Whakatāne district vehicle buyers offering free rural pickup and cash on the spot running or not, warranted or not, it's all worth a call.
Click For A Free Online QuoteRuatoki South sits deep in Tūhoe country, at the foot of the Urewera ranges where farmland gives way to native bush. It's not the kind of place a tow truck happens to pass by, and most people out here end up holding onto a dead vehicle far longer than they'd like simply because moving it is such a mission. That's the problem we exist to solve we make the trip out to you, wherever the property sits, and take the vehicle away ourselves.
Under the Euro Plus Car Parts name we've been buying and breaking down vehicles across the Bay of Plenty since 1985. Cars, utes, vans, 4WDs and light trucks all qualify, whatever state they're in long deregistered, storm-damaged, seized engine, doesn't matter. The number we give you on the phone is the number you get paid.
This page is part of the wider Cash For Cars Tauranga network at cashforcarstauranga.co.nz, where we list coverage for towns and rural communities right across the Bay of Plenty from Tauranga city and Te Puke through to Whakatāne, Rotorua and everywhere in between, Ruatoki South included. If a neighbour, friend or family member elsewhere in the region also has a vehicle to move on, they'll find the same free-pickup, cash-on-the-spot service listed for their own area on the main site, backed by the same Euro Plus Car Parts team and the same NZTA paperwork handled on your behalf.
Every vehicle gets a proper lookvover at our yard. Anything with life left in it engines, gearboxes, panels, glass, electronics is tested, cleaned and set aside as second-hand stock rather than crushed for the sake of it.
Fluids, batteries, tyres and remaining scrap metal are processed in line with New Zealand environmental rules, not left to seep into the ground or dumped out of sight.
We complete the NZTA change-of-ownership on the spot when we collect the vehicle, so there's nothing for you to file or post afterwards.
Yes, we regularly collect from rural Eastern Bay of Plenty properties, Ruatoki South included, and it doesn't cost you anything extra.
It comes down to make, model, age and condition — most vehicles land between $300 and $15,000. Call for a real figure, not a guess.
No. We take vehicles exactly as they sit, running or not, warranted or long expired.
Often the same day, otherwise the next one — we'll confirm a time when you call.
Cash For Cars Tauranga (cashforcarstauranga.co.nz) is the trading name Euro Plus Car Parts uses for vehicle buying and free pickup across the Bay of Plenty, separate from our parts and dismantling operations. Every quote given over the phone, whether for Ruatoki South or anywhere else on the site, comes from the same team, uses the same NZTA-compliant process, and is backed by the same free-towing promise no separate booking, no separate company to deal with.
