Selling a golf cart at Goose Valley
Goose Valley carts are exactly what we buy most: garaged, low-hours, usually with the extras the next owner wants. Because we resell within the same golf estate more often than not, our offers here are strong. Tell us whether the cart meets the golf estate's speed and lighting rules — that's worth money.
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.
Our head office is in George, so collections around Goose Valley usually happen within one to three working days of you accepting — same-day is common close to town.
What Goose Valley carts are worth
Most private carts we buy at Goose Valley 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.
Coastal carts work harder than their hours suggest: sea air attacks battery terminals, chassis rails and brake cables. We buy plenty of Goose Valley 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.
On the golf estates around Goose Valley, a cart is transport, not a toy — the school run, the clubhouse, the beach gate. That keeps demand high, and it means we can usually resell a good Goose Valley cart within the same golf estate, which is why our offers here are strong. Golf estate rules on speed, lights and roadworthiness matter too: a cart that already meets them is worth more.
- 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:
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Tyres, brakes and steering — we look at tread, brake feel and play in the steering.
- Body, seats and canopy — cracks, sun damage and torn seats all cost money to put right.

Questions sellers ask
Do I need to arrange access for you at Goose Valley?
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 Goose Valley?
Usually 1–3 working days of accepting. Our head office is in George, so collections around Goose Valley usually happen within one to three working days of you accepting — same-day is common close to town.
I'm selling my Goose Valley 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 Goose Valley, 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.
