James and Mandy Marsh are this year celebrating 10 years as the owners of Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking.
The family-owned business has been an integral part of the local community for more than 20 years, offering friendly and affordable customer service and keen attention to detail.
Mandy said the last decade has seen a number of changes within the business.
“We’ve expanded the ‘trailer spare parts’ range and we do a lot more mechanical work here now, as well as the wrecking side of things,” she said.
Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking offers a wide range of new and used parts, including windscreens, supercharge batteries, Ironman 4×4 suspension kits, bullbars, fridges, and LED lights.
It is also home to an automotive workshop, where the business’ experienced team completes services, checks, and repairs at affordable prices.
Living up to its reputation as a community-minded business, Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking this year decided to sponsor a young ambassador for the 2022 Apple and Grape Harvest Festival.
“I just thought after the couple of years that we are going through it would be a good thing to do, plus it would benefit a lot more businesses around town,” Mandy said.
“I thought it would be fun. The aim is to help raise money for the Apple and Grape so it can keep going.”
Mandy and James are sponsoring Makayla Doughty and held their first fundraiser – a sausage sizzle and raffle – on Saturday 7 August.
To stay up-to-date with their fundraising efforts, keep an eye on Facebook pages ‘Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking’ and ‘Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking Young Ambassador – Makayla Doughty’.
