Wrecker software: parts inventory & online parts search

Wreckers: every part from every wreck, searchable online. Stop answering 'have you got one?' all day.

The phone rings with part requests from open to close. The yard is searched from memory and cars get bought off a blurry photo and a vague text. We build parts inventory, online search, car buying and marketplace systems for wreckers that all talk to each other. Then we host them and look after them.

Looking for wrecker software that puts your yard online and stops the phone ringing?

A wrecking yard is a warehouse with no shelves. Hundreds of cars, thousands of parts and most of it known only to the bloke who's been there twenty years. Customers ring to ask if you've got a tail light for a 2015 Corolla. Someone walks the rows to check, rings back an hour later and by then they've bought it somewhere else. Meanwhile the same part is half-listed on eBay, Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace and nobody's sure if it's still on the car.

Wollopit builds custom wrecker software around how your yard actually runs. Cars get booked in on arrival with their rego, VIN, photos and row. Their parts become searchable on your website. Sellers send you proper details before you make an offer. Listings push out to the marketplaces and come down when the part sells. We connect the tools you already like, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to pulling parts.

01The problems

What we hear from wreckers

Does your wrecking yard have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most wreckers we talk to are sitting on a yard full of value that nobody can see from the outside. The parts are there. Finding them, listing them and selling them is the slow bit.

  • The problemThe phone never stopsSame question all day: got a left headlight for a 2014 Hilux? Someone has to stop pulling parts to answer.
    How we fix itOnline parts search by rego, make, model and year. Customers see what you've got, the price and the condition without ringing.
  • The problemThe yard lives in one bloke's headOnly one person really knows what's out there. When he's off sick the counter is guessing.
    How we fix itEvery vehicle recorded on arrival with VIN, engine code, colour, kays, photos and which parts are good.
  • The problemWalking the rows to find the carThe car's in there somewhere. Twenty minutes later you find it behind the forklift.
    How we fix itRow and bay locations for every vehicle, shown on a yard map on the picker's phone.
  • The problemCars bought blindSellers text 'it's a Commodore, runs mostly' and you find out it's missing the engine when the tow truck gets there.
    How we fix itA car buying form on your website with rego, photos, condition questions and pickup address before you quote.
  • The problemPickups organised by textTow jobs scribbled on a pad and the driver ringing for the address on the way.
    How we fix itPickup jobs scheduled on a shared calendar with addresses, seller details and SMS updates to the seller.
  • The problemListings everywhere, sold nowhereA part sells at the counter and is still sitting on eBay and Marketplace a fortnight later.
    How we fix itList a part once. It pushes to your website and marketplaces then comes down everywhere when it sells.
  • The problemPaperwork when you buy a carSeller ID, VIN, PPSR checks and licence records end up in a shoebox or not at all.
    How we fix itSeller ID, PPSR results, payment details and signed paperwork stored against each vehicle and easy to pull up.
  • The problemSold but still on the carA part gets paid for and nobody pulls it. The customer turns up and it's still bolted on.
    How we fix itPick lists for the yard with every sold part, who's pulling it and when it's ready on the shelf.
  • The problemWarranty argumentsA gearbox comes back three weeks later and nobody can say when it was sold or what was promised.
    How we fix itWarranty terms tied to every part and invoice, with returns logged and tracked back to the donor car.
  • The problemCrushed cars still listedThe shell goes to the crusher and its parts are still showing as available.
    How we fix itCrush lists when a car is stripped out, with remaining parts cleared automatically and scrap weights recorded.
  • The problemTrade customers ringing for pricesMechanics and panel beaters ring every morning for the same quotes on the same parts.
    How we fix itA trade login with their own pricing, saved vehicles and two-tap orders with invoices straight into Xero or MYOB.

03The systems

The big ones

Your whole yard, on one system.

These are the systems wreckers ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.

Parts inventory & search

Every part from every wreck, searchable online.

Your yard stock becomes something customers can actually search. They punch in a rego or pick a make and model and see what you've got, the condition and the price. The phone gets quieter and the counter sells more.

