Scrap car removal

Paid pickup for old, damaged or unwanted cars.

Your scrap car is still worth something

Turn unwanted metal and parts into a paid pickup.

Full details

A car that isn't worth fixing still has value in its metal and parts. We'll give you a price based on what it's worth today, tow it away for free, and make sure it's recycled properly.

Rust, missing parts, flat tyres, no keys. Tell us about it and we'll still make you an offer.

What counts as a scrap car

If it's not worth fixing or selling privately, it's a scrap car to us.

  • Rusted out
  • Written off
  • Doesn't run
  • Failed a roadworthy
  • Sitting for years
  • Stripped or incomplete
Full details
  • Rusted out. Body rust, rusted floors or a rusty chassis.
  • Written off. Insurance write-offs and cars with heavy crash damage.
  • Doesn't run. Blown engine, dead gearbox, flat battery or no keys.
  • Failed a roadworthy. When the repair quote is more than the car is worth.
  • Sitting for years. In a backyard, garage, shed or paddock, with or without rego.
  • Stripped or incomplete. Missing wheels, seats or parts is fine. Tell us what's there.

How we price a scrap car

Metal sets the floor. Usable parts add to it.

  • Metal
  • Parts
  • Make and model
  • No towing fee
Full details

Tell us the make, model, year and what's wrong with it, and we'll give you a firm price, usually within minutes. Photos help, so text a few through if you can.

  • Metal. The weight of the car and what scrap metal is worth this week set the minimum we'll pay.
  • Parts. A working engine, gearbox, panels or lights add value, because we pull and resell them.
  • Make and model. Popular models are worth more, because their parts are in demand.
  • No towing fee. The tow is free and never comes off your price.

Free scrap car removal across SEQ

From our Rocklea yard to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and the Tweed.

Full details

Our yard is in Rocklea, on Brisbane's southside, so scrap car pickups in Brisbane, Logan and Ipswich are often the same day. We also collect across the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and Tweed Heads, where we pay by bank transfer because NSW doesn't allow cash for scrap vehicles.

We bring a tilt tray and winch the car on, so it doesn't need to run, roll or have keys. Tell us about tight access, like a steep driveway or a car in the backyard, when you ask for a price.

What happens to your scrap car

Drained, stripped and recycled. Nothing dumped.

Full details

Back at the yard, the oil, coolant and fuel are drained and disposed of properly. Anything still usable is pulled and resold, and the shell goes to a metal recycler, so your old car doesn't end up in landfill.

Scrap car removal FAQs

Will I get paid for a scrap car?

Yes. Even a car that will never run again is worth something for its metal and parts. We pay you before we tow it away, and the tow is free.

Can you take a car with no keys or flat tyres?

Yes. We bring a tilt tray and winch it on. Let us know when you ask for a price so we bring the right truck.

Does a scrap car need to be registered?

No. We tow it, so it doesn't need rego or a roadworthy. You'll need photo ID and proof that the car is yours.

How quickly can you remove a scrap car?

Often the same day, and nearly always within a day or two. We do pickups Monday to Saturday, at a time that suits you.

What if I've lost the papers?

Tell us when you ask for a price. We still need to see photo ID and be sure the car is yours, but we can usually sort it out.

Getting paid

Paid before your car leaves. Cash or bank transfer; bank transfer only in NSW.

What you'll need

  • Ownership papers, with no finance owing
  • Photo ID
  • Bank details for a transfer
