Cash for cars — how selling to us works
We buy cars, utes, 4WDs, SUVs, vans and trucks, running or not. You get a cash offer, we collect the vehicle for free, and you're paid by cash or bank transfer when we arrive.

A straight answer on your vehicle
Selling privately means listings, viewings and people who don't turn up. Selling to us is one conversation. Call 0800 822 335, tell us about the vehicle, and you'll know what we'll pay before you agree to anything.
What vehicles we buy
Most vehicles that are no longer worth keeping, repairing or selling privately.
- Cars and hatchbacks
- Utes and 4WDs
- SUVs
- Vans
- Light and commercial trucks
- Old, scrap and end-of-life vehicles
What conditions we accept
Damaged, accident-damaged, broken-down and non-running vehicles are all fine. We buy cars with or without a WOF, whether registered or deregistered. Rust, flood damage and expensive mechanical faults don't rule a vehicle out.
We don't buy bare shells or vehicles with an incomplete engine or transmission.
How we work out the price
Every offer is based on the actual vehicle. We look at the make, model and year, the overall condition, whether it runs, whether any parts are missing, and where it needs to be collected from. Photos help us price it accurately, so add a few to the quote form if you can.
Getting your quote
Call us or send the quote form with your details. We'll come back to you with an offer, usually the same day. There's no obligation to accept.
Collection and payment
Once you accept, we book a pickup time. Collection is free and same-day pickup is often possible. When our truck arrives we check the vehicle, sight your paperwork and pay you by cash or bank transfer — whichever suits you — before loading it.
What you'll need
You must be the owner of the vehicle. Please have these ready on the day:
- Photo ID (driver licence or passport)
- Proof of ownership, such as the registration or ownership papers
- The keys, if you have them

Common questions
Do you buy cars that don't run?
Yes. Non-running vehicles are a big part of what we collect. Our trucks can load cars that won't start or roll on their own.
Do you buy scrap cars?
Yes, scrap and end-of-life cars are fine. We don't buy bare shells or vehicles with an incomplete engine or transmission.
How much is my car worth?
It depends on the make, model, year, condition, whether it runs and whether parts are missing. Send us those details (photos help) and we'll give you a firm cash offer.
Do I need to own the vehicle?
Yes. You'll need photo ID and proof of ownership, such as the registration or ownership papers. Please have the keys ready if you have them.
What happens when you collect my vehicle?
We check the vehicle matches the description, sight your ID and ownership papers, pay you by cash or bank transfer (your choice), then load the vehicle and take it away.
