Frequently asked questions
We only purchase whole vehicles. However, our experienced scrap car buyers can provide an estimate for your car parts or scrap metal. We can also connect you with car and truck wreckers, Emerald or nearby, who can dispose of your spare parts in an eco-friendly manner.
All our instant quotes remain valid for 14 Days. We appreciate that you may need more time, and we can re-evaluate it later if necessary.
1800 Salvage can provide a same-day quote, usually within the hour. From there, we can support you with the required paperwork, and our removal service will collect your vehicle within 24 hours or at your convenience.
Our vast network of trusted transport providers lets us access and buy vehicles from all Australian states without any hassle.
As a licensed motor vehicle dealer, 1800 Salvage generally cannot purchase any vehicle still under finance. We can help you remove any encumbrance you have. Sometimes our vehicle purchase offer is larger than your amount owing. If, in this case, we receive a valid payout letter from your finance company, we can handle contract payouts and transfer the remaining funds to you. If it is the same amount owing to remove encumbrance, we can pay your finance in exchange for your used car.
Our experienced car-buying team closely follows the national automotive market from wholesale market trends and auction results. We provide the highest price possible in the current market and stay competitive to keep our customers happy.
