Sell a Non-Running Bakkie with Free Towing in South Africa - Fast Cash Offers

Why sell your non-running bakkie instead of repairing it?

Repairing a bakkie can be the right choice when the repair cost is clearly lower than its market value post-repair. For many non-running bakkies, however, repair estimates, towing costs and time off the road push owners toward selling. Selling with free towing removes one major cost and shortens the timeline from hours or weeks to days.

What we accept

• Accident-damaged and written-off bakkies
• Non-running due to engine, transmission or electrical faults
• Flood or fire-damaged vehicles
• Fleet vehicles and single-owner bakkies

Service essentials - what we provide

• Free nationwide towing from your address across South Africa
• Paperwork handled, including deregistration support and transfer documents
• Fast payment after collection and verification

To start, use our quick online form and upload photos and basic details - make, model, year, mileage and a short description of why the bakkie won’t run. For sellers who want more context on the process, see our About / How it works page.

If you specifically have a non-running vehicle, our Sell Non-Running Car page explains required photos and common questions so offers are more accurate.

How the sale works - simple steps

1. Upload vehicle details: Photos, location, and a short description take under 2 minutes.
2. Receive your competitive cash offer: Offers reflect condition, salvage demand and model value.
3. Accept and schedule free towing: We collect across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and nationwide.
4. Paperwork and payment: We assist with deregistration and transfer documents, and release fast payment after collection.

What paperwork we handle

We prepare the required transfer paperwork and provide proof of collection. For vehicles under finance, we advise contacting the finance provider - we can coordinate settlement figures and handle admin so you avoid extra trips to the licencing office. If you want a concise overview of items we manage, see our Sell Damaged Cars page for examples.

Practical examples (South Africa)

Example 1: A Johannesburg owner with a non-starting 2010 bakkie chooses a sale rather than waiting for costly diagnostics and towing - free collection and fast payment cleared days earlier than arranging independent repairs.

Example 2: A small fleet in Durban with two written-off bakkies used our service to remove both vehicles, handle transfer paperwork and free up yard space without paying additional towing fees.

Trust signals and safeguards

• Transparent offers based on vehicle details and market factors - you decide whether to accept
• Free documented collection with proof of transfer and payment verification
• Low risk process with minimal paperwork required from sellers
