How Auto Recycling help save the planet

Up to 85% of your car can be recycled, and a large part of that is your car’s body and frame. We recycle your car’s body and frame to use it for scrap metal – that is, metal that can be re-fabricated and turned into a new item. This reduces the need for producing more metals, and reduces the amount of energy needed to produce new car parts and other items.

By recycling your car, you can help reduce the amount of metals that end up in landfills, reduce your greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the amount of energy needed to mine and produce metals.

Frequently asked questions

How much will I get compared to scrapping my car?

Calculating the scrap value of a car can be impacted by a variety of factors. This includes the seasonality and demand in the scrap metal market, and the salvageable parts from the vehicle.

Companies that buy scrap cars will take at least some basic criteria into consideration before deciding how much the car is worth. For example, the scrap value of a small city car is likely to be less than that of a large 4×4 due to there being less usable metal on the vehicle. Also, the location of the buyer may impact the value of your car due to increased overheads depending on where the nearest port is located.

Some of the most common include; your car has been damaged in an accident, having problems with the mechanics, or repairs being uneconomical.
