How selling in Empangeni works
We collect from driveways, garages, complexes and storage units across Empangeni. Pick a two-hour window that suits you; we phone ahead, check the cart against your photos, load it and pay by EFT before we drive away.
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.
We're based in Ballito, which makes Empangeni an easy run — most collections happen within days of you accepting the offer.
What we pay in Empangeni
Most private carts we buy in Empangeni 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 Empangeni 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.
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.
- 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:
- 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.
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.

Questions sellers ask
Do I need to arrange access for you at Empangeni?
No — we come to your home. If the cart is in a complex or behind a gate, a visitor code or a note at the gate is all we need.
How soon can you collect in Empangeni?
Usually same-day to 1 week of accepting. We're based in Ballito, which makes Empangeni an easy run — most collections happen within days of you accepting the offer.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
We do. Non-runners are a big part of what we buy around Empangeni, 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.
