About us

The Eastern Bay's own cash-for-cars team

We're a local Whakatāne team that pays cash for scrap, junk, damaged and unwanted vehicles — and runs our own tow trucks, so from your first call to the final tow, it's us looking after you.

Local, not a call centre

When you call us, you're talking to people who actually live and work in the Eastern Bay — not an Auckland call centre routing a truck through the region once a week. We know the difference between Kōpeopeo and Coastlands, we know the run out to Taneatua and Ōpōtiki, and because we're local, we can usually be at your place the same day.

We run our own tow trucks

This matters more than it sounds. Because the tow trucks are ours, there's no third party in the middle — no coordinating with an outside towing company, no extra fees, no delays waiting on someone else's schedule. The person who quotes your vehicle is part of the same team that turns up to collect it and pays you on the spot. It's why we can promise free same-day removal and actually deliver it.

What we do — and what we don't

We buy and remove unwanted vehicles: scrap cars, junk and dead cars, damaged and written-off vehicles, and utes, vans and trucks of every make. We pay cash — up to $9,990 depending on the vehicle — and removal is always free.

We are not a used-car dealer. We don't sell cars to the public and we don't do trade-ins. Our job is simple: get the unwanted vehicle off your property, pay you a fair price for it, and recycle it responsibly.

How we work

  • Honest quotes. The number we quote is the number you're paid — no dropping the price when the truck arrives.
  • Paid on the spot. Cash or bank transfer before we tow, never after.
  • Paperwork handled. We complete the NZTA change-of-ownership (MR13B) with you, so the vehicle comes properly off your name.
  • Recycled responsibly. Fluids drained safely, parts reused, metal recycled — over 90% of your car kept out of landfill.

A business you can check

We're a Registered Motor Vehicle Trader with a New Zealand Business Number — a real, accountable, verifiable local operator. You can read more on our trust & credentials page, and see what locals say on our reviews page.
