Quick answer
We buy scrap, junk, damaged and non-running cars across Umm Al Quwain, including Al Salamah, Al Raas, Al Humrah and the industrial areas. Send the car's details for an offer. We collect free, handle the transfer or cancellation through UAQ's vehicle licensing services, settle fines from the sale price and pay by cash or bank transfer.
Umm Al Quwain is the quietest of the seven emirates, and that's part of the problem when a car breaks down. There are fewer buyers, fewer specialists and longer drives to the busier markets in Sharjah and Dubai. Rather than towing a broken car down Emirates Road yourself, get an offer and let us collect it from where it is.
Selling a car in Umm Al Quwain
Vehicle licensing in UAQ runs through Umm Al Quwain Police traffic services. The conditions for a transfer or cancellation are the same as the rest of the UAE:
- Fines on the traffic file paid, including any from other emirates
- Bank mortgage released with the lender's clearance letter
- Plates returned if the car is being cancelled for scrap
Many cars in UAQ are registered in Sharjah or Dubai. That's fine. We handle the paperwork with whichever authority holds the registration.
What we buy most in UAQ
Our UAQ pickups tend to be older, high mileage family cars and 4x4s, work pickups from the industrial areas, and cars left parked near the coast that have suffered from salt air and sun. Coastal humidity can speed up corrosion on older cars, while desert driving wears suspensions and filters. We price all of that, but a sound engine and gearbox still count for a lot.

Free collection across UAQ
We collect from homes in Al Salamah and Al Raas, the old town near the corniche, workshops in the industrial areas and the newer communities along Emirates Road. Share a location pin if the car is somewhere hard to describe.
Why UAQ owners often sell rather than repair
With fewer specialist workshops locally, many UAQ owners face a drive to Sharjah or Ajman for major repairs, sometimes on a tow truck, before the work even starts. Add waiting times for parts, and a big engine or gearbox repair on an older car becomes hard to justify. Selling as-is, with free collection from UAQ, avoids the tow, the wait and the bill.
