We pay cash and remove unwanted cars in Brisbane

For most people and businesses, there’s nothing worse than a rusted old clunker taking up valuable space in your garage or lot. We say for ‘most’ because looking out on a lot full of scrap cars is sort of our dream. 

1800 Salvage is Brisbane’s most trusted vehicle salvage specialist. If you’re ready to sell your car for cash in Brisbane, we’re prepared to pay you a premium price for it right now.

Not every car seems worth salvaging. You might have a statutory write-off that’s barely survived an accident and doesn’t seem worth much value. Or you may have a wheelless rustbucket car that needs to be removed. Our specialists know how to rescue, restore and repurpose practically anything that was once roadworthy. And, of course, we’ll pay an extremely competitive price.

If you’re a panel beater, insurer or private individual needing scrap car removal in the Brisbane region, call us. Let’s turn your unwanted cars into a tidy profit.

Easy cash for your car

Easily remove an unwanted vehicle from your property with 1800 Salvage. Once you’ve completed the digital paperwork, we can arrange a towing service to your location and transfer the money to your bank account after collection. Turn your outdated car into profit with a click of a button. 

  • No price ceiling for the amount of cash we'll pay for your car
  • Free towing from your residence or business
  • We offer car removals for all makes, models, ages and conditions.
