How Vehicle Dismantling and Recycling Works
Dismantling separates an end-of-life vehicle into different component and material streams.
Suitable components may be recovered, automotive fluids and materials need to be handled appropriately, and recyclable metals can be separated from the remaining vehicle.
This means car dismantling takes place before final recycling, allowing useful value to be recovered where practical.
When Is Wrecking a Vehicle Worth Considering?
- The engine or gearbox has suffered a major failure
- Accident damage is uneconomical to repair
- The vehicle repeatedly fails WoFs
- Rust or age is creating ongoing problems
- An older ute or 4WD needs substantial repairs
- A van or work vehicle has reached the end of its useful life
- The vehicle has been sitting unused for a long period
