We pay cash fast

As a family-owned and operated business, we know how important trust and reliability are, especially in the car industry. While other buyers in the private market may prod, haggle, or delay payments, we deliver on time and in full. That’s why an instant cash policy backs every transaction we make.

Using Osko (BPAY), we pay for every unwanted car we purchase at the time of collection. We’ll transfer the funds directly into your account, which can be accessed in seconds. This level of convenience and reliability demonstrates our commitment to our customers and creates a peace of mind a private sale does not guarantee.

If you’re interested in making quick cash on your unwanted vehicle, 1800 Salvage has a solution for you. When you deal with us, you can say goodbye to time-wasting and second-guessing your sale. Fill out our online form, and one of our professionals will contact you shortly afterwards.

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

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

Of course! Thanks to our nationwide transport partners, we can help remove all unwanted cars taking up your valuable space. Simply contact our team, and we will be happy to arrange your free pick-up at a time that is convenient for you.

FAQ icon

My business has multiple scrap cars for collection. Can you assist?

Yes, 1800 Salvage works with many clients to assist in moving commercial vehicles and fleets of various sizes. Whether you’re clearing out old stock or downsizing, we can help. We can also organise multiple collections through our transport partners' larger car carriers.

FAQ icon

Why is selling my car through a licensed motor car dealer safer?

All licenced motor car buyers are regulated by Business Licencing Australia. Your transactions, identification and personal data are protected as we comply with all licensing rules. Be very careful dealing with any other automotive car-buying companies that aren’t licenced, as it is often a scam.

FAQ icon

Does my car need a roadworthy for you to buy it?

Not at all. We do not require a roadworthy and will pay instant cash for your old car on the spot. This saves you time and money compared to selling your car privately, which will require an up-to-date roadworthy certificate.
