Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

Do you buy auto parts?

We only buy whole vehicles. However, we can give a price estimation for your car parts. As part of our excellent cash-for-cars service can connect you to local scrap metal dealers or car wreckers near Elwood who can purchase or dispose of the parts sustainably. 

FAQ icon

How will I be paid for my old car?

1800 Salvage’s simple and safe digital process means we have the fastest turnaround possible. Your cash payment is deposited directly into your bank account via Osko. Transactions take only 30 seconds to clear. 

FAQ icon

Do you buy unregistered scrap cars in Elwood?

Yes. Vehicles need not be registered for our Elwood team to buy and collect them. Once we’ve purchased your car, you can collect any reimbursement owed by taking your licence plates and paperwork to Vic Roads.

FAQ icon

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

Our convenient cash-for-cars Elwood service offers free removals from any location, including multi-storey car parks. Contact us today to book a tow.

FAQ icon

My scrap car 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. Call us, and our experienced team will talk you through this simple process.

FAQ icon

Does my junk car need a roadworthy certificate for you to buy it?

We don’t require a roadworthy certificate. This way, we save you time and money compared to selling privately which requires an up-to-date roadworthy certificate.
