Harvey Wreckers is not your typical car dismantlers. Or maybe it’s more correct to say that they keep it the old-fashioned way, which is how a lot of people prefer to find their auto parts.
You guessed it right, Harvey is a leading self-serve auto wreckers in Melbourne, and that’s how they’ve operated their business for the past 50 years. And you’d love this—they are open 7 days a week!
About Harvey Wreckers Langwarrin South
If you’re the type who wants to roll up your sleeves and pull auto parts yourself, you can do so at Harvey Wreckers and pay less for the part. As been their motto over the last 50 years, “If you want something done right, you’ve got to do it yourself!” How’s that for motivation?
Of course, they will assist you with parts extraction if you’re not handy around anything automotive or mechanical.
Just to let you know, they have a well-kept, clean, and organised yard, where they keep their huge collection of vehicles of all makes and models. I know many car owners would love to get lost in such a place.
However, if the prospect of wading through piles of vehicles is not your idea of fun, you can always pay a bit more for parts extraction. Their friendly staff will be more than happy to locate and pull the parts you need and even install them on your car if you so wish.
You can also check their stock online or give them a call. You’ll find their complete contact information below.

Stocks, Costs & Pricing of Parts
If you’re planning to pull the parts yourself, don’t forget to bring your tools. There’s an entry fee of $2. For your convenience, they provide a price list for all auto parts, so you know how much a piece costs before extracting it. Since you’re the one removing the parts, the prices will be lower from those listed. Not only will you get to choose your part, but you will also pay less!
You can also check out their website for the vehicles they currently have on stock. When something interests you, make sure to write down the stock number and bring it with you when you visit the yard. The number will make it easier and faster to locate vehicles.
Those are just some of the good business practices that makes Harvey Wreckers special.
