In general, Junk cars Sienna Plantation recycling involves:
An Initial Inspection of the Scrap Vehicle
The first thing we do when we’re thinking about recycling a scrap vehicle is a detailed inspection. Basically, we’re looking at the condition of the vehicle and deciding whether or not it’s worth repairing it.
If it is, we will make the necessary repairs and sell them on the second-hand market. If not, we’ll move on with the recycling process.
Preliminary Junk Car Breakdown
Once we’ve decided that the best option is to recycle a junk car, we’ll spend a bit of time-draining fluids and disposing of them responsibly. Following this, we remove potentially valuable parts such as the car’s engine and transmission.
Things like tires, batteries, starter motors, and other smaller parts may also be removed if there’s a demand for them.
Recovered Part Sales
Following the initial breakdown, we sell all usable parts to the relevant parties. Things like old tires and batteries will go to a recycling center, while engines and other mechanical parts are usually sold to junkyards or mechanics.
Vehicle Shredding
Finally, the remaining vehicle shell – which should be composed almost entirely of metal of the recycled cars in Sienna Plantation – is shredded and crushed into a small cube or block. This is then sold to a metal recycling company to be purified and reused.
