No WOF, no rego

No WOF or no rego car removal in Invercargill

Yes, we buy no WOF, no rego, damaged, crashed, deregistered and non running cars. If your car failed a WOF, has warning lights, a dead battery, engine trouble, crash damage or expired rego, send us the details and we can give you a cash offer. A private buyer may walk away from a failed WOF, and that is where a wrecker makes sense. We also serve the wider cash for cars Otago region.

Good to know: in New Zealand a car being sold usually needs a WOF issued within one month before handover, unless the buyer agrees in writing to take it without one. As a wrecker, we can deal with no WOF vehicles as part of the sale, so an expired or failed WOF is not a problem for us.

Simple paperwork

Paperwork for selling a car to a wrecker in NZ

Selling your car to a wrecker in Invercargill is simple, but the paperwork should still be handled properly. You do not need to figure everything out before asking for a quote. Send us the details and we can explain the next step before collection.

Good to know: when you sell your vehicle you may need to notify Waka Kotahi NZTA, check the WOF status and confirm what happens to the registration. For end of life vehicles, the NZTA MR15 form is used to cancel the registration and remove the vehicle from the Motor Vehicle Register. If the car is only off the road for a short time, the rego may be put on hold instead. You can read the official guidance on the Waka Kotahi NZTA website.

Responsible recycling

What happens after we pick up your car

After we pick up your car, we check it for usable parts, then dismantle, recycle or process the rest based on its condition. Your old car may still have value in engines, gearboxes, doors, panels, headlights, batteries, tyres, wheels, wiring, fluids and interior parts.

  • Engines and gearboxes
  • Panels and headlights
  • Batteries and wheels
  • Tyres and interior parts

Good parts can be reused through our used car parts in Otago range, which helps other vehicles stay on the road. Tyres are handled through Tyrewise, the regulated tyre stewardship scheme in place since 1 March 2024, so materials are recovered and the rest is disposed of safely.

Why choose us

Why choose our car wrecker Invercargill service?

Selling a broken or non running car to a wrecker is usually faster than a private sale or trade in.