  • Search by rego, make, model and year
  • Search by part name or category
  • Photos and condition grades
  • Prices with or without postage
  • Fits-other-models matching
  • 'Ask about this part' button
  • Wanted list alerts when a match arrives
  • Stock status from on-car to sold
  • Bulk pricing by part type
  • Shows on your website and counter screen

Vehicle intake & yard map

Book a car in once. Find it every time.

When a car comes through the gate it gets booked in on a phone with its VIN, rego, kays, photos and the parts worth keeping. It gets a row and bay on the yard map so anyone can walk straight to it.

  • Intake on any phone in the yard
  • VIN and rego lookup
  • Photos straight from the camera
  • Tick off good and damaged parts
  • Engine and gearbox codes
  • Row and bay locations
  • Yard map on the picker's phone
  • Shelf locations for pulled parts
  • Days in yard per vehicle
  • Ready-to-crush flag

Car buying & pickups

Know what you're buying before the truck leaves.

Sellers fill in a proper form with the rego, photos and what's wrong with it. You quote with confidence, book the pickup and keep the seller ID and PPSR result on file without a shoebox in sight.

  • Car buying form on your website
  • Rego, kays and condition questions
  • Photo uploads from the seller's phone
  • Quote and accept by SMS
  • Pickup jobs on a shared calendar
  • Driver gets address and seller details
  • Seller ID captured at pickup
  • PPSR results saved per vehicle
  • Payment records against each car
  • Signed paperwork stored digitally

Online sales & marketplace feeds

List it once. Sell it anywhere.

Parts go on your own online store with photos and warranty terms. The same listings push out to eBay, Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace and come down the moment a part sells at the counter or online.

  • Online store with live stock
  • Pay online with card
  • Postage quotes at checkout
  • Click and collect from the counter
  • Listings pushed to eBay
  • Gumtree and Marketplace listings
  • Sold everywhere when sold once
  • Listing templates per part type
  • Marketplace messages in one inbox
  • Sales by channel reports

Counter, trade & warranty

Sold, pulled, packed and on the record.

Every sale creates a pick list for the yard so nothing stays bolted to a car after it's paid for. Trade customers get their own login and pricing. Warranty terms sit on every invoice so a returned gearbox is a quick lookup, not an argument.

  • Pick lists for sold parts
  • Pulled, packed and ready statuses
  • Courier labels and tracking
  • SMS when a part's ready to collect
  • Trade logins with their own pricing
  • Quick reorders and saved vehicles
  • Invoices into Xero or MYOB
  • Warranty terms per part
  • Returns traced to the donor car
  • Crush lists and scrap weights
04How it changes

Before and after

A parts request, wolloped.

Here's how a simple 'got a door?' could change. Every yard is different, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Customer rings asking for a door
  2. Someone stops pulling parts to answer
  3. Walk the yard trying to remember where the car is
  4. Ring back an hour later
  5. Customer has already bought one elsewhere

After

  1. Customer searches your website by rego
  2. The door shows up with photos, condition and price
  3. They pay online and pick postage or pickup
  4. The picker's phone shows the row and bay
  5. Pulled, packed and posted. Marketplace listings come down on their own

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your wrecking yard: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time at the counter, in the yard and on the tow truck, then work out where the hours and the sales are going.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your vehicles, parts, yard layout, buying process, marketplaces, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually intake and online search first, so the phone gets quieter fast.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things wreckers ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Do we have to list every part?

No. You can list vehicles with their common parts and add detailed listings with photos for the valuable ones like engines, gearboxes and panels.

Can my blokes use it in the yard?

Yes. Intake, pick lists and the yard map all run on a phone. Big buttons, photos straight from the camera and no laptop needed.

Can it push our parts to eBay and Facebook Marketplace?

Yes. We can push listings out to the marketplaces you use and take them down when a part sells, so you stop selling the same alternator twice.

Can it keep our purchase records for compliance?

Yes. Seller ID, PPSR results, payment details and signed paperwork can all be stored against each vehicle, so you can pull them up when someone asks.

We already use yard software. Do we have to switch?

No. If your current system is doing its job we build around it: online search, car buying forms, marketplace feeds and the website on top. If it's holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it would involve before anything changes.

How much does a wrecker system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like a car buying form or online parts search can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most wreckers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
