7 Reasons to Choose Car Removal Melbourne
- 30+ Years of Experience: We bring decades of local and international auto-recycling expertise to every job.
- Direct Buyers (No Middlemen): Because we buy, process, and export the vehicles ourselves, we pass those savings directly to you with the highest cash payouts.
- Licensed Depollution: We are legally certified to safely de-gas air-conditioning units on-site, ensuring zero harmful emissions escape into the atmosphere during our Car Disposal process.
- Green Stamp Accredited: All oils, coolants, and liquid pollutants are meticulously captured and sent to licensed recycling plants.
- International Parts Export: If a part is reusable, we clean it and export it overseas. Reusing parts saves the massive amount of energy required to manufacture new ones!
- Zero Scrap Left Behind: Any remaining metals and plastics are fully recycled through our Scrap Vehicle Recycling program.
- Guaranteed Pricing: The price we quote you over the phone is the price we pay. No hidden towing fees, no onsite haggling.
A Warning: Unethical Tactics in the Car Removal Industry
The cash for cars industry is lucrative, which unfortunately attracts unethical operators. We believe in educating our customers. Watch out for these common scams when trying to book an Old Car Removal:
- The “Bait & Switch” Quote: Unlicensed operators will quote an unrealistically high price over the phone without asking for any vehicle details. When the driver arrives, they drastically drop the price. If you refuse, they may aggressively demand a “call-out fee.” (We guarantee our quotes and will never charge a call-out fee.)
- Delayed Payments: Never hand over your keys to a company that promises to mail a cheque or transfer money “next week.” You should be paid on the spot.
- Fake Online “Estimators”: Many websites use automated drop-down menus offering $5,000+ for junk cars, only to demand you bring the car to a depot where they offer you $300. Always get a genuine, human-verified quote!
- No Physical Address: If a company cannot provide a verifiable physical yard address, they are likely operating illegally without an LMCT license. Our headquarters is proudly located at 90 Wedge St, Epping.

Frequently Asked Questions FAQ
1. Why should I choose Car Removal Melbourne over other buyers?
Answer: We are a trusted, fully licensed (LMCT) Australian business with over 30 years of experience in the auto recycling industry. Because we are the actual end buyer and not just a “middleman” or lead generation site, we can cut out the extra fees and guarantee you the absolute best direct price for your vehicle.
2. Will the price quoted over the phone change when the driver arrives?
Answer: No! Unlike many operators in the industry who use “bait-and-switch” tactics or try to negotiate the price down upon arrival, we provide 100% genuine, guaranteed quotes over the phone. As long as you accurately describe the vehicle’s condition (including any missing parts or access issues), the offer we make is exactly what you get. No haggling, no headaches.
3. When and how do I get paid for my car?
Answer: We pay you securely via electronic bank transfer within hours! To comply with Victorian laws and ensure a safe, legal transaction, physical cash payments for scrap vehicles are illegal. When our driver arrives to collect your vehicle, your funds are transferred securely directly into your account. Beware of any operator offering physical cash, as they are operating illegally.
4. Is your car recycling process environmentally friendly?
Answer: Absolutely. We take our environmental responsibility very seriously. We are fully licensed to safely process your vehicle. Our trained on-site staff carefully extract and capture air-conditioning gases, oils, and other liquid pollutants so they don’t enter the atmosphere or waterways. We salvage usable parts for local and overseas reuse, and all remaining metals and plastics are strictly recycled.
5. Do you buy cars that are badly damaged or missing parts?
Answer: Yes, we buy cars, vans, utes, and trucks in absolutely any condition—whether they are old, scrap, wrecked, or unregistered. If your vehicle is missing parts or is difficult to access, simply let our customer service operators know when you call. This allows us to give you an accurate, guaranteed quote and bring the right towing equipment for the job.
