Historic, coastal, and a little off the main road - that doesn't stop us. We buy vehicles across Maketu and the surrounding coast with free towing and cash paid on the spot.
Maketu is one of the Bay of Plenty's oldest settlements, a historic coastal township at the mouth of the Kaituna River known for its kumara-growing history and long stretch of surf beach. It sits a little off the main highway route, which occasionally means fewer buyers bother making the trip.
We're a regular presence along the Maketu coast regardless. Salt air takes its toll on cars out here, and we're used to buying vehicles with a bit of rust or wear that other buyers might turn away still with a fair offer and free towing included.
Serving one of the Bay of Plenty's oldest coastal communities with straightforward, honest service.
We collect vehicles from Maketu township, the estuary, and surrounding coastal roads.
Full payment on the spot, no waiting on bank transfers to clear.
Cars, utes, vans, 4WDs running, rusted, or written off, we'll make an offer.
We work around fishing trips and coastal weekend traffic when arranging pickup.
Ownership transfer is completed for you as part of the sale.
Fluids and materials are processed to protect the surrounding coast and estuary.
