Frequently asked questions

Check out some of our most frequently asked questions to learn more about the easiest way to sell your used car in Christchurch now.

Do you buy damaged vehicles?

Absolutely. We purchase any type of accident-damaged vehicles, repairable write-offs, flood-damaged vehicles, hail-damaged cars, and vehicles with mechanical faults. We provide an instant payment and free removal, ensuring you’ll never pay a hidden or unexpected cost.

What do you do with my car once I sell it to you?

Sell My Salvage works with a nationwide network of wholesalers, repairers, vehicle dismantlers, wreckers, and auction houses to keep New Zealand's used vehicle and parts market moving. We connect trusted automotive businesses with the vehicles and components they need while helping maximise the value of every vehicle we purchase.

Why should I sell my car to Sell My Salvage instead of a dealer?

No other vehicle buyer in New Zealand uses the same technology and streamlined process we do to deliver a fast, honest, convenient, and competitive service. Whether you're in Christchurch or elsewhere in Canterbury, we make it easy to receive an offer and arrange collection. We also often beat trade-in offers, giving you the ability to select a truly flexible sales service.

Can I accept your offer if it is equal to or more than my remaining finance owing on the vehicle?

Yes, we will require a current payout letter from your financial institution to address the outstanding balance you owe. Get in touch with us to discuss your unique situation further, and we will do our best to help you sell your used vehicle.

Does my car need a Warrant of Fitness (WOF) for you to buy it?

Not at all. We’ll buy your car regardless of its WOF status, which can save you both time and money. Unlike selling privately, there's no need to worry about organising inspections or obtain an up-to-date WOF before selling your vehicle to us.

Do you need to inspect my car or take it for a test drive before you purchase it?

No, a formal safety certificate is not required before selling your old vehicle with us. Simply email us a detailed description and good-quality photos of your forklift, and our consultants will evaluate it based on the information you provide.

Can I accept your offer if it is equal to or more than the remaining finance on my vehicle?

Yes. If your offer covers the outstanding finance balance, we'll simply need a current payout letter from your finance provider. From there, our team will guide you through the process and handle the necessary arrangements to finalise the sale.
