Car recycling in Surrey and London

There are many rules and regulations in place when it comes to the safe disposal of End of Life vehicles. Car recycling is nothing new but there has been an increased importance placed on car recycling to help the environment and bring down costs. You can rely on Car Scrap Surrey to do this. All vehicles that come to us are scrapped safely and in an environmentally friendly way at our Authorised Treatment Facility, to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill sites. Read our blog on what happens to scrap cars.

Here are some important need-to-know car recycling and car dismantling facts:

• Almost all the parts of a car or other vehicle can be recycled with typically 90 per cent of any car being recycled or reused. The most recycled parts of cars include the tyres, batteries, and glass.
• Before a car is recycled it goes through the de-pollution process, which means that all of the hazardous materials and components are removed to protect the environment and people. This includes windscreen wash, coolants, antifreeze, batteries, oil and fuel.
• Once all the hazardous liquids have been removed the car will be dismantled. Everything from the car tyres to catalytic converters can be reused in some way. For example, leather interiors can become handbags and belts, and dashboard plastics are turned into polymers to be reused as bins, carpet or even garden furniture.
• When the car has been depolluted and dismantled it is then crushed and sent to a metal mill.
