The automotive recycling process is a model of environmental responsibility 
Every vehicle we recycle goes through a methodical process to minimize environmental impact.

What is the vehicle recycling process?

Anti-freeze & washer fluid
Anti-Freeze & Washer Fluids are removed, separated, filtered, re-processed, and bottled for re-sale.

Batteries
After testing, batteries that are in good condition are recharged & sold to customers for re-use. Other batteries are and sent and rebuilt in a licensed recycling facility.

Body panels
Body Panels (Doors, Hoods, Quarter Panels, etc.) that are in suitable condition are stocked to repair damaged vehicles.
Unusable parts are reclaimed as scrap and the metal is recycled.

Freon and other refrigerants
The gases from air-conditioning systems are carefully removed by licensed technicians to ensure they do not escape into the atmosphere. The used refrigerant is sold to a licensed buyer to be recycled.

Fuel
Using special equipment, gas tanks are punctured, drained and removed.

Mercury switches
For a period of time, manufacturers used mercury switches to control convenience lights and ABS systems.
Although they are no longer being installed in new vehicles, there are thousands of them still in vehicles on the road today.

Oils
Oil is drained from all vehicles and sent to recycling facilities to be re-processed and re-used.

Tyres
Quality tires with lots of tread life are sold to a third party retailer for resale.
The remainder is sent to tire recyclers and processed as tire crumb to make new products or to pave our highways.

Wheels are visually inspected & stocked for re-sale. In some cases, they are reconditioned. Wheels damaged beyond repair are reclaimed as scrap metal.

All vehicle parts are recycled in an environmentally friendly way.
