Got a Western Star that's done its time? Whether it's a 4900 road train prime mover with a tired Detroit or a 6900 tipper with frame damage, Cash For Cars Perth will buy it. We purchase all Western Star models across Perth — running or not, registered or deregistered — with firm phone quotes, free heavy-duty towing, and OSKO payment on the spot. Call 0420 262 651 for a free quote. See how it works on our main site. We also help Perth owners with other commercial makes, including LDV trucks, Hino vehicles, and Fuso models.
We bring equipment rated for Western Star prime movers — tilt-trays and flatbeds capable of handling the full range. Your truck doesn't need to run or roll. Same-day pickups available across Perth.
We price Western Stars based on actual parts demand — Detroit DD15/DD16 engines, Eaton Fuller transmissions, Meritor axles, and cab assemblies all have strong salvage value in WA. That demand is reflected in what we offer.
Transport yard, depot, mine site, farm property, or roadside — wherever the Western Star is, we'll collect it. No need to organise transport or get the truck running first.
The price we agree on over the phone is the price you receive — no adjustments when we arrive. Valid for 7 days with no obligation to accept.
Western Star has a strong following among heavy-duty operators in Western Australia, particularly in mining, road train haulage, and extreme off-highway applications. The 4900 is a WA staple on long-haul and road train work, the 6900 handles tipping and heavy construction, and the 4800 and 5700 cover highway and vocational roles. Western Star's reputation for raw durability and driver-focused cab design has built a loyal owner base that prefers to keep these trucks running rather than replace them — which means there's always demand for quality second-hand parts.
Cash For Cars Perth buys Western Stars from mining contractors, transport operators, and owner-operators. We understand the WA heavy trucking market and we price these trucks accordingly. One call, one visit, cash before we drive away.
We assess your Western Star based on what you tell us and the photos you send. The quoted price is locked in — provided the truck matches the description. No surprise revisions at the gate.
We provide towing from any Perth suburb and most regional areas at no cost. Our equipment is rated for Western Star prime movers and B-double configurations.
We complete the MR9 transfer form at pickup and advise on the Notice of Disposal for WA's Department of Transport — keeping you covered after the sale.
Instant OSKO bank transfer or cash in hand — paid before we drive away with the truck. Funds in your account within 60 seconds.
Western Star uses Detroit Diesel engines — the DD13, DD15, and DD16 — along with Eaton Fuller transmissions and Meritor axle assemblies across much of its range. These are expensive components to source new, and demand for quality reconditioned units is strong among WA's mining and heavy haulage operators who want to keep their existing trucks working rather than replace them.
The Western Star 4800 and 4900 have been popular in WA's road train and mine haul sectors for decades, and the parts network for these trucks is well-established. Cab components, sleeper pods, and electrical systems from later-model 4900s are also sought after, particularly following the introduction of more modern comfort features in newer builds.
We have direct connections with Western Star parts specialists and commercial truck dealers in WA. When your truck arrives at our yard, it's assessed by people who know the difference between a repairable 4900 and one that's mainly scrap weight. That knowledge means better prices for you — more than a generic scrap yard would offer for the same truck.
Here's exactly what happens, step by step.
Call 0420 262 651 or fill in the online form. Tell us the model (4800, 4900, 5700, 6900, etc.), year, engine spec, approximate kilometres, and condition. A few photos help. We'll come back with a firm offer within the hour.
Happy with the price? Lock it in — valid for 7 days, no obligation. Once you say yes, we move fast.
We send heavy-duty towing equipment to your location — depot, yard, property, mine site, or roadside. Your Western Star doesn't need to run. We load it and go.
OSKO instant bank transfer or cash in hand — before we drive away. We complete the WA MR9 ownership transfer form and advise on the Notice of Disposal lodgement.
To give you the most accurate and competitive cash offer, our specialist buyers need to understand the model, engine spec, condition, and what's intact on the truck. The more detail you provide upfront, the firmer our offer will be — and the less chance of any adjustment when we arrive.
Send those through and we'll have a locked-in cash offer within the hour. No guesswork, no follow-up adjustments.
We buy every Western Star model that has operated on Australian roads. From the workhorse 4900 that's been pulling road trains in the Pilbara to a 6900 tipper that's been doing mine haul work, we know the value in these trucks and we'll pay you accordingly.

Detroit Diesel engines, Eaton Fuller gearboxes, Meritor axle assemblies, and cab components are reconditioned and resold through our WA trucking network. Scrap metal and fluids are handled by licensed recyclers. Your truck's parts keep other Western Stars running — and nothing unnecessary goes to landfill.
It doesn't matter what state your Western Star is in. We've collected accident write-offs from the Great Northern Highway corridor, end-of-life 4900s from Pilbara mining contractors passing through Perth, and seized-engine 6900 tippers from earthmoving operators in Armadale. If it's a Western Star, we'll buy it.

Call 0420 262 651Here are the answers to what Western Star operators ask us most often.
All of them — 4800, 4900 (SB, SF, EX), 4964, 5700 XE and XD, 6900 XD and SX, 6964, Western Star Classic, and older legacy models. Every Western Star that's operated on Australian roads is of interest to us.
It depends on the model, year, engine spec, condition, and current parts demand. A running 4900 with a good Detroit DD15 and Eaton Fuller will attract a stronger offer than a stripped 4800 on chassis only — but both have real value. Call us with the details and we'll give you a firm figure within the hour.
Yes. Non-running, accident-damaged, flood-affected, and insurance write-offs are all welcome. Detroit DD series engines, Eaton Fuller transmissions, Meritor axles, and Western Star cab components all retain strong salvage demand regardless of the truck's overall state.
Yes — completely free. We bring our own heavy-duty towing equipment capable of handling Western Star prime movers, tippers, and B-double configurations. No towing charge, no call-out fee.
Yes. We regularly collect from transport depots, earthmoving contractors, mine site laydowns, and panel shops. Give us the address and we'll coordinate access with site management if required.
No. We buy registered and unregistered Western Stars. WA doesn't require a roadworthy for private commercial vehicle sales. Just have your WA driver's licence ready as ID.
You'll need your WA photo ID and registration papers if the truck is still licensed. We complete the MR9 ownership transfer form on-site and advise you on lodging the Notice of Disposal with the Department of Transport within 7 days — missing that deadline can result in a $100 infringement notice.
