- The vehicle is complete and contains the essential components including engine, transmission, coachwork, wheels and catalyst (where fitted).

Want to know more in the process about recycling your car?
First of all, we professionally de-pollute the car. This involves:
- Draining all fluids
- Removing the battery and tyres
- Neutralising airbag systems
Any saleable parts are removed and sold. The vehicle is then crushed at a shredding facility, and separation techniques used to recover metallic's for recycling into new ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
The remaining material, known as shredder residue, can be treated at Heavy Media Plants to retrieve any lost metallic's and non-metallic's. The remaining residue is further sorted and used in a number of applications. For example recovered glass can be used with stone as an aggregate for road building and road surfaces.
Once these processes have been completed only then will the remaining residue be sent to landfill (typically less than 20% of the original weight of the vehicle).
