Car wrecking & dismantling in Melbourne

A car can stop being economical to repair before every component inside it becomes unusable. Wrecking allows suitable cars to be dismantled so reusable parts can be identified and remaining recoverable materials can be processed appropriately.

You do not need to dismantle the car yourself before requesting a quote. Removing valuable components first can reduce what remains in the complete car.

Cars we can assess for wrecking

  • Accident-damaged cars
  • Non-running cars
  • Old and end-of-life cars
  • Unregistered cars
  • Cars with parts missing

Engine failure, transmission problems, electrical faults, severe body damage, long-term non-running condition and high kilometres do not automatically prevent a car from being considered. Bare car shells are not accepted.

Used car parts in Melbourne

Depending on current dismantled stock, parts enquiries may include engines and mechanical components, transmissions and gearboxes, body panels, lights and electrical parts, suspension and steering components, wheels and usable interior parts.

For a useful parts enquiry, provide the make, model, year, variant, engine and the part required. A VIN or part number may also help. Availability changes as cars are dismantled.

Get a quote before removing parts

If you are thinking about stripping parts from a damaged or end-of-life car, request a quote for the complete car first. Completeness can affect the assessment, so tell us if major components are already missing.

Removal for wrecked and non-running cars

When Vivid purchases an eligible car, free removal can be arranged. Let us know if the vehicle cannot roll or steer, has missing wheels, serious accident damage or restricted access.
