Auto wreckers specialize in removing parts from wrecked cars, SUVs, trucks and vans that are no longer operational because of mechanical or physical damage. They play a crucial roll
in recycling cars for a better environment.
When a car has been severely damaged and the cost to repair the vehicle is more than the car is worth, there still may be many salvageble parts that can be
removed and resold, such as window glass, engine, driveshaft, differential, transmission, radiator, exhaust manifolds, bumpers, fenders, ECU, seats, and more. These parts are all considered
used parts and will be considerably less expensive than new factory or dealer parts.
A wrecking yard typically buys their vehicles from auctions that sell automobiles deemed "totalled" by insurance companies. The cars are considered
a total loss because repairing the car would cost more than the car is worth. An auto wrecker will recognize the value left in a car and disassemble it and sell the parts that haven't been damaged.
Whether you drive an import or domestic car, SUV, truck or van, there are two simple reasons why you should always consider buying used parts from an auto wrecker. First, you'll save money over
the cost of new, replacement parts; and second, you are sure to get a part that will fit your car because it was built for your car's year, make, and model.
When it comes time to fix your car, SUV, truck or van, you should always consider buying used parts from auto wreckers because it makes economical and environmental sense.
