How It Works

1

Tell Us What You've Got

Ring 03 668 0256 or fire through our online form. Share a few details about the vehicle and we'll come back with a cash figure.

2

We Drive to Your Door

Accept the price and we'll lock in a collection time — town or farm, sealed road or gravel. Most pickups happen the same day.

3

Cash in Your Hand

Our driver counts out your money, loads the vehicle onto the flatbed, and heads off. Twenty minutes and you're done.

Scrap Car Disposal

Responsible recycling for end-of-life vehicles

Canterbury's clean waterways depend on proper vehicle disposal. We strip, drain, and recycle scrap cars so contaminants never reach the aquifer — and you still walk away with cash in your pocket.

Damaged & Accident Vehicles

Write-offs, collisions, and weather-beaten wrecks

Nor'westers, black ice on the Methven highway, gravel road mishaps — Canterbury driving takes its toll. We buy crash-damaged, flood-affected, and insurance write-off vehicles that nobody else wants.

4x4 & Truck Buyers

Top dollar for Canterbury farm utes and trucks

Mid Canterbury runs on utes and 4x4s. When your Hilux, Ranger, or Navara has done its last season on the farm, we'll pay you a strong price — running or not, muddy or clean.

Japanese Car Buyers

Mid Canterbury runs on Japanese steel

From Corollas clocking farm errands to Subarus retired after years on Canterbury gravel, Japanese imports are the backbone of rural motoring. We pay strong prices for Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, and Mitsubishi.

Rang about a dead Mitsubishi Lancer that had been blocking the carport for months. They turned up after lunch, paid $600 cash, and winched it onto the truck. Wish I'd called sooner.
