Selling to Queenstown Car Wreckers is simple. Get a quote, accept the offer, book the collection, and get paid.
Call us or request a quote with the make, model, year, condition and your Cromwell pickup address. Tell us if it starts, rolls, or is missing wheels.
We check the details and give you a clear cash offer based on condition and value. There is no obligation, so you decide whether to accept.

Cromwell sits well away from the big yards, so the usual first cost of selling a dead car here is the tow. We come to you instead, which means the figure you accept is the figure you keep.
Six things we look at before any number is given. Accurate details from you mean an accurate offer from us.
These set the baseline, because they decide who wants the parts.
Serious damage, heavy rust or a dead engine all bring the offer down.
A sound engine, gearbox, panels and wheels all push the number up.
Parts already removed reduce what we can recover and what we can pay.
Bigger vehicles carry more metal, and metal prices move over time.
A hard to reach location changes the truck and the time needed.
Eight things included in every sale, listed plainly so there are no surprises on collection day.
We buy unwanted vehicles in many types and conditions, including cars that are damaged, old, unregistered or no longer running. If it is taking up space, it is worth asking about.
Toyota, Nissan, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Honda, Holden, Ford, Suzuki, Hyundai, Volkswagen and plenty of others. If you are unsure whether we buy your vehicle, ask us and you will get a quick answer.
