About this service

This page is about getting a damaged vehicle collected safely

Damage can make a normal vehicle pickup more complicated. A car may have deployed airbags, bent panels, broken glass, damaged steering or suspension, flat tyres, locked wheels or a body that no longer rolls normally. This page focuses on the collection side of a damaged-vehicle enquiry rather than repeating a general sell-my-car page.

Share the make, model, damage type, pickup suburb and current location. Photos of both the vehicle and the access route are useful when the car is in a tow yard, workshop, garage, apartment parking area or other restricted location.

Describe mobility and access before collection is discussed

Tell the team whether the vehicle rolls and steers, whether all wheels are fitted, whether keys are available and whether another business controls access or release. Mention height limits, narrow gates, steep driveways, soft ground or vehicles blocking the route.

If the car has no major physical damage and simply will not run because of an engine, gearbox or electrical fault, use the broken and non-running car service instead.

Use the right damaged-car page for the question you have

If your main question is the selling or quote side of a physically damaged vehicle, see sell a damaged car in Melbourne. If you are still deciding whether repair is worthwhile, read the repair or replace a damaged car guide.

This separation keeps the pickup-planning page useful without making it compete with every damaged-car query on the site.

Prepare for handover

Before collection, remove belongings and toll tags, confirm who can authorise the handover or release, and update the team if the damage, vehicle location, keys or access changes after the quote. Clear information reduces avoidable delays when a damaged vehicle cannot be moved normally.
