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 consists of 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

Do you buy vehicles out of regional locations?

Our extensive network of transport providers helps us access and buy cars and all vehicle types from the most remote locations around Australia.

FAQ icon

What do you do with my car once I sell it to you?

1800 Salvage works with a network of car wreckers, wholesalers, repairers, and auction houses to keep the second-hand vehicle market moving in Australia. We connect trusted automotive businesses within Australia to the vehicle parts they need.

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

What if I change my mind after accepting your offer?

There’s no pressure. We do our best to provide the best cash-for-cars Queenstown service possible. You can change your mind as long as our contract of sale has not yet been signed. Once our contract is signed, there will be an obligation to sell. However, we will work with you to arrive at a positive result regardless of where we’re in the process.

FAQ icon

How does 1800 Salvage provide top dollar for my vehicle?

We follow the automotive market closely, from wholesale market trends and auction results. We provide the best price possible in the current market and stay competitive to keep our customers happy.
