What Paperwork Do I Need to Sell My Car To a Wrecker in Victoria?

Selling your car to a wrecker in Victoria is a straightforward process, but there are a few documents you'll want to have ready. Getting your paperwork sorted in advance makes the pickup quicker and ensures everything is handled correctly under Victorian law.

Documents required to sell your car to a wrecker

  • Valid driver’s licence: Required for identity verification by the wrecker.
  • Certificate of Registration: Proves you are the registered owner of the vehicle.
  • Transfer of Ownership form (VicRoads): Both buyer and seller must sign. Fast Auto Car Removal provides and completes this on pickup.
  • Disposal notification: As the seller, you are required to notify VicRoads that the vehicle has been disposed of. We handle this on your behalf.

What happens at VicRoads when a car is wrecked?

  • The vehicle’s registration is cancelled.
  • The VIN is flagged in NEVDIS (National Exchange of Vehicle and Driver Information System) as disposed.
  • This protects you from any future liability associated with the vehicle.

What if I don’t have all the paperwork?

  • Lost registration papers: Contact VicRoads to obtain a replacement.
  • Inherited or gifted vehicle: A statutory declaration may be required to prove ownership — our team can guide you through this.
  • Interstate vehicles: Additional checks may apply; call our team for advice.
