can still be assessed. A bare shell with the engine and major components removed is not something we buy. If you've already taken parts off, tell us what's gone.
04 · HOW A QUOTE IS REVIEWED
How a wrecked car is priced.
For a car at the end of its life, the offer reflects what's left in it:
- The make, model and year
- Whether it's complete
- The extent of the damage
- The value of the parts and metal
- How easy it is to collect
The quote is free. Ask questions, compare other options, and decide in your own time.
05 · COLLECTION
We collect, so you don't have to move it.
Free removal is included when we buy your car. A car that won't start can still be collected, and you don't pay for towing.
Tell us whether the wheels roll and steer, and anything about access, such as a steep driveway, a gate or a shared car park. Same-day pickup is possible when our schedule and the car's location allow it.
06 · LOCAL SERVICE
Car wreckers across Melbourne.
We buy cars for wrecking across Melbourne. Include your suburb in the quote form and we'll confirm we can collect from you.
07 · WRECK OR REPAIR
Is it time to let the car go?
If a repair costs more than the car is worth, if the engine or gearbox has failed, or if the car has been written off or is simply no longer safe or practical, selling it as it is can be the sensible option.
If you're weighing it up, send us the details and any repair quote you have. An offer gives you a figure to compare with the cost of fixing it. You don't need to pay for a diagnosis to ask.
08 · PAYMENT
Paid by bank transfer.
You're paid by bank transfer once the sale is completed. At pickup we check the car and your photo ID, finish the paperwork and send the payment to your account. Have your bank details ready.
09 · PAPERWORK
Ownership and finance.
For a car at the end of its life, we still need:
- Photo ID
- Something that shows you own the car, or can sell it for the owner
- The keys, if you have them
Finance owing has to be cleared before we can buy the car. If the car belonged to a family member, tell us when you call and we'll explain what to have ready.
12 · FAQS
Questions about selling to wreckers.
Q1. Will you take a car that doesn't run?
Yes. Tell us whether the wheels roll and the steering moves, and how we reach the car. Photos help.
Q2. How much do wreckers pay for a car?
It depends on the make, model, year and condition, whether the car is complete, and the value of the parts and metal. We need the details to give a figure, so send them through. The quote is free.
Q3. Is pickup free?
Free removal is included when we buy your car.
Q4. Can I sell a car with a blown engine?
Yes. Tell us the problem and whether the engine is still in the car. A car with a failed engine is still priced on what's left.
Q5. What if the car was in an accident or written off?
We look at accident-damaged cars. Photos of the damage and the whole car help. If an insurance claim is involved, check you're allowed to sell the car first.
Q6. Do you buy unregistered cars?
Yes. You can ask for a quote without a roadworthy certificate. Ownership, or authority to sell, still needs to be shown.
Q7. What if parts are missing?
A car missing a few parts can still be assessed. Bare shells are the exception.
Q8. Do I get paid?
Yes. By bank transfer once the sale is completed.
Q9. Can I sell a car with finance?
Any finance owing must be paid out before we can buy. Ask your lender for the payout amount.
Q10. How soon can you collect?
Same-day collection depends on our schedule and where the car is, and calling early improves your chances.
