Auto Recycling

The US Auto Recycling industry generates $25 billion in sales annually. The industry plays a crucial role in the efficient, ecological disposal of more than 10 million inoperable automobiles a year. Whether the vehicle simply has been run down or totaled in an accident, Auto Recyclers resell any reusable parts from the vehicles, extract core value for electrical and other components, then sell the remaining hulks for scrap. Once the vehicle has been processed through a shredder, the scrap materials are then used to create new products. For the more than 75 years, automotive recyclers have been providing local employment, consumer value, and environmental conservation nationwide.
