Vehicle Dismantling and Recycling Across Bay of Plenty
Automotive dismantling separates an end-of-life vehicle into the components and material streams that can still be recovered.
Suitable components may be removed, automotive fluids and other materials handled appropriately, and recyclable metals separated from what remains.
This makes dismantling an important stage between receiving a vehicle for wrecking and processing its remaining recyclable materials.
Regional Vehicle Wrecking Across the Bay of Plenty
The Bay of Plenty covers a large geographic area with several major centres as well as smaller communities.
Vehicles entering our operation may be located at homes and workshops or at commercial, industrial and rural properties. We assess passenger cars alongside utes, vans, 4WDs and other commercial vehicles depending on their individual condition.
