Matua's Local Car Wreckers
Car Wreckers Tauranga is the straightforward way to turn an unwanted vehicle in Matua into cash today. Matua is a leafy harbourside peninsula suburb around Fergusson Park, with larger homes and water frontage. Boats, SUVs and tow vehicles are as common here as family cars.
What We See Around Matua
In Matua we're often clearing a tidy second car, a boat-tow vehicle or an older SUV being replaced. Tight peninsula streets and sloped driveways are no problem — we bring the right truck.
