We provide transparent, experience-based valuations, free towing across Cape Town and surrounding areas, and handle the paperwork so you can convert a scrap car into a competitive cash offer quickly.
We purchase vehicles in any condition: accident-written-off, flood or fire damage, mechanical failures, non-starters and end-of-life scrap.

Once you submit vehicle details and photos, most Cape Town quotes are returned within hours. Quotes reflect local salvage demand, parts resale potential and scrap metal prices in South Africa (figures vary by region). If you want an overview of our broader process, see our About / How it works page for full details.
| Vehicle condition | How it affects a Cape Town quote |
|---|---|
| Non-running / mechanical failure | Valuation considers salvageable parts and tow cost; still often a competitive cash offer. |
| Accident written-off | Offers reflect structural damage, parts demand and salvageability for local dismantlers. |
| Flood or fire damaged | Higher risk but parts and metal value considered; quotes vary with extent of damage. |
If you’re unsure which page fits your situation, our Cape Town users often begin with the Sell Damaged Cars or Sell Non-Running Car pages for useful guidance on preparing photos and details.
Our process is designed to be simple and traceable. Example timeline for a Cape Town scrap car:
| Damage type | Typical impact on Cape Town offer |
|---|---|
| Minor cosmetic damage | Low impact; higher parts resale potential increases offers. |
| Major structural damage | Reduces offer; salvageable components and scrap metal still contribute value. |
| Water / fire damage | Offer varies widely; full disclosure of extent helps produce an accurate quote. |
Traffic routes, access and towing times in Cape Town can affect collection scheduling. We coordinate pickups from suburbs including Atlantic Seaboard, Northern Suburbs, Northern/Western Cape access routes and industrial areas like Epping and Montague Gardens. If your vehicle is under finance, we can work with the finance provider to complete the sale - provide finance details early so we can advise on the settlement process.
We aim for transparency: quotes are based on condition, salvageability and local demand, so providing clear photos and honest descriptions helps us give the most accurate scrap car quote for Cape Town.
