Sell your salvage or written-off car in Gauteng. Get a transparent, obligation-free cash offer, free collection and paperwork support across Johannesburg and Pretoria.
Free towing across Johannesburg, Pretoria and surrounding areas.
We buy written-off, flood, fire or non-running salvage vehicles.
We handle deregistration and release payment quickly after collection.
If your vehicle is written off, structurally damaged, flood-affected or categorised as salvage, Sell Your Damaged Car buys salvage cars anywhere in Gauteng - Johannesburg, Pretoria, Roodepoort and surrounding areas. We provide a transparent online valuation, free towing and handle deregistration and transfer paperwork.
Selling a salvage car privately in Gauteng can be slow and risky. Specialist buyers work with salvage markets, insurers and scrapyards and can offer immediate collection and payment. That means fewer logistics for you, no towing costs, and straightforward paperwork handled on your behalf.
We price offers based on vehicle data, visible damage, market demand in salvage yards and parts value. Offers are transparent and obligation-free; once you accept, we arrange free towing in Gauteng and process the paperwork. Learn more about our approach on our About / How it works page.
Key factors that influence offers include vehicle age, make and model, extent of structural or mechanical damage, and whether parts have salvage value. We provide clear reasoning for valuations so you can compare options easily. If your car no longer runs, check our dedicated guidance on selling non-running vehicles at Sell Non-Running Car.
| Damage type | Typical offer impact |
|---|---|
| Minor cosmetic (panels, lights) | Lower reduction; parts retain good value |
| Structural/frames damage | Higher reduction due to repair complexity |
| Flood/fire damage | Significant reduction; parts may still have salvage value |
| Non-running (mechanical failure) | Variable - depends on parts and drivetrain value |
