About us
Family-run since 1993
A tyre yard that grew out of salvaging good used tyres — and never stopped doing it.
Our story
From Chris to Stoffel
Tyre Salvage started in 1993 with a simple idea: plenty of tyres that come off cars still have lots of safe kilometres left in them. Chris Buitendach built a business around finding, checking and selling those tyres at a fair price.
Since then the yard has grown from a small workshop into a full tyre and fitment centre. Stoffel joined in 2014 and today he runs the business with Laura and the team — adding new tyre brands, industrial tyres, brakes and suspension along the way.
What hasn't changed is how we deal with people: honestly, and like family. Customers tell us that a lot — it's the part we're proudest of.
