Trucks are among the most valuable vehicles in the auto wrecking market. Their size means more scrap metal, and their heavy-duty mechanical components are in strong demand from other truck operators. Ezy Auto Wrecker buys light and medium trucks of all types across Melbourne, paying cash on the spot and collecting for free.
We buy cab-over trucks, tippers, flatbeds, curtainsiders, refrigerated trucks, and other light to medium commercial vehicles. Running or not, registered or not, in any condition. Our pricing is based on the vehicle's actual recoverable value — metal weight, parts demand, and overall condition.
Truck removal requires specialist equipment. Our heavy-duty tow trucks are capable of handling large, heavy commercial vehicles. We collect from commercial properties, depots, worksites, and any other location where your truck is sitting. Call 0449 060 697 for a free quote.

Why trucks return high cash prices
Trucks are the most valuable category of vehicle in the auto wrecking market. A light truck like an Isuzu NPR weighs 3,500 to 5,000 kilograms — three to four times the weight of a typical passenger car. A medium truck can weigh 8,000 to 12,000 kilograms. That additional weight translates directly to significantly higher scrap metal value.
The parts market for commercial trucks is also strong. Fleet operators who rely on specific truck models need affordable replacement parts to keep their vehicles running. When a truck is wrecked, its engine, gearbox, axles, and body components are in immediate demand from operators of the same model.
Truck-specific components — hydraulic systems, PTO equipment, refrigeration units, and crane mechanisms — have their own secondary markets. A truck with specialist equipment may be worth significantly more than a standard model because that equipment can be recovered and sold separately.
The combination of high metal weight, strong parts demand, and specialist equipment value means we can pay substantially more for a truck than for a passenger car. If you have a truck to sell, call us for a quote that reflects its actual value.
Selling a commercial truck — the process
Selling a commercial truck to Ezy Auto Wrecker follows the same basic process as selling a passenger car, with a few additional considerations. When you call, we'll ask about the make, model, year, GVM (gross vehicle mass), and condition. We'll also ask about any specialist equipment — tipper body, refrigeration unit, crane, etc. — as this affects the value.
For trucks that are still registered, we'll need the registration papers and your photo ID. For unregistered trucks, we'll advise on the appropriate paperwork when you call. We handle the VicRoads transfer notification on site, which formally removes the truck from your registration obligations.
Collection of large trucks requires advance planning. We'll confirm the access details at your property — gate width, overhead clearance, surface type — and bring the appropriate equipment. For very large trucks, we may need to arrange a specialist heavy haulage contractor, which we can organise on your behalf.
Payment is made in cash at the time of collection, the same as for any other vehicle. For very high-value trucks, we may arrange payment by bank transfer if preferred. We'll confirm the payment method when we schedule the collection.
Refrigerated trucks and specialist vehicles
Refrigerated trucks present a unique disposal challenge. The refrigeration unit — compressor, condenser, evaporator, and associated components — contains refrigerant that must be recovered by a licensed technician before the vehicle can be scrapped. We handle this as part of our collection process.
The refrigeration unit itself has significant value as a used component. Operators of refrigerated trucks often need replacement units, and a working refrigeration unit from a wrecked truck can be worth $2,000 to $8,000 depending on the make, model, and condition. We factor this into our assessment.
Other specialist vehicles — crane trucks, elevated work platforms, and vehicles with hydraulic equipment — are assessed similarly. The specialist equipment is valued separately from the base vehicle, and the total offer reflects both components.
If you have a specialist truck to sell, call us and describe the equipment in detail. The more information you provide, the more accurate our initial quote will be. We may ask to inspect the vehicle before making a final offer for very specialist or high-value equipment.
