We purchase every type of motor vehicle in Unsworth Heights and the surrounding Auckland area without exception. Our buying criteria covers all of the following:
The value of your vehicle depends on its make, model, year, weight, overall condition, and the current New Zealand scrap metal market. As a general guide, smaller cars typically fetch between $200 and $1,200, family cars and wagons between $400 and $2,500, and utes and large 4WDs between $800 and $6,000. We always provide a specific, accurate quote based on your vehicle’s rego number rather than rough estimates — this is the fairest and most transparent approach for both parties.
We offer same-day removal throughout Unsworth Heights and the surrounding Auckland area seven days a week, including all public holidays. For the best chance of same-day service, call us before midday. Our Unsworth Heights drivers carry the specialist equipment needed to safely remove vehicles in any situation — running or not, in a garage, on a driveway, on a rural property, or in any other location. No towing equipment or special preparation is required on your part.
Our team manages all NZTA MR15 disposal paperwork when we collect your vehicle in Unsworth Heights. The vehicle is legally removed from your name in the NZTA register, protecting you from any future fines, road user charges, tolls, or liabilities associated with that registration. This legal protection is included as part of our standard service at absolutely no additional cost. We also advise you on any registration credit refund you may be entitled to for unused registration time.
Payment always happens at the time of collection — not before, and never after. You choose whether you prefer cash in hand or an immediate bank transfer. There are no deductions, no processing fees, and no waiting periods. The price we quote when you contact us is the price our driver pays when they arrive at your address in Unsworth Heights. This transparent, no-surprise payment approach is why Unsworth Heights residents consistently recommend Scrap My Car NZ to family, friends, and colleagues.
We cover every Auckland suburb from Pukekohe and Papakura in the south to Albany and Warkworth in the north, and from Piha on the west coast to Howick and Beachlands in the east.
