What Happens After You Sell Your Junk Car to Fast Cash Auto Recyclers?

When you sell your junk car to Fast Cash Auto Recyclers, the process doesn’t end once we haul your car away. In fact, there’s an entire process that ensures your car is recycled and disposed of in the most environmentally responsible way possible. Here’s a step-by-step look at what happens after you sell your junk car to us:

1. Towing and Transport
Once you accept our cash offer and schedule a pick-up, our team arrives at your location to tow your junk car — free of charge! Your car will be safely transported to our recycling facility, where the next steps of the process begin. Rest assured, we handle all the heavy lifting and paperwork, making it a hassle-free experience for you.

2. Vehicle Assessment
At our facility, the car goes through a detailed assessment. We check for any parts that are still in working condition, as some components may be valuable and reusable. This includes parts like the battery, alternator, starter motor, tires, and more. By salvaging working parts, we help reduce waste and give new life to old components.

3. Draining Fluids
Junk cars contain various fluids that can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly. Our experts drain the car of all fluids, including oil, coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid, and ensure they are either reused or disposed of according to environmental regulations. This prevents any harmful chemicals from seeping into the ground or water systems.

4. Recycling Metals
Once the car is fully drained and valuable parts are salvaged, the car is sent to the recycling process. Cars are made from a large percentage of steel and other metals, which can be recycled and used in the production of new vehicles or other products. By recycling the metal from junk cars, we reduce the need for raw materials and help conserve natural resources.

5. Crushing and Shredding
After the car is stripped of usable parts and recyclable materials, it is typically crushed and shredded into smaller pieces. These metal pieces are then sorted into different categories like steel, aluminum, and copper. The sorted materials are sent to manufacturers who will reuse them to create new products, completing the recycling cycle.

6. Environmentally Responsible Disposal
At Fast Cash Auto Recyclers, we take our environmental commitment seriously. Any materials or parts that cannot be reused or recycled are disposed of in the most environmentally friendly way possible. We follow strict guidelines to minimize waste and pollution, making sure that our processes contribute to a cleaner, greener planet.
