Do you pay cash for trucks in Brisbane?
Yes, in Queensland. Cash for trucks in Brisbane is paid in cash or by bank transfer when we collect the truck, before it leaves. In NSW, including Tweed Heads, the law does not allow cash for scrap vehicles, so a truck there is paid by bank transfer only.
1800-CASH-FOR-CARS buys trucks on this page. Cars, utes and vans are priced on cash for cars. The suburb-by-suburb tow, for any vehicle, is on free car removal across South East Queensland. If the vehicle is a truck, start here.
Light, medium or heavy, running or not. A retired work truck, one that's failed its inspection, or a wreck that's been sitting in the yard: tell us about it and we'll give you a price. Photos help a lot with trucks, so text a few through to 0423 514 111 if you can.
Trucks we buy
Send the make, model, year, kilometres or hours, and what's wrong with it. A truck with a blown engine, crash damage or flood damage is still in scope. So is one that has been off the road for years. Say what's missing so the price we give is the price we pay on the day.
- Light trucks. Isuzu NPR, Hino 300, Fuso Canter, Iveco Daily and similar.
- Medium and heavy rigids. Tippers, tray tops, pantechs, curtainsiders and refrigerated trucks.
- Damaged or non-running. Blown engines, crash damage, flood damage and trucks parked up for years.
- Fleets. Several trucks from one business, picked up on a schedule that suits you.
Is the tow free when you buy a truck?
Pickup is free for most trucks. We arrange the right tow for the job and confirm any pickup details for a large heavy vehicle when we give the price, so there is no surprise fee on the day. You are paid before the truck leaves.
We arrange the right tow truck or tilt tray for the job. Pickup is free for most trucks. For large heavy vehicles we'll confirm any pickup details when we give you the price, so there are no surprises on the day.
You're paid in cash or by bank transfer when we collect the truck, before it leaves. In NSW, including Tweed Heads, it's bank transfer only. Have the account details ready if the truck is on that side of the border. The Tweed Heads page explains that rule for cars and trucks alike.
Collections run Monday to Saturday. Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich and Gold Coast trucks are usually within a day or two. Sunshine Coast and Tweed Heads trucks are booked with you, usually within a day or two. The Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast pages cover those runs.
How are trucks in NSW paid?
By bank transfer. NSW law does not allow cash for scrap vehicles, and that includes trucks in Tweed Heads. Have the account details ready on the day. In Queensland you can choose cash or a transfer, paid when we collect the truck and before it leaves.
Bring photo ID and proof of ownership, the same as for a car. Rego papers if you have them. An unregistered truck is fine, because we tow it and it doesn't need a roadworthy. The truck shouldn't have finance owing. If it does, call us and we'll discuss that truck. We don't publish a finance process on this page.
After collection, cancel the registration and the insurance, and keep the receipt. Queensland trucks are cancelled with Transport and Main Roads, online, and you may get a refund for unused rego. NSW trucks are cancelled with Service NSW.
The yard is at 79B Breadwell St, Rocklea QLD 4106, open weekdays 8am to 5pm and Saturdays 8am to 2pm. 1800-CASH-FOR-CARS is part of A Plus Car Removal, and we share that yard. You can visit or call the Rocklea yard, or send the truck's details through the quote form.
What happens to the truck
Back at the yard, fluids are drained and disposed of properly. Parts we can reuse are pulled and resold. The shell goes to a metal recycler, so the truck doesn't end up dumped. That's why a non-running truck still has a price: the parts and the metal are worth something to us, which is also why the tow is free for most trucks.
A car that is only scrap, rather than a truck, is on the scrap car removal page. If you want guide ranges for scrap cars, those are published on the scrap car prices page and apply across the areas we cover, with free towing never deducted.
