Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

I’m just after free car removal services. Can you help?

Of course! Thanks to our nationwide transport partners, we can help remove all unwanted cars taking up your valuable space. Call our team to discuss your situation, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

FAQ icon

Can you pay cash in hand for my car?

No, the current legislation prohibits cash exchange in this scenario. We also find Osko payments to be a safer and more secure payment method for all parties involved. Get in touch with our customer service professionals to discuss payment options further.

FAQ icon

What should I expect from my free quote?

Our obligation-free quote includes an upfront purchase price valid for 14 days, giving you ample time to consider your options. The quote includes all associated costs, so no hidden fees or towing charges exist. In some cases, if the removal expenses exceed your vehicle’s value, we will inform you and invoice you a subsidised collection fee.

FAQ icon

I want to sell my old car quickly. How fast will you buy it?

1800 Salvage can work with you to provide a same-day quote, usually within the hour. From there, we can complete the necessary paperwork (which you can complete from the comfort of your own home) and aim to pick up your vehicle within 24 hours or the next business day.

FAQ icon

Can you pick up my vehicle today?

There are certain situations where we can offer same-day removal of your car. This depends on when we finalise the contract, your vehicle's location and availability from our tow truck providers. Let us know as soon as possible if our same-day service is required. We will always do our best to accommodate you.

FAQ icon

Does 1800 Salvage buy auto parts, too?

No. We only buy cars that are whole. We can give you an estimate for the spare parts or scrap metal you may have. Our friendly team can also connect you with a car wrecker or recycling facility in the wider Queensland area so that you can dispose of your spare parts in an eco-friendly manner.
