Old Car Removal

A car that's been parked for years is rarely driveable — flat tyres, seized brakes, a dead battery, locked steering and sometimes a body sunk into the lawn. That's normal for us. The older the car, the more likely it needs winching and the more likely we plan the recovery from photos before the truck leaves the yard.

What's included

  • Collection of long-term parked vehicles
  • Non-running and unregistered cars
  • Advice on plate and registration steps
  • Careful loading in tight spaces
  • Recycling at a licensed facility
How we operateWe ask how long the car has been stationary and whether the brakes or steering still work, then send the right equipment and confirm the offer on arrival.

A Kingswood that hadn't moved since 2011

A family in Ainslie had been putting off clearing a 1974 Kingswood that had sat under a carport since 2011 — flat tyres, seized brakes, and a lot of family history. We quoted from photos, sent a tilt tray and winched the car out over wooden planks so nothing scraped. The family received payment on pickup and a disposal notice for the vehicle.

A Camry sunk into a Farrer lawn

A 1998 Camry had been sitting on grass in Farrer for close to a decade and had sunk axle-deep, with the tyres flat and one brake caliper seized. We recovered it with a winch and boards under the wheels, then tidied the ruts with a rake. The homeowner described the yard as "back to being a yard."

Our process

How old car removal works

01

Describe the car and access

Photos of the car and where it's parked are the single most useful thing you can send.

02

Plan for the worst

Seized brakes, flat tyres, locked steering and sunk wheels are all factored into the equipment choice.

03

Agree the offer

A firm figure before dispatch. No obligation and no last-minute deductions.

04

Remove and recycle

Careful loading, then depollution and dismantling at a licensed facility.
