We collect it and pay you on the spot
Our truck comes to you. We check the car matches the description, we lodge the VicRoads transfer together, and the money lands before we leave.
What your car is roughly worth to us
Indicative starting points. The final quote depends on make, year, weight and what still works.
Does not start, scrap or parts
Dead engines, failed gearboxes, rust, flood damage. We still want it.
Runs, but needs work

Runs and drives, registered
You would rather have the money today than list it, field texts and haggle at the kerb.
Straight answers about selling a car in Melbourne
All articles
Can you sell a car without a roadworthy certificate in Victoria?
Yes, and there are two clean ways to do it. What an RWC covers, when you need one, and how towing sidesteps it.
Transferring a car's registration in Victoria: what the seller has to do
Why the seller's notice of disposal matters more than the buyer's, and what keeps arriving in your letterbox if you skip it.
What a scrap car is actually worth in Melbourne, and what moves the number
Weight, steel prices, the catalytic converter and parts demand. What goes into a scrap offer, and why it is paid by transfer, not notes.
Private sale, trade-in or car buyer: which pays more for an old car in Melbourne?
An honest comparison for cars worth under a few thousand dollars, and when each option is the right call.
Ask us anything
Is everything really free?
Yes. The quote, the towing anywhere in Melbourne and the paperwork. Nothing is deducted from the number we text you.
How do I get paid?
By instant bank transfer, at pickup, before the truck leaves. Victorian scrap metal law does not allow cash payments for scrap vehicles, so any buyer who promises notes is either paying by transfer anyway or breaking the rules. You will see the money land while the driver is still in your driveway.
How do you work out the price?
Running cars are priced on what they would resell for. Everything else is priced on reusable parts, the catalytic converter and battery, and scrap weight. A real person looks at every car, no automated lowball.
Do I need a roadworthy certificate or rego?
No. We buy unregistered cars, cars that would never pass a roadworthy, and cars with expired rego. We tow, so the car never has to be road legal, and we handle the VicRoads paperwork.
What happens to the car?
Running cars are tidied up and resold. The rest are stripped for reusable parts, then the shell is recycled as scrap steel. Fluids and batteries are disposed of properly.
How soon can you pick it up?
Across Melbourne, usually the same day if you accept the quote before midday, otherwise the next day. You pick a window that suits you.
