Have a damaged, broken-down, or non-running vehicle taking up space in your driveway? You’re not alone. Many Hobart car owners face the dilemma of what to do with a vehicle that no longer works or costs too much to repair. The good news? You can still sell it — and even get cash for it — with the right approach.
🚗 Step 1: Assess the Car’s Condition
The first step is understanding your car’s condition:
– Is it mechanically damaged or just cosmetic?
– Does it start or move?
– Is it completely written off?
– Do you still have the registration papers or keys?
Answering these helps you determine whether to sell for parts, scrap, or as-is to a car buyer.
💰 Step 2: Get a Quote from Hobart Car Buyers
We specialize in buying:
– Accident-damaged cars
– Engine-failure or blown-head cars

Simply call or fill out our quote form. We’ll assess your vehicle based on its condition, make, and model, and offer a competitive cash quote — no obligation.
🛻 Step 3: Schedule Free Pickup
If you accept the offer, we’ll arrange free car removal from your location — anywhere across Hobart, Kingston, Glenorchy, Rosetta, Moonah, or beyond. No need to arrange a tow truck or transport — we bring our own equipment.
📜 Step 4: Paperwork & Payment
We’ll bring all the necessary documents and help you complete the transfer. If your car is deregistered or missing plates, we’ll still buy it. Just provide a valid photo ID and sign the sale form — then receive cash on the spot.
♻️ What Happens to Damaged Cars?
We either dismantle them for usable parts or recycle them through licensed facilities. This eco-friendly disposal ensures:
– Fluids and hazardous materials are safely removed
– Usable parts are repurposed
– Metal is recycled responsibly
📍 Areas We Cover
Our service covers all suburbs across Southern Tasmania: Bellerive, Taroona, Lindisfarne, Blackmans Bay, Sorell, New Norfolk, and more.
⚠️ Don’t Leave It Sitting
A broken car sitting idle:
– Takes up space
– Can attract fines or complaints
– Loses value every month
Selling it quickly to Hobart Car Buyers ensures you get value out of it while avoiding unnecessary stress.
