Green & Sustainable Auto Salvage Process in Edinburgh
Here at Motor Salvage Group, we understand the need to dispose of auto vehicles in a responsible manner and the need of every business to support a circular economy. As a DVLA Approved salvage and auto recycling facility, we ensure that the vehicles are disposed of in a manner that will cause no harm to the environment because of our eco-friendly auto salvage. Before we dismantle the vehicles, we drain all of the hazardous fluids (such as oil, coolant liquid from radiators, and brake fluid in master cylinders), as well as properly dispose of the batteries and airbags so they can be handled properly, and we capture any recyclable metals to be handled in a separate stream. Usable auto parts are salvaged and reused so that the demand for new components to be manufactured will be reduced. The remaining auto materials from the vehicle are sent to our certified materials recycling and recovery (MRF). The entire auto recycling and salvage process reduces the waste and pollution in our community and the economy. As a DVLA Approved facility, we meet stringent regulations in the environment, waste, and salvage to ensure that we provide the public with green car disposal, eco car recycling, and green salvage practices of auto vehicles.
