If your vehicle is sitting in the driveway, behind the shed, or parked up at the workshop "until you get time"... you're not alone.
Cash For Car NZ runs daily routes across the Bay of Plenty, so Whakatane pickups are part of our regular run. That's how we can usually do same-day removals when timing lines up.

Free Towing
We tow anywhere across Hamilton, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and NZ-wide. We handle all paperwork, top-rated car wrecker service.
Any Condition Accepted (wrecked, dead, no WOF, no rego)
You don't need to fix it first. You don't need to pay for towing. You don't need to "make it look nice".
We Commonly Buy:
Vehicles that failed WOF / no WOF
Vehicles with no REGO / expired rego
Deregistered vehicles
Accident damaged / written-off vehicles
Flood or fire damaged vehicles
Non-running vehicles (engine failure, gearbox issues, blown head gasket, won't start)
Rusty, high-km, end-of-life vehicles
Work vehicles that are "done" but still worth money in parts/metal
How pricing works (quick and honest):
We can pay up to $12,000 for the right vehicles (often late-model utes, vans, 4x4s, trucks, commercial vehicles). The offer depends on make/model/year, condition, missing parts, and pickup access. Learn more about How Scrap Car Pricing Works Here.
