We understand how important it is for you to get rid of your old car, which is why we aim to turn up as soon as we can. In many cases, we can provide same-day car removal in Melbourne. This service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

This will ultimately come down to how old the car is and what state it’s in. The price will also be affected by the current market value of the parts. You can rest assured that our professional used car buyers in Melbourne always offer great value for money. Call us today!

Fast Car Removals is one of the best car wreckers Melbourne wide with years of experience and in-depth knowledge regarding the spare parts of different vehicles. We’re well-positioned to assess the condition of your car and accurately determine a fair price.

Yes, we do! Fast Car Removals can pick up cars for cash Melbourne wide, no matter where you are or how badly damaged your car happens to be. Although the value of the car may be less than cars that are in better condition, your damaged car will still have some value.

No. All of our drivers are locals and are familiar with the laws of Victoria in regards to towing old cars. Our drivers take care at all times to prevent any health or environmental hazards.

All the cars we tow away for you are taken to our scrap yard in Sunshine where we carry out auto wrecking work. This involves removing scrap metal materials and car parts that still have value. These components will be recycled so they can be used again instead of going to a landfill.

I got into an accident and had the car written off as no longer road worthy. I wasn’t sure I could get a cent for the shell. However, Fast Auto Parts proved me wrong and paid me good money for the damaged car. I am very Thankful.

Quick, easy, paid immediately, friendly and professional. Rezai came to pick up the car at my house. Checked vehicle against VicRoads registe, and confirmed against car body plates. Then transferred money straight to account and loaded the car up. Great service.
