FAQ icon

How long are 1800 Salvage’s purchase quotes valid?

Every free quote is valid for 14 Days. However, we appreciate that selling your vehicle is a big decision, so if you need more time, we can re-evaluate it later. 

FAQ icon

How does 1800 Salvage provide top cash-for-cars offers?

Our Carlton cash-for-cars team follow the national automotive market closely.

This way, your vehicle’s condition doesn’t matter.

If you are the executor of the will and have the necessary paperwork to sell the vehicle.
