Instant cash for any unwanted car & free removals

1800 Salvage is an Australian-wide auto salvage and removal company. We specialise in evaluating, buying and salvaging all vehicle types. Whether you're looking to sell an old van taking up valuable garage space, a vintage motorbike or a worn-out forklift, we’re here to help.

From the moment you contact us until our tow truck drivers drive away, our Chermside’s cash-for-cars team handle everything, so you don’t have to worry. Send us some photos and general vehicle details via our online quote form, and we’ll provide a competitive price within minutes.

Our experienced team can work with you to manage all paperwork and organise your free towing service on the same or the next business day. You’ll receive instant money transfers via Osko upon pick-up. It’s that easy.

Don’t let that old automobile take up valuable front yard space any longer. Contact us today for a free quote, and let us help you to get rid of it.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

Do I need to hand in my registration?

Yes, we buy all vehicles unregistered and don’t require a registration transfer. Remove your plates before collection to avoid confusion. You will need to complete the cancellation of the registration form (F3517). Take this form and your number plates to your local Department of Transport and Main Roads for a refund on any remaining registration.

FAQ icon

Does 1800 Salvage buy or sell auto parts?

No, we exclusively purchase whole vehicles. Our friendly professionals can also connect you with nearby automotive wreckers for spare parts disposal and scrap metal recycling. We also facilitate connections to local auto components businesses if you want to buy car parts.

FAQ icon

Will 1800 Salvage beat another offer I have?

If you can provide this offer in writing, we encourage you to share it with our cash-for-cars Chermside team. Our professionals will thoroughly assess it and do their best to surpass it. We are dedicated to making the selling process as seamless and rewarding as possible.

FAQ icon

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

We sure can. Thanks to our trusted transport network across the country, we efficiently retrieve all scrap vehicles taking up your valuable space. Our extensive partnership ensures that we can seamlessly arrange free towing services no matter where you are located.

FAQ icon

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

Not at all. We will manage and monitor payment times and book your car removal following this. Generally, the processing of basic direct transfers occurs on the next business day. This ensures you receive your well-deserved compensation in a timely manner, adding to our services' convenience and overall reliability.
