Auto Recycling: The Oldest and Most Successful Recycling Industry
A few facts about the auto & truck recycling industry:
- Approximately 11 million vehicles are recycled every year, saving an estimated 85 million barrels of oil
that would otherwise be used in the manufacture of new replacements parts.
- Automotive recyclers provide nearly 40 percent of all recycled steel (the most recycled metal) in
America.
- Recycled parts, by reducing the need to manufacture new replacement parts, lead to significant
reductions in air and water pollution, by recycling as much as 75 percent of every vehicle we handle.
- Automotive recyclers help preserve our rapidly diminishing landfill space.
- Automotive recyclers keep highways and roads clear of abandoned and disabled vehicles by providing a place to efficiently recycle these vehicles.
