Why Tāmaki locals call us

No towbook fees. No haggling games. Just cash.

Plenty of Tāmaki's older sections have room for more than one car - but an unused one is still worth clearing. We've built our service around getting it off your property fast, whatever's happening with the build next door.

Vehicle types

If it's got four wheels, we'll price it

We're not fussy about badges or condition. Whether it's a runabout that's done its dash, a family wagon that failed its last WOF, or a ute that's been parked up since the Tāmaki Regeneration crews arrived on your street, we'll come and have a look and give you a straight number.

Don't see your vehicle type listed? Call us anyway — most things with an engine and four wheels are worth a phone call.

Local to Tāmaki

Right on the banks of the Tāmaki River

Tāmaki is the small riverside suburb tucked between Point England and Panmure, in the shadow of Maungarei / Mount Wellington. It's one of Auckland's most historic communities and right now, one of its fastest-changing, with the Tāmaki Regeneration programme replacing older state homes with new builds street by street.

That regeneration work means a lot of households in the area are clearing sections before movers arrive, downsizing driveways, or simply dealing with a car that's outlasted the house it was parked next to. We see it often, and we've shaped our pickup service around it: fast scheduling, no waiting around for a "yard slot", and a crew that's used to working around building sites, skip bins and narrow shared driveways.

If you're clearing a section before the movers arrive, or just have an old car that's outlasted its welcome on the driveway, we'll tow it for free from anywhere in Tāmaki, Panmure, Point England or Glen Innes.

We also regularly service the suburbs around Tāmaki:

  • Point England
  • Panmure
  • Glen Innes
  • Mount Wellington
  • St Johns
  • Ellerslie
  • Stonefields
  • Glendowie
