Frequently asked questions
We only purchase whole vehicles. However, we’ll give you a rough estimate of any spare parts or scrap metal you may have. Our expert team can also connect you with local car wreckers, Carrum Downs or nearby to help you dispose of the parts in an eco-friendly manner.
All our free quotes are valid for 14 Days. However, we appreciate that selling vehicles is a big decision, so if you need more time, we can re-evaluate it later.
We do not require a roadworthy unlike selling your unwanted car privately, which requires an up-to-date roadworthy certificate.
As a licensed motor vehicle dealer, 1800 Salvage generally cannot purchase vehicles still under finance. However, we can help you remove any encumbrance you have. Sometimes, our cash offer exceeds the amount you owe. If we receive a valid payout letter from your finance company, we’ll transfer the remaining funds to you. If it is the same amount due to remove encumbrance, we can pay your finance in exchange for your damaged car.
If you are the will's executor and have the necessary paperwork to sell the vehicle, we can purchase it from the authorised party.
