Ford Parts Recycling at a Glance
Did you know that about 95% of vehicles in the United States are recycled when they’re no longer viable for use? The ease and versatility of recycling automotive parts and materials is why the auto recycling industry is the 16th largest in the United States, and why it produces billions of dollars each year. And that money can really benefit consumers.
That’s because recycled parts and pieces have many benefits. To start, recycling helps to remove plastics from landfills and prevent ocean waste build up, which protects the environment and wildlife. By recycling, parts are also a lot less expensive, making them more accessible to drivers looking to repair or upgrade.
Parts can be recycled with repairs, to be reused for the original purpose, or they can be put through the recycling process and made into something brand new. The automotive parts and materials most commonly recycled are the ones with the greatest number of uses, such as glass or rubber. Your old tires can be used to make interior trim, belts, and hoses, or even a new set of tires.
