CarTakeBack launched in New Zealand in 2012
We provide an easy online service for you to sell your old car, whatever the condition. We buy scrap cars at the end of their life, as well as buying old cars, faulty and damaged cars, write-offs and unroadworthy cars, even those that still have some kms left in them but may need repairs. We don’t just buy petrol or diesel cars either we can also handle electric and hybrid vehicles!
Established in 2005 in the UK, the goal for CarTakeBack was to enable both vehicle manufacturers and recyclers to comply with the statutory environmental and reporting obligations, which were introduced as a result of end-of-life vehicle legislation. This initial objective then led to providing a service directly to the public for them to dispose of their old cars correctly.
In New Zealand, CarTakeBack’s network has steadily grown into an alliance of recycling centres of varying size, each responsibly recycling vehicles to high standards. There are multiple CarTakeBack scrap car recycling centres including in Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington.
