Local car removal, run by people who live here
Same Day Car Removal is a Canberra-based car removal service helping households, landlords, workshops and businesses clear unwanted, damaged, scrap and non-running vehicles across the ACT and Queanbeyan.
We started with one simple problem
Canberra has plenty of cars sitting in driveways that nobody wants to deal with. We built a service that removes the car, the paperwork and the stress in a single visit.
Most people who call us have already spent weeks trying to sell a car that nobody wants. It might be unregistered, hail damaged, flood affected, missing a gearbox or simply too old to be worth repairing. The ads don’t work, the phone doesn’t ring, and the car keeps taking up space.
Our answer is straightforward: give us the details, get a clear offer, and book a collection. We arrive with the right truck, confirm the price before loading, check the ownership paperwork, and take the vehicle to a licensed facility for dismantling and recycling.
We work across Canberra’s town centres and suburbs, out to Queanbeyan, Jerrabomberra, Googong, Bungendore and Yass. If a driveway is steep, a gate is narrow or a car hasn’t moved in years, we plan for it before we arrive.
Simple promises we actually keep
No pressure, no vague quotes and no surprise deductions on the day. That’s the whole model.
Clear offers
We explain what affects the figure — condition, model, parts demand, scrap value and access — before you commit.
Careful collection
Flatbed and tilt-tray equipment, plus drivers who know how to get a non-runner out of a tight spot.
Responsible recycling
Vehicles go to licensed facilities for dismantling, fluid recovery and material recycling.
Paperwork guidance
We walk you through disposal notification, plate surrender and registration cancellation.
Local knowledge
We know the suburbs, the access issues and the local rules that affect a car removal.
No pressure
If the offer doesn’t suit you, that’s fine. There’s no obligation and no hard sell.
From first call to final recycling
Every job follows the same four steps, whether it’s a single sedan in Curtin or a fleet of utes in Fyshwick.
