Junk Car On Your Lot?

premier • Nov 16, 2020

Previously cars were recycled in a slapdash manner. Certain parts of the cars were salvaged and put to use as raw materials. Today, car manufacturers play an active role in recycling junk cars. This has resulted in a more efficient recycling process for junk cars.

Junk Car Recycling

The initial step involves part assessment of the vehicle. After the assessment, fluids are drained from the car followed by part removal. Broken, but serviceable parts are sent to entities that specialize in rebuilding the parts for consumer use. The parts that are still usable in the present state are at times sold to the end-users. After removal of parts, the car shell is crumbled and compacted. The smaller form is then transported to a location where it is divided into small masses. The non-metallic parts are removed and the remaining pieces are sold to recycling plants for melting and re-use.
