Car Wreckers Putaruru, Wrecking, Dismantling & Recycling
We’re car wreckers and licensed auto dismantlers servicing Putaruru. We buy damaged, non-running, written-off and end-of-life vehicles for wrecking, dismantling and recycling.
If keeping or repairing your vehicle is no longer worthwhile, send us the details. We’ll assess its condition and make an offer and arrange collection if you decide to proceed. Eligible vehicles can receive up to $12,000.
What Our Putaruru Car Wreckers Do
A vehicle can still contain useful components and recyclable material even when it is no longer practical to keep on the road.
Our automotive dismantlers assess what can be recovered before the remaining vehicle moves through the recycling process. This can include reusable components, automotive materials and recyclable metals.
This service is for owners placing a vehicle into our wrecking operation rather than customers looking to purchase individual parts.

How Vehicle Dismantling and Recycling Works
End-of-life vehicles are worked through in stages rather than treating the entire vehicle as waste.
Usable components can be recovered, automotive fluids and materials handled appropriately, and recyclable metals separated from the remainder.
This is where car wreckers, auto dismantlers and vehicle recyclers connect: wrecking handles the complete vehicle, dismantling identifies what can be recovered, and recycling deals with suitable remaining materials.
When Is Wrecking a Vehicle Worth Considering?
- It keeps failing WoFs
- Major mechanical repairs are no longer worthwhile
- The vehicle has significant accident damage
- Rust or age is creating ongoing problems
- A work ute or van has reached the end of its usable life
- The vehicle has been sitting unused for a long time
