Demolition Traders

Demolition Traders is a privately owned New Zealand building materials supplier based at 249 Kahikatea Drive in Frankton, Hamilton. Established in 1984, it describes itself as one of the Waikato's iconic privately owned businesses and operates from a 3.5-acre site that allows easy access, parking and loading. The company sells a comprehensive range of both new and recycled building materials at discounted prices, sourcing stock from manufacturers' surplus and cancelled orders, end-of-line and downgraded products, direct imports and national suppliers, and demolition projects. It also has new products made specifically for it. The product range spans plywood and panels, pack lots, new doors, new aluminium windows, new internal doors, new entrance door leaves, recycled aluminium and wooden doors, recycled aluminium and wooden windows, roofing iron, flashings, flooring, timber, weatherboard and fascia, character items, landscaping materials, kitchens, insulation and vanities/laundry items. A notable specialisation is double-glazed ready-made aluminium joinery, which the company says is New Zealand's largest range; this joinery is supplied by a leading NZ-based manufacturer with comprehensive guarantees, so it is built by professionals rather than in-house staff. Demolition Traders has also become a major supplier to tiny home builders and granny flat projects, offering new timber, new roofing and flashings, pack lots of treated and untreated plywood, and double-glazed aluminium joinery. Although rooted in Hamilton, the company has expanded to supply customers nationwide, using courier, carrier and fragile-freight partners for delivery. Customers can also borrow courtesy trailers. The business emphasises a fair price policy, with all prices including GST, and a genuinely helpful team that assists customers in selecting renovation materials. It also buys unwanted good-quality items such as aluminium and wooden joinery and kitchens, and accepts product requests for items not listed online. Demolition Traders operates a physical yard and an e-commerce website with features such as advanced search, wishlists, wanted listings and a chatbot assistant named Chippy. Its privacy policy states compliance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020. The company remains privately owned and active.

Demolition Traders was established in 1984 and has grown into one of the Waikato's iconic privately owned businesses. Its premises at 249 Kahikatea Drive in Frankton, Hamilton, covers 3.5 acres, providing easy access, parking and loading for customers. From the outset the business model has centred on offering a comprehensive range of both new and recycled building materials at discounted prices. Stock is sourced from manufacturers' surplus stock and cancelled orders, end-of-line and downgraded products, direct importers and national suppliers, and demolition projects. In addition, the company has new products made specifically for Demolition Traders. Over the years the company expanded its reach beyond the Waikato to supply customers nationwide, supported by delivery solutions using courier, carrier and fragile freight contacts. It also offers courtesy trailers for customers to borrow. A significant development was the introduction of new aluminium joinery supplied by a leading New Zealand-based manufacturer with comprehensive guarantees, ensuring NZ manufacturing standards are upheld because the joinery is built by professionals rather than staff members. Demolition Traders states that it offers New Zealand's largest range of double-glazed ready-made aluminium joinery. The company has also become the largest supplier of materials to tiny home builders and granny flats. Its tiny home product range includes new timber, new roofing and flashings, pack lots of treated and untreated plywood, double-glazed aluminium joinery and more. The business continues to operate from its Hamilton yard and sells online, with a website featuring advanced search, wishlists, wanted listings and a chatbot assistant named Chippy.
