Sell your written-off bakkie in Durban quickly. Get an obligation-free cash offer, free collection across Durban, paperwork handled and fast payment.
We buy accident-written-off and non-running bakkies in Durban.
Nationwide collection including Durban metro and surrounding suburbs.
We help with deregistration, finance queries and release payment quickly.
If your bakkie has been declared written off after an accident, or is non-running, you can convert it into cash quickly without arranging repairs or towing. We buy written-off bakkies in Durban and surrounding areas and handle collection, paperwork and payment so you don’t have to worry about salvage logistics.
Selling a written-off bakkie is different from a private sale of a running vehicle. Offers depend on the extent of structural and mechanical damage, market demand for parts or salvage, and legal status (for example, vehicles still under finance). For a quick, low-hassle sale in Durban we provide: free towing across the metro, assistance with deregistration, and near-instant payment after collection. To learn more about our process and why owners choose us, see our About / How it works.

Will we buy a bakkie that’s been written off by an insurer? Yes - many written-off vehicles are sold to specialist buyers for parts, repair or salvage. If the bakkie is still under finance, we explain options and can liaise with finance houses to complete a compliant sale. For more about selling non-running vehicles, see our Sell Non-Running Car page.
Offers for written-off bakkies reflect structural damage, engine and gearbox condition, airbag deployment, and the local market for parts. Location matters: Durban’s proximity to scrapyards and breakers can affect demand. All quotes are transparent and based on vehicle data and images you provide.
| Damage Type | Typical impact on offer |
|---|---|
| Minor front-end (bumper, radiator) | Lower repair costs; moderate offer reduction |
| Structural/chassis damage | Significant reduction; often sold for parts or salvage |
| Engine/gearbox failure | Dependent on replacement costs; non-running status lowers offers |
| Total fire or flood damage | Major impact; sold mainly for parts or scrap |
If you are in central Durban, collecting a written-off bakkie is usually straightforward; in outlying areas we still provide free towing but may arrange a nearby meeting point. When estimating potential outcomes, always treat any R figures you see online as illustrative ranges only - actual offers depend on inspection and vehicle data.
Once we collect your written-off bakkie, we handle the transfer and help with deregistration where applicable. Payment is released and verified promptly after collection. If the vehicle had finance outstanding, we will explain the settlement options and can liaise with the finance provider to ensure a compliant transfer.
