Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

How will I be paid for my salvage car in Adelaide?

Our secure and easy process ensures that cash for your unwanted vehicle is deposited directly into your bank account. 

All of our paperwork is digitally signed to enable the fastest turnaround possible. We pay you electronically before pick up, and transactions are generally completed by the next business day.

FAQ icon

Will you buy an unregistered car for cash in Adelaide?

Yes. Vehicles are not required to be registered for our team to buy and pick up. 

Once we have purchased your unwanted vehicle, you can collect any reimbursement by taking your licence plates and paperwork to Service SA.

FAQ icon

Can you pick up my vehicle from a multi-storey car park?

Yes. We have the facilities to pick up vehicles from anywhere in Adelaide, including multi-storey car parks. Contact us today, and we will arrange a time convenient for you.

FAQ icon

What information does your Adelaide team need about my car?

We need your contact details, vehicle address, registration status, and a brief description of the damage. 

So we can give you the best price possible, also include your vehicle's make and model, registration number, and odometer reading along with some photos. Photos of all four corners of your vehicle, the interior seating and dash, and any points of damage or scratches are most helpful. Fill in our straightforward form, and we'll do the rest for you.

FAQ icon

My Adelaide vehicle is still under finance. Will you still buy it?

1800 Salvage is a licensed motor car trader, so we cannot purchase vehicles under finance. 

To help free you of your damaged, unwanted, or scrap vehicle, we can submit a salvage tender to your finance company on your behalf. Give us a call, and a member of our reliable team will talk you through this simple process.
