Need to sell your damaged, non-running or written-off vehicle in Durban fast? Get a cash offer, free towing, and paperwork handled by specialists. Turn your car into cash quickly and securely.
If you own a damaged, non-running, or accident-written-off vehicle in Durban or surrounding areas, selling privately can be slow, stressful, and costly. At Sell Your Damaged Car, we make it simple to turn problem cars into cash with nationwide coverage, free towing, and support at every step.
Whether your car is in central Durban, Umlazi, Pinetown, or elsewhere in KZN, our process removes the headaches of arranging collection, paperwork, and fair valuation. We also work with small fleets or business vehicles and accept passenger cars, bakkies, and SUVs.
| Repair Scenario | Estimated Cost (R) | Value Retained (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Minor Damage | R8,000 - R20,000 | 70-80% |
| Major Mechanical | R25,000 - R60,000 | 50-60% |
| Severe/Write-off | R70,000+ | 30-40% |
Estimates above are typical for South African vehicles. If repair exceeds half the market value, selling to a specialist buyer often makes far more sense.
Selling a damaged car in KZN requires correct paperwork to ensure a legal, safe transfer. We guide you through each step:
| Type of Damage | Typical Offer Impact |
|---|---|
| Cosmetic only | Low - retains much value |
| Engine/Gearbox failure | Medium |
| Structural damage | High - often written off |
| Flood/Fire | High - specialist salvage only |
Once your car is collected and payment processed, we assist with all admin, including notifying eNatis/registering the sale and arranging deregistration (where needed). Your responsibility as a seller is closed off officially, and you have documentation to show the transaction is finalised. Sustainable vehicle parts may be salvaged or recycled according to South African regulations to minimise waste.
We draw on years of experience working with Durban's roads, insurers, and regulations, providing a trusted, transparent solution for local sellers. From Berea to Umhlanga, Chatsworth to Amanzimtoti, we're committed to stress-free damaged car sales and verified payment on every deal.
Seasoned automotive specialists dedicated to helping you turn your damaged or non-running vehicle into cash fast and hassle-free.
