Why Gold Car Removals

Why Melbourne chooses us for car removal

We're a licensed, locally owned car removal company with our own tow trucks and yard in Braybrook. You deal with us directly, from the first call to the pickup.

best-price

We pay you for your car

Car removal is free, and on top of that we pay $100 to $19,999 depending on your car's make, model and condition. The price we quote is the price you're paid.

towing

Free, same-day towing

Several of our tow trucks are on the road across Melbourne every day, so one is usually nearby. Most removals happen the same day, and towing is always free.

paperwork

Paperwork handled

We complete the transfer paperwork on the spot and show you how to lodge your notice of disposal with VicRoads, so you're not left liable once the car is gone.

we-come-to-you

Removal from anywhere

From your driveway, the street, your workplace or the roadside, we'll collect the car wherever it is, anywhere in Melbourne and most of regional Victoria.

Eco-friendly car recycling

Eco-friendly recycling

Responsible car disposal: fluids are drained and disposed of properly, usable parts are reused and the metal is recycled, keeping your old car out of landfill.

paid-before-we-leave

Paid before we leave

Your money is settled and confirmed before your car goes onto the truck. Nothing to chase up afterwards.

What's my car worth?

Free car removal, and we pay you for the car

Car removal is always free. On top of that, every car gets a fair offer based on its real value, from $100 for small scrap cars up to $19,999 for late-model vehicles. Here's what decides the price:

1

Make, model & year

Newer and popular models are worth more, and so are cars whose parts are in high demand.

2

Condition & damage

Clean, running cars get the best offers, but damaged, broken-down and wrecked cars still get paid.

3

Kilometres

On used cars, lower kilometres usually means a higher offer.

4

Parts value

A good engine, gearbox or body panels add value, even if the car doesn't drive.

5

Scrap metal prices

For scrap and junk cars, the offer follows current scrap metal prices in Melbourne.

6

Rego & roadworthy

Neither is needed. Unregistered cars and cars without an RWC still get a fair offer.

Our free removal promise

Free means free. No surprises at pickup.

We never take towing or admin costs out of your offer. If your car matches the description you gave us, the price stands when the truck arrives.

FAQ

Car removal Melbourne: your questions answered

Can't find your answer? Call us 7 days a week and talk to a real person, not a call centre.

Call 0455 300 900

How much does car removal cost in Melbourne?

Nothing. Our car removal is free anywhere in Melbourne and across most of Victoria, with no towing or admin fees. In most cases we also pay you for the car, from $100 up to $19,999.

How much will you pay for my car?

It depends on the make, model, year, condition, kilometres and current scrap metal prices. Scrap cars start at around $100, and late-model cars can be worth up to $19,999. Call 0455 300 900 or use the form for a firm offer in minutes.

How quickly can you remove my car?

Usually the same day, and in many Melbourne suburbs within a few hours of accepting your quote. We do car removals 7 days a week, so you can pick a time that suits you.

Do you remove cars that don't run or aren't registered?

Yes. We remove cars that are unregistered, not running, written off, accident damaged, flood or fire damaged, and cars without a roadworthy certificate. Our tilt-tray tow trucks don't need the car to drive.

Do I need a roadworthy certificate for car removal?

No. In Victoria a roadworthy certificate (RWC) is generally needed to transfer registration in a private sale, but you don't need one to have your car removed and sold to us.

What paperwork do I need?

Photo ID and proof that you own the car, such as your registration papers. We complete the transfer paperwork on the spot and walk you through lodging your notice of disposal with VicRoads.

What happens to my car after it’s removed?

Cars in good condition may be resold. Everything else is dismantled at our Braybrook yard: fluids are drained and disposed of properly, usable parts are reused and the metal is recycled, so very little ends up in landfill.

Do you remove trucks, vans, utes and 4WDs?

Yes. Our vehicle removal service covers cars, SUVs, utes, vans, 4WDs, trucks and commercial vehicles of any make or model, in any condition, and we pay for them too.

Which suburbs do you cover for car removal?

Every Melbourne suburb. We're based in Braybrook and remove cars from the western suburbs to the Mornington Peninsula and the outer east, plus most of regional Victoria, including Geelong, Ballarat and Shepparton.

Are you a licensed car removal company?

Yes. Gold Car Removals is operated by MELT METALS PTY LTD (ABN 11 646 984 572) and holds Victorian Licensed Motor Car Trader licence LMCT 12285.
