Hans Merensky: what to expect
Selling a cart on Hans Merensky is straightforward: our drivers are used to golf estate gates — let security know WeBuyCarts is collecting, or send us a visitor code with your booking. Many Hans Merensky sellers are moving house; book the collection for the week before transfer and we'll pay on the day.
The process is the same wherever you are: photos and a few details from your phone, a written offer within 24 hours, then accept, sign and book a collection slot online. We arrive with our own transport and pay by EFT before we drive away. No viewings, no time-wasters, no transport to arrange.
Hans Merensky collections are done with our transport partners; expect a date within one to two weeks of accepting, confirmed in writing with the offer.
What we pay at Hans Merensky
Most private carts we buy at Hans Merensky fall between R40 000 – R180 000, with lithium four- and six-seaters at the top. These are typical private-sale bands (updated 2026-09-01); the offer we send is the exact figure we'll pay.
Bushveld and lodge carts do real work — game viewing, staff transport, gravel roads — and it shows in the hours and the underside. That's fine: we price on condition, not the hour meter alone, and there is steady demand for utility and six-seater carts from lodges and golf estates across Limpopo.
Most of the carts we buy around Hans Merensky come off golf estates, and most of them go straight back onto one. That's the whole reason we can pay well here: there is always a family on the next street who needs a four-seater. Tell us which golf estate the cart lives on and whether it meets the golf estate's speed and lighting rules — it helps us price it exactly.
- 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
What we look at in your photos
Six phone photos are enough — front, back, both sides, the seats and the battery pack. From those we can see almost everything that sets the price:
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Body, seats and canopy — cracks, sun damage and torn seats all cost money to put right.
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.
- Charger, keys and manual — a working charger and both keys make the cart easier to resell, and our offer stronger.

Questions sellers ask
Do I need to arrange access for you at Hans Merensky?
Just let the gate or the office know WeBuyCarts is collecting on the day, or send us a visitor code with your booking. Our drivers are used to golf estate procedures.
How soon can you collect at Hans Merensky?
Usually 7–14 days of accepting. Hans Merensky collections are done with our transport partners; expect a date within one to two weeks of accepting, confirmed in writing with the offer.
I'm selling my Hans Merensky home — can you take the cart before transfer?
Yes, that's one of the most common reasons people sell to us. Book a collection slot before your move-out date and we'll pay on the day; the buyer of your home can start fresh with their own cart.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
We do. Non-runners are a big part of what we buy around Hans Merensky, 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.
