Car Removal in NSW and Victoria
Collecting unregistered, damaged and end of life vehicles, usually free, and paying for the hulk by weight and salvageable parts. Despite the wording of every advertisement on the subject, a licensed operator in either state pays by bank transfer rather than cash. Before it goes you need to cancel the registration and lodge the notice of disposal yourself, because the plates and the liability stay with you until you do.

How this category is built
A car removal service appears in every town it services, not only the town it is registered in. That is why the town counts on this page add up to more than 0. Address and service area are held as separate facts, which is the whole reason a business on one side of the Murray is not invisible on the other.
Listings are marked up as AutomotiveBusiness in the structured
data. Ordering comes from a quality score, and where it exists, promoted placement
is boxed and labelled.

Selling a car to a wrecker: NSW and Victoria
Paying cash for a scrap car has been illegal in NSW since March 2017 and Victoria since May 2018, so every wrecker pays by bank transfer.
Questions about car removal
How many car removal are listed on LocalsKnow?
None yet. Car Removal exists in the taxonomy with its own template and schema type, and the page goes live in a town the moment there is something real to put on it. Nothing is padded out with placeholder entries.
Which towns have the most car removal?
None so far. Once a town has car removal listed it appears in the two state columns on this page, ordered by how many are behind it.
What schema type do car removal use, and why does that matter?
Every listing in this category is marked up as AutomotiveBusiness rather than a generic LocalBusiness. The type carries the properties that fit the business, so opening hours, service area and credentials are read as what they are. Marking a car removal service up as a generic business tells a search engine almost nothing, and it costs the rich result.
How is the order on these pages decided?
By a quality score built from profile completeness, whether the business has claimed its listing, and whether a licence has been checked against the state register. Rating breaks a tie. Payment does not enter it at any point, and any promoted slot is boxed, labelled, and kept out of the structured data.
