Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

Are your Townsville cash-for-cars offers negotiable?

All 1800 Salvage vehicle offers are firm and non-negotiable. Let us know if you think we’ve missed something in our quoting process, and we will modify it accordingly.

FAQ icon

My bank does not support Osko. Is this a problem?

Not at all. We can collaborate to manage payment times and ensure a hassle-free experience. Once you’re happy with our arrangement, we’ll book your free unwanted car removal. Basic direct transfers are often processed the following business day.

FAQ icon

Are you a car wrecker?

No, we specialise in purchasing used and salvaged vehicles. We do not dismantle vehicles for car parts retailing.

FAQ icon

My business has multiple scrap cars for collection. Can you help?

Yes, we work with commercial clients nationwide to assist in moving old stock and fleet vehicles. We can easily organise multiple vehicle collections through our transport partner’s larger car-carrier vehicles.

FAQ icon

What does 1800 Salvage do to stay environmentally friendly?

All cars recycled through our network get de-polluted. Our cash-for-cars Townsville service is environmentally beneficial because unused idle vehicles emit much pollution into the air. We also conduct eco-friendly car recycling through our extensive partner network.
