Free car removal Sydney
Old, broken down, and damaged vehicles aren’t just an eye-sore; they’re a drain on the value of everything around them. There’s no point in having an old junk car hogging up your garage space or rusting in the backyard. At that point, they can also become dangerous to you, your staff, or even children and pets.
Not only can we provide car removals for free across Sydney, but we can also tow your scrap car away within 24 hours. Let us know what’s best for you, and we’ll make it work.
It’s not just cars. We’ll pay cash for any unwanted vehicle in Sydney
Paying cash for Sydney’s damaged cars is our speciality. But why limit ourselves? We’ll happily pay cash for your outdated fleet of business vans and trucks. We’ll also pay for old motorbikes and machinery like forklifts and diggers.
Whether it’s in repairable condition or if it’s a total statutory write-off, or even an unregistered vehicle, we’ll be happy to take it off your hands. That means we’re also glad to buy from any seller, private individuals, insurance assessors, and panel beaters.

Unfortunately, no. 1800 is a licensed motor car trader, and therefore cannot salvage vehicles under finance.
However, we can still provide our scrap car removal service while the financial obligation remains with you. That way, you won’t have to worry about your scrap vehicle taking up your space. To do this, we would submit a salvage tender on your behalf to your finance company. Contact our team to discuss this process.
