Car Wrecking & Removal in Te Puna
For Te Puna locals, selling an old or dead vehicle doesn't need to be a drama — here's how we make it simple. Te Puna is a semi-rural orchard district along State Highway 2 west of the city, a mix of kiwifruit and avocado blocks, lifestyle properties and rural homes. Out here it's utes, 4WDs and paddock vehicles.
The Te Puna Picture
On Te Puna's orchards and lifestyle blocks there's usually an old ute, 4WD or dead paddock car that needs clearing. We come out, pay cash and remove it — access down rural driveways is no problem.

Legally Off Your Name

Getting Your Te Puna Vehicle Collected
Our drivers cover Te Puna and the wider Bay of Plenty every day, so a morning call usually means an afternoon pickup. No keys, a flat battery or a car buried at the back of a section are all par for the course near State Highway 2.

Every Te Puna vehicle we take is processed responsibly — fluids drained and captured, usable parts salvaged for the second-hand market, and the shell recycled for metal to New Zealand standards. Nothing's dumped and little is wasted.

We're locals, not an 0800 middleman — the person who quotes your Te Puna car is the one who knows what its parts are worth on the Bay of Plenty second-hand market. That's why the number stacks up and the truck turns up.
