Step 1: Free Pickup and Payment

Our team picks up your vehicle from anywhere in Invercargill and pays you cash on the spot. No towing fee. No waiting.


Step 2: Safe Fluid Removal

Before dismantling begins, we drain all hazardous fluids like:

  • Engine and transmission oil

  • Brake fluid

  • Coolant

  • Fuel

  • Air conditioning refrigerant

These are stored and disposed of according to New Zealand’s strict environmental guidelines.


Step 3: Dismantling for Usable Parts

Next, we strip down the vehicle to salvage usable components:

  • Engine and gearbox

  • Starter motors and alternators

  • Tyres, wheels, and suspension parts

  • Doors, mirrors, headlights, and more

These parts are refurbished and sold locally, giving other Southlanders access to affordable, quality car parts.


Step 4: Recycling Metals and Materials

Once stripped, the car shell is crushed and sent to metal recycling plants. Steel, aluminium, and copper are melted and reused in manufacturing — reducing waste and energy use.


Step 5: Eco-Friendly Waste Disposal

Leftover materials like glass, plastic, and rubber are separated and processed accordingly. We aim to recycle over 90% of every vehicle.
