So, you own a scrap car in Melbourne which you want to see gone sooner than later. Your average Car Buyer will probably say ‘no way!’ if you offer them a damaged, old or scrap vehicle. Does this mean you’re fated to pay for your vehicle to be collected? No way! Cars Wanted Melbourne will happily collect your vehicle from anywhere in Melbourne with our Free Car Removal service.
Sound good? It gets better: we’ll also pay you an impressive ‘Cash for Cars’ sum, no matter what shape your vehicle is in at the time. It’s a win-win, really.
Want to sell your scrap car for an honest price? If you live in Melbourne, you’re in luck! The process is as easy as ordering takeaway food.
Give us a call and our friendly team will give you a quote over the phone in minutes which we base on your full description of your car. You can also fill out our online ‘Get a Quote’ form. After agreeing to our free and no-obligation Cash for Cars offer, you can book your Scrap Car Removal appointment with us at the best time for you.
Cars Wanted Melbourne’s expert team will arrive at the appointed time. We’ll go through the required paperwork with you, making everything clear and easy to understand. When that’s done, we’ll pay you your top-dollar offer as promised.
Once everything is done (this shouldn’t take much more than half an hour), our Scrap Car Removal Experts will then tow your vehicle from its location.
Our Scrap Car Removal service is available anytime and anywhere. Even if your vehicle is completed wrecked after an accident or is written-off, we’ll gladly buy it from you. We can be with you at the drop of a hat or whenever you have free time.
When you scrap your car with a reputable local service, you’re doing your bit for the environment. We don’t just toss these cars into a hole in the ground. Our process involves:
Safe Fluid Depollution: We carefully drain oils, coolants, and fuels so they don’t contaminate our local waterways.
Metal Recycling: Your car is shredded and the steel is reused, which significantly reduces the energy needed to produce new metal.
Part Salvaging: If there’s a working alternator or a clean door panel, we save it. It’s the ultimate form of recycling.
The biggest mistake Melbourne car owners make is paying for a removal service. If a company asks you to pay for the tow, hang up the phone. A proper cash for scrap cars service includes free removal as part of the deal. We come to you, handle the paperwork for the VicRoads number plate return, and put the cash in your hand before the truck even leaves your street.
Stop letting that old heap of metal take up valuable real estate in your garage. Whether it’s a total write-off or just an old work ute that’s finally given up the ghost, Cars Wanted Melbourne is ready to give you the best deal for cash for scrap cars. We’ve binned the complicated forms and the “dodgy” hidden fees to give you a straightforward, honest service.

1. How much can I actually get for a scrap car in Melbourne?
The price varies depending on the current market value of scrap steel and the weight of your vehicle. A heavy 4WD will generally fetch more than a small hatchback. We provide instant, transparent quotes over the phone so you know exactly what to expect.
2. Does the car need to be in working condition?
Not at all. We specialise in cash for scrap cars, which means we take them dead or alive. Smashed, rusted, engine-blown, or burnt-out—we’ll take it off your hands regardless of the state it’s in.
3. What documents do I need to have ready?
To make the process smooth, just have your photo ID (like a Victorian Driver’s Licence) and proof of ownership ready. We’ll help you navigate the paperwork for cancelling the registration and returning your plates to VicRoads.
4. Do you charge for the towing service?
Never. Our scrap car removal is 100% free for all Melbourne residents. We have a fleet of tilt-tray trucks ready to pick up your vehicle from your driveway, backyard, or even a tight basement car park.
5. How long does the whole process take?
We pride ourselves on speed. In most cases, we can offer same-day service. From the moment you call us to the moment the car is loaded and you’re paid, it usually takes less than 24 hours.
6. Which areas of Melbourne do you cover?
We cover all suburbs across Greater Melbourne—from Werribee in the west to Pakenham in the east, and everywhere from the Mornington Peninsula up to the northern suburbs.
