Automotive Collection and Disposal in Welly?

Postby badassmofo » Thu Feb 02, 2006 2:11 pm

Does anyone know of any services where they come and pick up a wreck from your house and dispose of it for a small fee?

Cheers :D
Yes.

Pick a Part came and got a Subaru Leone shell (no suspension, no wheels, mostly stripped, no usable bits) from my friends house in Taita for free. It was most excellent.

They do that...

They make most of their money scrapping the shells than selling bits... so they're more than happy...

i think it costs you if the shell isnt rolling...

Didn't cost us, and the shell was so not rolling that they dragged it down the driveway.

did it yesterday with a car with no suspention, its all free. At the moment, scap is going nuts, people like sims pacific metals are offering to remove old cars from farms or anything for free. sending out flyers, making phone calls. So thats the way it is.

All Free!
Onyl fear is with all the scrap hunting some ok cars are going to get crushed.. but oh well.

Erk tell me about it. I had to pretty much give away a decent car as no-one was interested. Glad things have turned around!
