At least 95% of your vehicle will be recycled

Why are cars recycled in Whyteleafe?

What exactly happens at our ATF or car recycling facility in Whyteleafe? You may not think about what happens to any car, van, or other vehicles when it makes its final journey to the scrapyard.

Car recycling is a huge industry that is heavily regulated. At our car scrap yard, your car will be at the start of a careful vehicle recycling process, which aims to minimise any environmental impact and maximise the potential of the materials, so they can be reused or recycled, where possible.

Did you know that end-of-life vehicles represent around 8 million tonnes of waste across Europe? It is essential that they are handled properly and current legislation dictates that 95% of cars are recycled. This aims to push the car industry towards a circular economy, which is a way of working that moves away from ‘single use’ plastics and other materials towards complete recycling.

  • Step One – Depollution: When your car arrives at an ATF any potentially hazardous fluids and other substances are drained or removed. These include windscreen wash, brake fluid, coolant, fuel, oil, and batteries. This ensures that they cannot cause any environmental damage.
  • Step Two – Dismantling: Once the car has been emptied of harmful fluids, it can be dismantled. Items such as catalytic converters, tires, and glass, are removed to be reused.
  • Step Three- Destruction: Once all parts have been stripped from the car, the car is then crushed, using a large hydraulic press. This is now taken to another recycling centre, where it will go through a high-powered shredder and all the metals will be separated from other recyclable materials. These materials will then go on for further recycling.

What people say about Rick

4.6 from 19 reviews on Google

“Great service, easy, friendly and efficient. I helped an elderly friend to scrap her old car from an awkward location with limited access. The car had a seized clutch so couldn't move under it's own power, or so I thought, but Rick had an impressive trick to get it moving, and it took barely 5 seconds to get it down the drive and straight up onto his flat-bed truck. A sight to behold!!”
Stephen D., Google review
“Professional, Courteous and Quick. Rang on a Monday for a Weds pickup (which suited me), I'm sure pick up could have been same day if I had wanted it. Rick arrived exactly when he said. Good price received and car put onto pick up, V5 all completed and car gone within 5 mins. Rick we a joy to deal with. I would thoroughly recommend Rick and SSC...”

“So impressed with how quickly everything was sorted! We had a lot of scrap metal left over from building work and Ricky was here in a flash. No problem with anything at all, he just took everything. Saved us so much effort than having to go to the dump, and we got some money too!”
