Place a listing →Frequently asked questions
What is my car worth?
It depends on make, model, year, mileage, condition and equipment. Through Carnet you can get real offers from dealers, not an estimate.
Do I have to take my car to a garage?
No. Only when you accept an offer do you arrange where and when the car is inspected and collected.
Do I need a technical inspection to sell?
Selling to a private buyer requires a technical inspection, but no longer in Flanders from 1 January 2027. When you sell to a dealer, the dealer usually takes care of it.
What about my number plate?
It stays yours. After the sale you return it to the DIV or transfer it to your next car.

Lokeren combines size with youth: it has the fourth largest vehicle fleet in the province of East Flanders and, at the same time, the fourth youngest vehicle fleet in the province of East Flanders. At the end of 2025 it had 40,219 registered vehicles, 28.1% more than in 2015, with an average age of 10.5 years, 1.2 years below the Belgian average. That is younger than in all of its neighbours, from Zele (10.9) and Waasmunster (11.4) to Berlare (12.8). Light trucks make up 13.4% of the fleet, against 10.4% in Belgium. Taken across East Flanders, 14.3% of passenger cars are hybrids (Belgium: 14.7%).
Selling to a private buyer means an inspection first; a dealer usually takes that step off your hands. Inspection centres nearby are in Sint-Niklaas (Oostjachtpark 8), Stekene and Dendermonde.
