Bay of Plenty wreckers who buy vehicles in any condition and pay up to $15,000 cash on the spot plus free pickup across Matatā East and the eastern Bay of Plenty coast.
From the eastern edge of Matatā township, along State Highway 2 toward Thornton and into the wider Whakatāne district, we've been buying unwanted vehicles from farmers, coastal homeowners and Rangitāiki Plains locals for years. No WOF, no rego, doesn't run, been sitting in a shed or paddock for a decade it's all the same to us. One phone call gets you a fair cash offer and a free tow-away, usually the same day you ring.
Why let your unwanted vehicle take up space on the property? Just call us no obligation.

It's a mix of coastal homes, farmland and small holdings, with the Rangitāiki Plains stretching inland behind it. As with much of this coast, salt air, sun exposure and long driveways all take their toll on vehicles over time, and it's common for an old car, farm ute or boat-tow vehicle to eventually be parked up for good. Cash For Cars Tauranga (cashforcarstauranga.co.nz) extends its free pickup service out to Matatā East, so residents don't need to arrange their own transport into Tauranga or Whakatāne to sell an unwanted vehicle.
We're a licensed vehicle buying and recycling service covering all of Tauranga and the wider eastern Bay of Plenty coast. We pay between $300 and $15,000 depending on the make, model, year and condition of your vehicle, and we purchase cars, utes, vans, 4WDs and trucks in any condition including vehicles that have failed a WOF, suffered salt-air corrosion, or simply sat unused for years. Once collected, every vehicle is dismantled responsibly, with usable parts resold as affordable second-hand spares and remaining materials recycled in line with New Zealand environmental standards.
