From the harbour's western shore near Kutarere to the eastern edge toward Ōpōtiki, we buy vehicles all the way around Ohiwa Harbour with free towing and cash paid on the spot.
Ohiwa Harbour is one of the Eastern Bay of Plenty's most distinctive coastal features, a shallow tidal harbour ringed by small settlements including Kutarere, Ohiwa Beach, and the reserves and farmland in between. Properties here range from rural blocks to holiday homes, and vehicles often see a mix of harbour-road driving and long idle stretches.
We service the whole harbour, not just one settlement on its shore. Wherever your car, van, or 4WD is sitting around Ohiwa Harbour, we'll come out, give you a fair cash offer over the phone, and arrange free towing at a time that suits you.
Reliable coverage for every settlement ringing the harbour, not just the main road.
We collect from all sides of Ohiwa Harbour, including rural roads and reserve-adjacent properties.
Full payment the moment your vehicle is loaded, no waiting on transfers.
Cars, utes, vans, and 4WDs, running or not, are all worth a call.
Distance from the main highway doesn't affect our free pickup service.
We take care of the ownership paperwork so you don't have to.
Vehicles are de-polluted and recycled responsibly to protect the harbour catchment.
