About our Mamaku service
Mamaku is a beautiful rural village on the Mamaku Plateau in the Bay of Plenty about 20 km northwest of Rotorua on State Highway 5. We know how challenging it can be to sell a car in a rural area: limited buyers, no easy access to dealerships, and the hassle of transporting a non running vehicle. That's exactly why we come to you.
Whether your vehicle is an old farm ute, a flood damaged SUV, a car that hasn't started in months, or a tidy secondhand runner, Cash for Cars Tauranga provides a fast, fair, and fully managed car removal service right from your Mamaku doorstep.
Our team regularly services rural properties across the Mamaku Plateau, Rotorua Lakes District, and surrounding farming communities. We arrive on time, assess your vehicle honestly, and pay you cash.
We've bought vehicles from remote farms, deep forest access roads, and flooded paddocks. If your car is on the Mamaku Plateau, we'll find it and we'll buy it. Even if it needs a tow truck that's on us, at zero cost to you.

We give you a fair, no-obligation quote based on your vehicle's make, model, year, and condition. Our offers are transparent — no lowballing after we arrive.
Our team drives to your Mamaku address — whether that's on SH5, a side road, or a rural property. We assess the vehicle in person and confirm the offer on the spot.

Customer reviews
Real experiences from real Mamaku, Rotorua, and Tauranga car sellers no fluff, just honest feedback.
"Called from Mamaku at 8am with a dead Hilux ute. By 1pm the truck arrived, they inspected it, handed over the cash, and towed it away. Couldn't believe how quick and easy it was. Highly recommend."
"Old station wagon had been parked in the paddock for three years no WOF, no rego, half the engine missing. Still got $800 cash. They came out to our rural property, no complaints. Legends."
"Flood-damaged Subaru after a big storm. I thought I'd get nothing but they offered a fair price, handled everything, even the NZTA paperwork. Very professional. Will use again if needed."
"Quoted on the phone, they stuck to it when they arrived. No messing around, no renegotiating. Straightforward, polite, and fast. The kind of service rural communities need more of."
