Should I Scrap or Sell My Holden?
For some vehicles, private sale can work, especially if it’s clean, registered and has a current WoF. But traditional selling often means:
◽ Endless messages and tyre-kickers
◽ Lowball offers from people who never show up
◽ Giving your phone and email to strangers
If your Holden has damage, mechanical issues, or is just old and you don’t want the stress of a private sale, scrapping/wrecking often makes more sense. With Auto Wrecker NZ you get:
✔ Top cash up to $12,000 (varies by model/year/condition)
✔ 24/7 pickup available (same-day common in Hamilton/Waikato)
✔ Paperwork help – we guide you through transfer and provide a receipt
✔ No listing, no waiting, no hassle

Quick Holden Disposal FAQs
How much will I get for scrapping a Holden near me?
It varies by model, year, condition and current metal/value markets. Some are mostly scrap value, others command more, we’ll provide an honest up-front quote and can pay up to $12,000 for the right Holden.
Is it better to scrap or sell my old Holden privately?
Private sale can be okay for tidy cars with good rego/WoF. If yours has issues, is hard to sell, or you want it gone quickly, wrecking/scrapping with us will usually be easier and often better value once you factor in time and stress.
