SECTION 01 • OVERVIEW
Cash for Cars: Repairable Write-Off Melbourne
A repairable write-off is a vehicle that can be repaired, but the cost of repairing it is not considered worthwhile for the insurer or owner at the time of assessment. If you have a repairable write-off in Melbourne, you can still sell it for a fair salvage value based on its condition.
