Hobart Motorcycle Wreckers
BMW Motorcycle Wreckers Hobart buys and collects crashed, broken and unwanted motorcycles from homes, sheds, workshops and roadsides across Greater Hobart and southern Tasmania. From a BMW R 1250 GS Adventure damaged on the Huon Highway to an old scooter left in a Sandy Bay garage, we arrange pickup and the right next step.
Hobart's cool, damp winters, steep streets and winding coastal roads make for demanding riding, and salt air from the River Derwent is hard on chrome, wiring and fasteners. Because getting bikes and parts across Bass Strait by freight or on the Spirit of Tasmania adds cost and time, recovering usable parts from local wrecks matters even more here. Whether your bike has crash damage, corrosion or a seized engine, we offer cash for wrecks, removal and towing.

Local Riding
From city commutes to mountain and coastal rides, these are some of the Hobart roads where a breakdown or crash can leave a motorcycle needing collection.
kunanyi / Mount Wellington: Pinnacle Road climbs to the summit through tight bends, with fog, ice and snow in winter.
Huon and Channel highways: scenic routes south through Huonville and along the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, with wet, shaded corners.
Arthur Highway: the ride to the Tasman Peninsula and Port Arthur, with wildlife on the road at dusk.
Lyell Highway: the route through New Norfolk and the Derwent Valley towards the Central Highlands, where a breakdown can happen far from help.
Tasman Bridge and Brooker Highway: Hobart's main commuter links, where breakdowns and collisions need a tilt-tray to clear.
Southern Outlet: the steep commuter road between Hobart and Kingston, where brakes and engines work hard.
Know Before You Scrap
Tasmania has its own rules and conditions that affect selling, scrapping or removing a motorcycle in Hobart.
01
When you sell or dispose of a motorcycle in Tasmania, notify the Department of State Growth through Service Tasmania so the registration is no longer linked to you.
02
If the bike will not be ridden again, you can cancel the Tasmanian registration and may be eligible for a refund of the unused portion.
03
Tasmania's compulsory injury cover is provided by the Motor Accidents Insurance Board and is included in registration.
04
Wallabies, pademelons and wombats are often on Tasmanian roads at dusk, and a strike can write off a motorcycle.
05
Hobart's damp winters and frosty mornings mean slippery roads, corroded electrics and batteries that fail in the cold.
06
Salt air from the Derwent Estuary and coastal roads attacks chrome, fasteners, wheel bearings and wiring on bikes kept outdoors.
