The easiest way to sell your car in Higgins

Looking to sell your car but not sure where to start?  At 1800 Salvage, we provide a simple selling service that reduces the confusion and unnecessary steps that can come with a private car sale. Whether you want rid of an unwanted car or are keen to upgrade your used car to something newer, we’ll complete the sale with ease. 

To get started, simply send us your vehicle details using the form on our website, or call one of our buyers. With a 100% online process, we can give your vehicle a valuation, assess the condition and compare it against current market data to produce an honest and fair offer. 

When you’re ready to accept our offer, we’ll arrange free towing from wherever your Higgin’s vehicle is located. Our network of transport partners will complete a safe removal, and you’ll receive your funds instantly through a bank transfer, even before your vehicle is off your property. 

It really is that easy. Just contact us with a few details, and our team will take care of the rest.

Sell your car without a roadworthy 

To make selling your car as easy and convenient as possible, we accept vehicles in a wide range of states, including those that aren’t roadworthy. If the condition of your car makes it unable to drive, don’t worry about paying for repairs; sell your car fast with us instead.

  • No price ceiling for the amount of cash we'll pay for your car
  • Free towing from your residence or business
  • We offer cash for cars for all makes, models, ages and conditions.

Cash for cars of all conditions

Complete the sale fast with instant payment

When we buy your car, we make sure you can access your funds without delay. At collection, after a quick verification by our tow driver, we’ll release the funds straight into your account via a secure Osko transfer.

Canberra sellers who choose 1800 Salvage are never left in the dark when it comes to payment. Unlike private sales, as licensed buyers, our process never depends on trusting a stranger to follow through. You know exactly when and how you’ll receive your funds, giving you greater certainty from collection through to payment.

We’ll collect your car for free

If your vehicle isn’t safe or suitable for the road, selling it can be tricky - that’s where we come in. We’ll collect it directly from your property for free, regardless of its condition.

Our transport partners can safely remove damaged, non-running and unroadworthy vehicles, saving you the time, cost and hassle of organising transportation yourself. Whether it’s sitting in your driveway, garage or near the Higgins Woodland, we’ll arrange the collection for you.
