Sell your bakkie or panel van anywhere in South Africa. Get a competitive cash offer, free nationwide collection, paperwork handled and fast payment.
We buy bakkies and panel vans with accident or mechanical damage.
We collect across SA including Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban.
We handle deregistration and release payment after collection.
If your bakkie or panel van has accident damage, mechanical failure, flood or fire damage, or is non-running, selling to a specialist saves time and avoids repair uncertainty. We buy commercial and private vehicles in any condition and handle towing and admin - ideal for single vehicles or small business fleets in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and surrounding areas.
Bakkies and panel vans with accident damage, written-off status, engine or transmission failure, water or fire damage, or that won’t start - all accepted. We assess each vehicle on make, model, year, mileage and condition to provide a transparent cash offer.
Commercial vehicles often have higher mileage, more wear from load-carrying and different salvage demand (spare parts, bodies, or merchant interest). For fleet owners, a simple online sale can reduce downtime and logistic headaches compared with arranging repairs or private-sales.
| Repair estimate (R) | Typical retained value after repair |
|---|---|
| R 10,000-R 30,000 | Often less than 50% of pre-damage market value |
| R 30,000-R 70,000 | Value recovery varies; commercial buyers may still favour salvage route |
| Damage type | Typical effect on offer |
|---|---|
| Structural/frame damage | Significant reduction due to repair complexity |
| Engine/transmission failure | Lower offers but parts value may remain for popular models |
| Water/flood damage | Offers typically reduced; electrical corrosion is costly to repair |
