How to sell your golf cart in Cape Town
Here's how it works: you send photos and answer a short form; we reply with a firm written offer within 24 hours; if you're happy, you accept and sign on your phone and pick a two-hour collection window. On the day we check the cart matches the photos, load it, and pay by EFT before we drive away.
Cape Town sits on our Cape run — we're in the area most weeks, and we confirm a collection date with your offer, usually within seven days. We collect from Steenberg, Westlake, Constantia, Atlantic Beach, Melkbosstrand and Bloubergstrand & Big Bay — 15 areas in all.
In a city the size of Cape Town the logistics are the easy part: we're in the area often, we drive our own transport and we don't need you to move the cart anywhere. Pick a two-hour window in the booking step and we'll be there.
Coastal carts work harder than their hours suggest: sea air attacks battery terminals, chassis rails and brake cables. We buy plenty of Cape Town carts with surface rust — we simply price the clean-up into the offer. If yours has an aluminium chassis (Club Car) or a recent lithium pack, say so; both carry a real premium on the coast.
What we pay for carts in Cape Town
Across Cape Town the spread is wide — roughly R40 000 – R180 000 — because battery type, seats and brand matter more than the badge on the front. Below are the bands we see most; send photos and we'll tell you exactly where yours sits.
The things that move a Cape Town cart up or down the range are the same everywhere: battery age and type, brand (Club Car and Yamaha hold value best), seats and lift, hours and condition, and whether the charger, keys and paperwork are all there.
- Mainstream lead-acid (2013–2019): R40 000 – R75 000 (e.g. Club Car Precedent, E-Z-GO RXV, Yamaha Drive)
- Premium lithium 4-seater (2019+): R85 000 – R150 000 (e.g. Club Car Onward / Tempo, E-Z-GO RXV ELiTE, Yamaha Drive2)
- 6-seater / lifted / street kit: R90 000 – R180 000 (e.g. Any brand, 4+2 rear seat, lift kit, lights) — highest demand on estates

Questions sellers ask
How quickly can you collect a golf cart in Cape Town?
Usually within a week of accepting the offer. Cape Town sits on our Cape run — we're in the area most weeks, and we confirm a collection date with your offer, usually within seven days. You choose a two-hour window that suits you and we come to your home, golf estate or club with our own transport.
What are golf carts selling for in Cape Town?
Roughly R40 000 – R180 000 for most private carts in Western Cape, with lithium four- and six-seaters at the top. Send photos and we'll price yours exactly, in writing, within 24 hours.
Do you collect from golf estates around Cape Town?
Yes — Steenberg, Westlake, Constantia, Atlantic Beach and the rest. Let the gate know we're coming or send us a visitor code with your booking; our drivers are used to golf estate procedures.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, a faulty charger, a controller fault, a cart that has stood for two years — we buy all of them. The offer simply reflects the repair cost. Tell us what's wrong in the form and photograph the battery pack; that's usually all we need.
Is the offer really free, and do I have to accept it?
Yes and no. The offer is free and there's no obligation at all — it's a firm number, valid for seven days, and you can accept, counter or walk away. We'd rather you took our number to compare than felt pressured.
What do I need on the day of collection?
Your ID, the charger and keys, and the cart where we can load it. We check that it matches your photos, sign off the sale agreement you already signed on your phone, and pay by EFT before we drive away. If the cart lives behind a gate, let security know we're coming or send us a visitor code with your booking.
