Sell Broken Car in Cape Town - Free Collection & Fast Cash Offers

Quick, local solutions for selling a broken car in Cape Town

If your car is broken, has accident damage, or won’t start, you don’t have to deal with towing costs, time-consuming ads or uncertain buyers. We buy vehicles in any condition - accident-damaged, flood- or fire-affected, mechanically failed, non-running or written-off - and arrange free collection across Cape Town and surrounding areas. Our service includes online valuation, paperwork handling and fast payment after collection.

How our Cape Town collection works

Start by uploading vehicle details and photos. We assess condition, consider local market demand and send a transparent cash offer. If you accept, we schedule free collection from your address in Cape Town, handle the necessary paperwork including deregistration where applicable, and release payment quickly after collection.

What we collect (typical examples)

• Accident-damaged vehicles (minor to severe).
• Non-running or mechanically failed cars.
• Flood- or fire-damaged cars and written-off vehicles.
• Fleet vehicles that are no longer economical to repair.

Why choose free collection in Cape Town

Free collection removes logistics as a barrier to selling a broken car. Whether you’re in the CBD, northern suburbs, Southern Peninsula or the Cape Flats, we coordinate pickup at a time that suits you. This is especially helpful for non-runners and heavily damaged vehicles that are difficult to move.

If you want background on how we operate nationally, see our About / How it works page for details on valuation, towing and paperwork handling.
