Selling a golf cart in Howick: how it works
Selling a golf cart in Howick to WeBuyCarts takes three steps. Answer a few questions and upload five or six phone photos (about three minutes). A real buyer values it and sends a written offer within 24 hours, valid for seven days. Accept online, sign on your phone, choose a collection slot — we load it and pay by EFT before we drive away.
Howick is handled from our Ballito showroom, so collections are quick: same-day or next-day on the North Coast, within a week elsewhere in KwaZulu-Natal. We collect from Gowrie Farm and Nottingham Road.
Golf estate carts are our bread and butter. They tend to be low-hours, garaged and fitted with the extras the next owner wants — a rear seat, lights, a decent charger. If you're selling because you're selling the house, book the collection for the week before transfer and we'll pay on the day; the buyer of your home can start fresh with their own cart.
A lot of the carts we buy in Howick come from retirement villages and downsizing owners: low hours, well looked after, often with the original charger and manual. Those are exactly the carts that fetch the top of our range, and we handle everything — the paperwork, the collection, the payment — so nobody has to organise a trailer.
What golf carts are worth in Howick
Across Howick 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 Howick 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 Howick?
Usually same-day to 1 week of accepting the offer. Howick is handled from our Ballito showroom, so collections are quick: same-day or next-day on the North Coast, within a week elsewhere in KwaZulu-Natal. 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 Howick?
Roughly R40 000 – R180 000 for most private carts in KwaZulu-Natal, 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 Howick?
Yes — Gowrie Farm, Nottingham Road 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?
We do. Non-runners are a big part of what we buy around Howick, because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves. A cart with a tired lead-acid pack is still worth real money to us — the offer just allows for the new pack.
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.
