For cash for trucks Melbourne enquiries, Metal Group Recycling assesses old, damaged, unwanted or no-longer-used trucks through a mobile service. Metal Group Recycling provides a mobile assessment and collection service for eligible vehicles. We do not operate a public drop-off yard, so the first step is simple: send the truck details and clear photos so our team can assess the job.
Every truck is different. Its make, model, condition, location, access and paperwork all affect whether collection is suitable and what arrangements can be made. This guide explains the process so you know what to prepare before requesting a quote.
Cash for Trucks Melbourne: send the details and photos
Start by sending the make, model, year, condition and suburb, together with recent photos of the truck. Include photos of the front, sides, interior where relevant, and any visible damage. Let us know whether the vehicle starts, rolls and can be accessed safely.
Photos help us understand the material, vehicle condition and collection access before anyone travels to the site. They also make it easier to give you a realistic response rather than a generic estimate.
2. We assess the collection request
Metal Group Recycling reviews each request individually. Eligibility for mobile collection depends on the vehicle, its location, the material involved, site access and the information provided. Collection is not automatically available for every truck or every suburb, so we will confirm the next step after reviewing the details.
We service Melbourne and arrange eligible collections from Monday to Saturday, 7:00am to 7:00pm. For a quick response, include your preferred contact number and the best time to call.
3. Confirm ownership and identification
Valid photo identification is required for every transaction. For vehicle collections, you may also need to show proof of ownership or authority to sell the vehicle. Having these documents ready helps avoid delays on collection day.
Vehicle paperwork can vary by circumstance. Before finalising a sale or disposal, check the current Victorian requirements with VicRoads and keep your own records of the transaction.
4. Prepare the truck for safe collection
Remove personal belongings, tools, rubbish and any items you want to keep. Tell us about flat tyres, restricted access, locked gates, steep driveways or any other site conditions that could affect safe loading. Accurate information upfront lets us plan the collection properly.
If the truck contains separate recyclable material, such as batteries, cable or non-vehicle scrap, mention it when you send your photos. That allows the team to assess the whole request clearly.
5. Confirm the collection arrangements
Once the request has been assessed and the details are agreed, we will confirm whether a collection can be arranged and what you need to have ready. Do not rely on a fixed collection time until it has been confirmed directly with the team.
For smaller vehicles, see our cash for cars service. If you have general scrap metal rather than a vehicle, visit our metal recycling service.
6. Payment and final records
For eligible completed transactions, payment is arranged by same-day EFT after the vehicle, documentation and agreed details have been checked. We do not promise cash payments or publish fixed vehicle prices because every vehicle and collection is assessed individually.
Keep any records supplied during the transaction and complete any ownership or disposal steps that apply to your situation.
Request a truck collection assessment
For cash for trucks Melbourne requests, include the truck’s make, model, year, condition, current photos, Melbourne suburb and access details. Let us know whether it starts or rolls, whether parts are missing, and whether there are gates, parking restrictions or other site constraints. This lets us assess the request before any collection is arranged.
