How Much Cash for Cars Can You Get?

Vehicle owner discussing a cash offer

Offer Range Depends On Vehicle Condition

How We Price It

Let's be straight: there's no single price for cash for cars, it depends on what you've got.

We work out your offer based on:

  • Make/model + year
  • Overall condition (panel/engine/gearbox)
  • Whether it runs and drives
  • Damage type (accident vs mechanical)
  • Demand for parts + salvage value
  • Location and access (easy pickup helps)
  • Wheels/catalytic converter/battery present (for scrap value)

That's why cars for scrap cash can vary heaps, two similar cars can be worth very different amounts.

How This Works

A simple three-step process.

Our streamlined process is designed for maximum efficiency and immediate payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

PEOPLE USUALLY ASK US

1. Do you buy cars without WoF or registration?

Yep. With or without WoF, with or without rego, we still buy it, and we handle the admin.

2. How fast can you pick up my car?

In Hamilton, Tauranga, Rotorua and Waikato, it's same-day pickup guaranteed. Outside those areas, we'll book the soonest slot (often next day).

3. Do you charge for towing or removal?

No. Free car removal and free towing, always.

4. What’s the safest way to get money when selling a car?

Selling to a legit, established buyer is usually the safest option, we pay cash on the spot or bank transfer, and you’re not meeting randoms off Facebook/Trade Me.

Usually just photo ID and any proof of ownership you have. We help with change of ownership and NZTA paperwork during pickup.
