We buy fire-damaged, written-off and non-running vehicles in Durban.
Nationwide towing included - we pick up your vehicle at no cost.
We handle deregistration and release fast payment after collection.
If your vehicle has suffered fire damage, mechanical failure after fire, or is declared a write-off, we specialise in buying cars in any condition. We collect across Durban and surrounding areas, cover all paperwork including deregistration, and offer fast payment after vehicle collection.
Fire damage presents specific risks: structural heat damage, wiring and electronics failure, and hidden corrosion from firefighting. Specialist buyers understand salvage demand and safety considerations, which means a transparent, condition-based valuation rather than uncertain private-sale offers. We provide free towing across Durban and arrange a simple handover so you avoid towing fees and logistics.
Start by uploading vehicle details and photos on our homepage: Get your free quote. We reply with a competitive cash offer based on condition and salvage value. If you accept, we schedule free towing and manage the paperwork so you don’t need to visit multiple offices.
Learn more about our approach and what to expect on our About / How it works page. For vehicles that no longer run after a fire, our Sell Non-Running Car guidance explains required photos and typical timelines.
Durban-specific note: We operate throughout the eThekwini metro and nearby towns - KZN inland routes and port areas are covered. Free collection applies across the region.
Offers factor in salvage demand, the extent of heat and smoke damage, the vehicle’s pre-damage market value, and whether parts are reusable. Our partners assess the car’s condition and provide a transparent, itemised offer - you see what we consider so you can decide with confidence.
Once you accept, we confirm collection time, complete required paperwork and tow the vehicle at no cost. We handle deregistration steps and provide proof of transfer. Payment is released promptly after collection and verification - we support bank transfer options for secure, near-instant payment.
