Turn Your Non-Running Vehicle into Quick Cash

If your car won't start, has major mechanical failure, or is written off after an accident, selling it to a specialist buyer is often faster and lower-effort than repairing or listing privately. We buy non-running vehicles in any condition across South Africa - including Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban - and provide free towing, paperwork handling and swift payment once you accept our offer.

How our quick-cash process works

Our online process is designed for speed and clarity so you can convert a non-running vehicle to cash with minimal hassle. It typically takes a few simple steps from quote to collection.

Upload vehicle details and photos via our online form (make, model, year, mileage, description of the fault).
Receive an obligation-free cash offer based on condition and current salvage demand.
Accept the offer and schedule free collection at a time that suits you.
We complete paperwork (including deregistration where applicable) and release payment once the vehicle is collected and verified.

Who benefits from quick cash for non-running vehicles

This service is ideal for private owners, busy professionals, and small fleets who need to remove a non-running vehicle quickly without arranging transport, advertising, or negotiating with buyers. Fleet managers in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban often use this route to clear written-off or non-operational vehicles from inventory and recover cash fast.

What we accept

Non-running cars with mechanical failure (engine, gearbox, electrical).
Accident-damaged or written-off vehicles.
Flood- or fire-damaged vehicles and those with extensive bodywork damage.
Vehicles under finance - we advise on required bank clearance and paperwork steps.

Feature callouts

Free nationwide towing: collection arranged from homes, workplaces or storage yards across South Africa.
Paperwork handled: we assist with transfer and deregistration steps to reduce your admin load.
Fast payment: funds released and verified promptly after collection and paperwork completion.

Transparent valuation and factors that affect offers

Our offers reflect the vehicle's make, model, year, current market demand for parts/salvage, and the extent of non-running issues. Quotes are transparent and based on observable condition and available market data.

Damage types vs typical offer impact

Damage Type	Typical Offer Impact
Major engine or transmission failure	Reduced offer due to high repair cost and lower parts value
Front/rear accident damage	Variable impact depending on chassis damage and salvageable components
Flood or fire damage	Often significant reduction; however parts demand can still yield a fair cash offer

Repair cost vs value retained

Scenario	Likely Outcome
Estimated repair cost > market resale value	Selling for cash as-is is usually the better financial choice
Minor repairs with strong resale demand	Repairing could retain more value, but factor in time and transport costs

Example (illustrative): In South Africa, older models with high parts demand may be competitive on the salvage market. Decisions should consider estimated R repair costs, storage fees and time to sell - our online quote lets you compare the fast-cash option without obligation.

What to expect after you accept an offer

We arrange free towing from your specified location and confirm collection details.
Paperwork is completed with you present where required; we support deregistration and, if necessary, liaise with finance houses to clear encumbrances.
Payment is processed and verified shortly after collection - our process reduces delays so you receive funds quickly.
