We buy all unwanted vehicles

Are you looking to upgrade your old hatch for an SUV to accommodate a growing family? Or maybe you want to offload some work vans to make room for new ones? Whatever your situation, 1800 Salvage has a scrap car solution for you. We also make purchase offers on other kinds of transport, including trucks, forklifts, boats, and recreational and commercial vehicles. If it was once-roadworthy, we’re interested.

Our process prioritises simplicity and your convenience. Unlike many private buyers, we purchase automobiles in as-is condition. This means you don’t need to move your schedule around for inspections or needlessly spend on costly certificates. Our auto-buying experts can make remote appraisals via our innovative desktop assessment system, meaning you can get a valuation in a matter of clicks.

Consult with our friendly staff today to receive a free quote and learn why we are North Lakes’ number one used car buyer.

Sell your old car quickly

Thanks to our digital sales platform, we can send you a competitive price within an hour of your enquiry. From there, we can complete the sale hassle-free within 24-48 hours.

  • No price ceiling for the amount of cash we'll pay for your car

Frequently asked questions

FAQ icon

What should I expect from my free quote?

Our no-obligation appraisal 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 charges or towing fees exist. In some cases, if the removal expenses exceed your vehicle’s value, we will inform you and invoice you a subsidised collection bill.

FAQ icon

Does 1800 Salvage buy auto parts, too?

Unfortunately, we only buy cars. We can give you an estimate for the spare parts or scrap metal you may have. Our friendly team can also connect you with local junk car wreckers in the wider Brisbane area so that you can engage in the proper recycling process.

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 any unwanted cars in North Lakes that are taking up your valuable space. Simply fill out our online form, and we can organise collection at a time that suits you.

FAQ icon

Why should I sell my junk car to 1800 Salvage, not a dealer?

No other vehicle buyer in Australia has the technology or experienced technicians to provide our customers with a fast, convenient and hassle-free service. Just read our reviews, and you’ll see why! We take great pride in our work and let it speak for itself.

FAQ icon

How does 1800 Salvage provide the best price for my unwanted car?

We closely follow the automobile industry, starting with wholesale trends and auction results. Our buying experts have a thorough understanding of these fluctuations and understand how to navigate a fluid market. We provide the best price possible in the current economy and stay competitive to keep our customers happy.
