If your vehicle is old, damaged, or no longer running, it still has value. You can get cash for scrap vehicles quickly and safely by connecting with verified buyers online.
ScrapTrade – Australia’s Online Scrap Trading Marketplace makes selling scrap cars simple, secure, and profitable. Instead of relying on a single local quote, you can list your vehicle online, compare multiple offers, and pick the highest cash payout.
Why Scrap Vehicles Still Hold Cash Value
Even non-operational cars contain materials and parts that buyers need:
- Steel and iron from the body and frame
- Aluminium engine components
- Copper wiring and electronics

- Catalytic converters with precious metals
Recycling your vehicle helps reduce landfill waste and supports Australia’s sustainability goals, while putting cash in your pocket.
