Frequently asked questions
No. We only buy whole vehicles, such as old cars. However, our friendly cash-for-cars Hawthorne team can connect you with local car wreckers in the Brisbane area so that you can dispose of your spare parts in an eco-friendly manner.
In certain situations, we offer same-day car removal. It all depends on when we finalise the contract, your vehicle's location and the availability of our tow truck providers. Please let us know if our same-day service is required as soon as possible. We will always do our best to accommodate you.
1800 Salvage works with a nationwide network of reputable wholesalers, repairers, car wreckers and auction houses to keep Australia’s second-hand vehicle and parts market flowing. We specialise in connecting trusted automotive businesses to the vehicles and parts they need.
If you have described your Hawthorne vehicle correctly, 1800 Salvage’s buying team will pay the quoted price. Please let us know if the information you gave us needs to be corrected so we can revise the offer.
Not at all. We do not require a roadworthy certificate. This saves you time, money and the headache of private sales. Note that if you sell your Hawthorne car privately, it will require an up-to-date roadworthy certificate.
