Selling your car anywhere in the Netherlands

Location does not change the offer, and it does not change collection either: both work the same from Groningen to Maastricht. A handful of cities get a page of their own below.

We cover the whole country

We buy cars in every part of the Netherlands. The cities below each have their own page, and everywhere else works exactly the same way.

There is no driving it anywhere yourself. We fix a time, meet you where the car is parked, look it over together and handle the RDW transfer on that spot.

A few things vary by city, environmental zones for older diesels, parking permits and the like. The relevant city page below spells out what applies and links to the municipality's own page.

How collection runs on the day

The date is up to you

Once an offer is accepted, we settle on a day and time together. Plans shift, a flight moves, tell us and we will find another date.

We go wherever the car is

Home, office, car park or a storage unit, it makes no difference. Flag gates, barriers or height limits when you ask, so the right vehicle turns up to collect it, free of charge.

A car that cannot be driven is still bought

No valid APK (the Dutch roadworthiness test) or a dead engine does not take the car off the table. Tell us up front, since it changes what we send to collect it, not whether we buy it.

Paperwork happens on the spot

We look the car over together, move it out of your name at the RDW there and then, and you leave with the proof of transfer (vrijwaringsbewijs) and your payment.

No page for your town? Same deal.

A page only exists for a handful of cities. Everywhere else gets exactly the same treatment.

All twelve provinces are covered, Zeeland to Limburg, Friesland to Twente. Enter the plate and the offer arrives the same way it would for any city above. Awkward access, such as a courtyard needing a key or a farm barn, is fine too, just mention it when you ask so we can plan the visit properly.

Questions about collection

Will you pick the car up from where it is parked?

Yes, at no cost, anywhere in the country, villages included. Tell us the address, whether the car drives, and whether there is a gate, a barrier or a height limit between it and the road.

What happens on the day you come for the car?

You name the time and the place. We go over the car together against what you described, transfer it out of your name at the RDW while standing there, and pay you before it is loaded or driven off. The vrijwaringsbewijs stays with you as proof the car is no longer yours.

It will not start. Do I say that now or on the day?

Say so in the request. It changes what the car is worth and not whether we want it. We then arrange a collection in which the car never has to move under its own power, which is an ordinary day for us.

Is it better to sell before I deregister at the gemeente?

Before you deregister at the gemeente, your municipality, if the dates allow it. Selling while you still hold a Dutch address keeps the whole thing simple, and it stops the road tax and the insurance running on a car you have already finished with.

When does the money reach me, before or after the car leaves?

At the handover, once the car has been checked and moved out of your name at the RDW. Nothing is held back and there is nothing to wait for afterwards.
