CarScrap.au is an independent information resource built to help people understand how scrapping a car in Australia works from first quote to collection, what affects the price you are offered, how to compare quotes and how to avoid low-ball offers and common problems.
Why We Built This
Selling a car for scrap is one of the most common ways people first meet the scrap trade, and it is also where quotes vary the most. We built this site to explain how the process works, why prices differ and what to ask before you say yes. It is general information, so check the rules in your own state for registration and paperwork.
Part of the ScrapTrade Network
CarScrap.au is part of the ScrapTrade network — an online scrap trading marketplace connecting verified buyers and sellers of scrap metal, e-waste, batteries, and more. Where this site focuses on the car scrapping process, ScrapTrade is where you compare offers from verified buyers, with transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
What We’re Not
We’re not a scrap buyer and we don’t handle transactions directly through this site — this is an information resource. For the actual buying and selling, head to ScrapTrade.
A good car scrap deal starts with comparing offers. ScrapTrade connects you with verified buyers, transparent weighing and escrow-protected payments.
