In the world we live in today, the more we can help our environment, the happier we will be. Stewart’s Used Auto Parts, located in Pleasant Valley, CT, knows that recycling has been around for quite a while, but it’s been steadily getting more popular. That old stigma of only recycling bottles and paper is over, however. Your car is one of the most recyclable things that you own!

People want new cars regularly, but new cars can be expensive; that’s why junkyards and auto recyclers will pay you for your old vehicle. Recycling your old car does wonders for your wallet and the environment alike; the car you recycle will be processed by the junkyards and then recycled with steel and metal from other cars. This process uses 75% less energy than creating entirely new steel.

While junkyards usually will buy the entire car from you if you’re willing to sell it, most used auto parts companies like Stewart’s Used Auto Parts will accept smaller parts to recycle. Auto parts that junkyards usually look for in a car are the following:

  • Used Tires
  • Engines
  • Starters and Alternators
  • Gas Tanks
  • Water Pumps

You can also be involved in recycling auto parts by buying used parts from a salvage yard. Since the cars in the junkyard don't need the parts anymore, you can put them back to work in your own vehicle to get the most out of them and prevent waste in the automotive industry.

If you have any old auto parts that you plan on throwing out, call Stewart’s Used Auto Parts today at (800) 726-0871 to speak with a representative about what you can do to help the environment. Visit them online to see all of their services and offers.
