How to Choose a Trustworthy Car Removal Company in Melbourne

Melbourne has dozens of car removal companies — and not all of them are equal. Whether you're selling a scrap car, an accident write-off or an old family vehicle, choosing the right company protects your interests and ensures a smooth, legitimate transaction. Here's what to look for.

6 things to check before you choose

• Licensed and registered business: Verify the company has an ABN and a physical address in Victoria. Fast Auto Car Removal is registered at 30 First Avenue, Sunshine VIC 3020 (ABN: 99 639 166 868).
• Transparent pricing: Reputable companies give you a firm quote upfront and don’t change the price on arrival. If the offer drops significantly when the driver arrives, walk away.
• Free towing: Legitimate companies include towing in the quoted price — there are no towing fees at Fast Auto Car Removal.
• Payment on the spot: You should be paid before the car is loaded — not after, not via a cheque that arrives later.
• Proper paperwork: The company should provide a signed receipt and handle the VicRoads disposal notification on your behalf.
• Eco-responsible practices: Ask whether fluids are recovered safely and whether parts are recycled. Responsible wreckers comply with EPA Victoria requirements.

Warning signs to watch for

• No physical address or ABN listed
• Price drops significantly when the driver arrives
• Pressure to sign quickly without reading documents
• No receipt provided
• Payment offered as a post-dated cheque or voucher
