Is the towing really free?

Yes. The run out from Rocklea is not a line item, and it is not shaved off after you accept. Engines that turn over and engines that do not are both paid. Name a collecting day, Saturday included. The meeting point can be a house, a workplace or a repair shop. Cash, or a transfer, changes hands while the vehicle is still on your ground.

Tell us where it is and choose a time that suits you. You're paid on pickup, with no towing fees taken off your price.

How fast can you pick up in Brisbane?

Pickups are usually within a day or two. Rocklea sits on the south side of Brisbane. You set the time, Monday to Saturday. A firm price is usually within the hour.

What we pay for cars in Brisbane

Every car gets its own price. We look at the make, model, year and kilometres, whether it runs, the condition of the engine, gearbox and panels, and what scrap metal is worth this week. A late-model car that runs is worth the most, but even a rusted-out wreck has value in its parts and metal.

Tell us about the car and we'll give you a firm price, usually within the hour. The price we quote is the price we pay when the car is as described. Nothing comes off for towing.

Wondering how much is my scrap car worth? Our current Brisbane guide sets out the ranges.

Cars we buy across Brisbane

We buy sedans, hatchbacks, 4WDs, SUVs, utes, vans and trucks, from every make: Toyota, Holden, Ford, Mazda, Hyundai, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Kia and the rest. Running or not, registered or not.

That includes crashed and written-off cars, flood and hail damaged cars, cars that failed a roadworthy, cars with a blown engine or no keys, and old cars that have been sitting in the backyard for years.

We also collect cars with no keys or no wheels.

Free car removal, usually within a day or two

Our yard is in Rocklea, on Brisbane's southside, so a tow truck or tilt tray is usually at your place within a day or two. We pick up from houses, units, workshops, car parks and the roadside, Monday to Saturday.

More about our free car removal Brisbane service.

Paperwork and rego when you sell

Have your photo ID and proof of ownership ready, such as the rego papers. The car shouldn't have finance owing on it. We pay you in cash or by bank transfer before the car leaves, and give you a receipt.

After pickup, cancel the registration with Transport and Main Roads (you can do it online) and you may get a refund on the rego you haven't used. Then cancel your insurance.

How do I get paid?

Settlement is notes in hand or a transfer into your account, completed at collection, and you leave with a receipt. Queensland sellers pick which of those two. Across the border, including around Tweed Heads, scrap-vehicle rules bar notes, so only a transfer is used. The drive is not subtracted from that settlement.

More about selling your car
Who pays the most cash for cars in Brisbane?

Compare a few quotes, and check whether towing comes off the price. We buy, wreck and recycle cars from our own Rocklea yard, so we can pay for usable parts as well as the metal, and our towing is always free.

Do you buy cars all over Brisbane?

Yes. Northside, southside, the western suburbs and the bayside, plus Logan and Ipswich. Our yard is in Rocklea, so Brisbane pickups are usually within a day or two.

How much will I get for my car?

It depends on the make, model, year, condition, and what parts and scrap metal are worth at the moment. Tell us about the car and we'll give you a firm price, usually within the hour. There are no towing fees taken off.

Do you buy cars that don't run?

Yes. We buy cars that run and cars that don't, plus crashed, flood-damaged, unregistered, rusty and scrap cars. We buy trucks too, from light trucks to heavy rigids.

Is the towing really free?

Yes. Pickup is free anywhere in our service areas, and we never take the cost of towing off your price.

How do I get paid?

In cash or by bank transfer, your choice, when we pick the car up and before it leaves. In NSW (including Tweed Heads) the law doesn't allow cash for scrap vehicles, so it's bank transfer there.

What paperwork do I need?

Photo ID (driver's licence or passport) and proof of ownership, like the rego papers. If you've lost the papers, tell us. We can usually still sort it out.

How quickly can you pick it up?

Usually within a day or two. You choose the time, Monday to Saturday.

What happens to the car?

Anything usable gets pulled and resold, the fluids are drained and disposed of properly, and the rest goes to a metal recycler.

Do I need to cancel my rego and insurance?

Yes. Once we've collected the car, cancel both. You may get a refund on unused rego. We'll give you a receipt for your records.
