Cash for Cars in Lyttelton

Lyttelton is a short trip through the tunnel from Christchurch, but parking a car here is a different story. Streets are steep and narrow, off-street parking is scarce, and a car that has stopped going takes up space that every household needs. Getting it up and out of a hillside section is the part most people dread.

That is the part we take care of. DEOL buys cars, vans and utes in Lyttelton and around the harbour, collects them free and pays you on collection.

Steep sections and tight access

When you send your plate, tell us where the car is parked: on the street, on a steep driveway, or tucked into a garage under the house. Our driver comes prepared for the access, and you pick the time that suits you. Lyttelton is about 12 km from the city, so pickups are often same day or next day.

We also collect from Cass Bay, Corsair Bay, Rapaki, Governors Bay, Diamond Harbour and Teddington.

Cars we buy around the harbour

• Cars that have given up on the hills: clutch, brakes or gearbox gone
• Cars with no WOF or an expired rego
• Older cars that sat in a garage until the battery died
• Crash-damaged and written-off vehicles
• Vans and utes in any condition

We pay for complete vehicles, so the car being whole matters more than how it looks.

A direct sale with no fees

We are the buyer. There is no sign-up, no bidding and no listing fee or commission, and nothing is deducted for the pickup. You get a cash offer, a pickup time you choose, and payment when we collect. We handle the NZTA change of ownership.
