Letting go of junk or totalled Toyota is easy.
Letting go of one that might still have plenty of miles to give? Not so much—mainly because Toyotas are known for their unmatched quality, durability, and long life.
So, how do you know it’s time to retire your old companion? Scrap it when:
- repair costs exceed 50% of its fair market value
- it’s no longer safe to drive, due to frequent, unpredictable breakdowns
- you’re upgrading your car and only have room for one in your driveway
When the time comes to move on, knowing where to turn can make all the difference—which is precisely why car wreckers offer a simple but profitable option.
Why Turn to Professional Toyota Car Wreckers
Depending on your car’s overall condition and roadworthiness, you can sell it privately through Turners or Auto Trader. But keep in mind—it’s a time-consuming process that can eat into your profit, especially as it continues to lose value over time.
Moreover, it comes with its fair share of risks, such as scams, fraud, paperwork complications, and the exhausting cycle of negotiations with potential buyers.
It gets worse. There’s no guarantee of a sale, especially if you land a tire kicker.
Your safest, most economical bet? Car wreckers. We’re fast, reliable, and offer competitive rates for all vehicles, even ones that are damaged beyond repair.

Support Local Businesses
Selling your Toyota to a local business serving Napier and Beyond does more than help you stay compliant and avoid fines and penalties. It enables you to benefit from their valuable insights into how the region’s weather and climate can impact your car’s drivability and what parts could help improve your safety on the road. They’re also familiar with the seasonal demands of metal, which can help maximize your returns.
Plus, you get to strengthen the local economy by creating job opportunities within the community while reducing the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transport.
