Frequently Asked Questions
Is your car removal service really free?
Yes, 100% free. We never charge for towing, pickup, or paperwork. There are no hidden fees and nothing is deducted from your cash payment. The price we quote is exactly what you receive.
How fast can you remove my car?
In most cases, we can remove your car the same day you call. Once you accept our cash offer, we schedule a pickup time that suits you – often within just a few hours.
Do I get paid for my car, or is it just a removal?
You get paid! Unlike standard towing companies that charge you, we pay you up to $9,999 cash for your vehicle and remove it for free. Every car has value to us, no matter its condition.
Will you remove a car that does not start or drive?
Absolutely. Our tow trucks are equipped to remove vehicles in any condition – no engine, flat tyres, accident damage, or years of sitting idle. You do not need to move the car at all; we handle everything.
What do I need to have ready for the car removal?
Just your photo ID and proof of ownership. Remove your personal belongings and licence plates before pickup, and our team will take care of all the paperwork, including the change of ownership.
Do you remove trucks and larger vehicles too?
Yes. Along with cars, we remove and pay top cash for trucks, 4×4 cars, 4WD cars, utes, and vans of all sizes.
What happens to my car after it is removed?
Your vehicle goes to our car wreckers yard, where usable parts are salvaged and the rest is recycled responsibly. It is the eco-friendly way to say goodbye to your old car.
