We collect accident-damaged cars across South Africa at no cost.
We handle transfer/deregistration and release payment after collection.
If your vehicle has been in an accident and is written off, non-running or costly to repair, you can convert it into cash without the usual hassle. Our online process gives a competitive cash offer based on make, model, year and visible damage, with free towing and full paperwork support across Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and nationwide.
Selling privately or arranging scrap collection often means towing costs, long delays and complex admin. We simplify the process: upload photos and vehicle details, receive a transparent offer, accept it and we arrange collection and payment. This is especially useful for drivers and small-fleet operators who need a fast, low-effort solution.
Accident-damaged, mechanically-failed, flood or fire damaged, non-running and written-off vehicles - any condition. Learn more about how we work on our About / How it works page.
| Damage type | How it affects offers |
|---|---|
| Structural (frame) damage | Reduces market and salvage value significantly; assessed case-by-case. |
| Mechanical failure (non-running) | Offers reflect repair cost versus salvage parts demand. |
| Flood or fire damage | Severely impacts value; specialist salvage markets considered. |
For owners unsure whether to repair or sell, compare estimated repair costs with a competitive cash offer - often faster and less risky to sell. If your car no longer runs, read our dedicated guidance on selling non-runners on the Sell Non-Running Car page.
Fast, low-effort alternative: Use our online valuation to avoid advertising, tyre-kicker enquiries and towing logistics.
All internal links and steps are designed for South African vehicle sellers and include support for deregistration and vehicles under finance - we explain how those situations are handled during the offer and collection stages. For more on selling accident-damaged vehicles specifically, see our Sell Damaged Cars page.
Once you accept a competitive cash offer, we schedule free towing from your location, complete the paperwork (including transfer/deregistration steps where applicable) and release near-instant payment following collection and verification. Our team works with sellers across major metros - Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban - and surrounding areas.
We assist with ownership transfer and deregistration where required. If the vehicle is still under finance, inform us during the valuation so we can coordinate settlement with the finance provider. All documentation is processed according to South African requirements; your offer will note any additional steps if a finance settlement or third-party approvals are needed.
How fast will I get paid? Payment is released quickly after collection and verification - timing depends on bank processing but we prioritise prompt transfer. Is towing really free? Yes, collection is included across South Africa as part of the offer. Can I sell if the car is written off? Yes; offers take the vehicle’s condition and salvage demand into account.
