"Honesty is the best policy" - Thats what Charles said to me as we talked about my car. "If youre honest with them, customers will return."He isn't wrong - Charles gave me a great price on my old Mazda 6 sedan.He came to my apartment, took a quick look over and gave me the rundown on what needed work and what was in good repair while telling stories and keeping me entertained the entire time. Best of all, he knew his stuff - you could tell that Charles had been doing it for years and knew his way around cars like he knew the back of his hand. Gave me a fair price at the end of it all before strapping the car in, paying me there and then and heading off.They're good honest people, definitely worth it.

Highly recommend Okd cars removed and point out in particular Graeme who works for the company and never gave up on a challenging removal of my car! It had not been started in 15+ yrs, flat tyres and in an awkward location! He persisted and got the job done! Many others refused to even turn up yet Graeme not only showed up he made miracles happen! 10 out of 5 stars!!!

Among all the car removal companies I’ve came across to get rid of my car which was in an accident “Old car Removed” was the only place where I was not spoken to in a rush. Julienne heard my situation and responded with patience, kindness and dealt with it very fast. The truck driver who came to pick up my car driving 2.5 hours to pick up my car was also very professional and respectful. Highly recommended.

Excellent customer service from Julian, who tried to understand his customer’s need and help, unlike most other car disposal companies who are only interested to slash your price to the lowest. His offer was the best and more importantly, again unlike most others, he kept his words and paid us exactly what he quoted. Thank you Julian!

Best Car Removal Service in Melbourne!! They paid what they actually quoted - no renegotiating on price when they arrived to collect the car. My old 99 Ford Falcon was gone in 2 hours for the best price. And must say the Tow Truck Driver was the best I've ever seen. I highly recommend this mob. Honest, friendly and reliable.
