Cash for cars of all conditions

We give scrap cars a new life

At 1800 Salvage, we’re all about keeping second-hand car parts moving around Australia! We team up with wholesalers, repairers, car wreckers, and auction houses to do just that.

When you choose to sell your car to us, you’re helping to reintroduce existing steel into the market, which means less mining and manufacturing—great news for our local wildlife and ecosystems! Plus, you’re keeping cars out of landfills and getting cash in your pocket fast. If you’re looking for an easy and environmentally friendly way to sell your car, call 1800 Salvage.

Instant payment for your scrap car with Osko

Have you been stung by long transfer periods or pending funds? We know how frustrating waiting for money to hit your account can be. That's why we utilise the instant payment program, Osko (bPay), which ensures you get paid cash within minutes, not days.

At the time of your car removal, the tow truck driver will check that your car condition matches your description and then inform the head office to release payment. You can say goodbye to your old car and hello to more money!

Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

Do you offer free car removal?

Yes, we do! Thanks to your network of transport partners, we can offer free collection for any vehicle, no matter where you're located. Get in touch with one of our friendly team members, and we’d be glad to assist.

FAQ icon

Why should I sell my car to you when I could make more selling privately on Facebook Marketplace or carsales.com.au?

If you have the time, budget, and negotiation skills to get the results you want, that’s great! But many of our customers find it much easier to skip the hassle of time wasters and high advertising costs that come with selling privately. We’re here to make the process smoother for you!

FAQ icon

Do you buy or sell auto parts?

At 1800 Salvage, we exclusively purchase vehicles. However, our friendly team can connect you with the best car wreckers in the Greater Sydney area for spare parts disposal. We can also help you find local auto businesses if you want to buy car parts.

FAQ icon

Should I hand in my registration?

Yes, we buy unregistered vehicles, so we don’t require a registration transfer. Please remove your plates before collection to avoid confusion. You will need to complete the cancellation of the registration form (F3517). Take this form and your vehicle's number plates to a transport and motoring customer service centre. Remember that you may be eligible for a refund for any remaining time left on your registration.

FAQ icon

Can I give you the code so the tow driver can remove it from my garage?

If our tow driver goes into your garage, it might look like they’re trying to take your bike, which could raise some eyebrows. To keep everything smooth and avoid any misunderstandings, we’d really appreciate it if you could be there during the removal. Thanks for your understanding!
