When it reaches the end of the road, 86% of an automobile (by weight) can be reused or recycled. And that’s no accident. That’s the mission of the Automotive Recyclers of Massachusetts.
Carbon Footprint Study
By reclaiming auto parts for reuse, then recycling the steel and aluminum left in vehicles at the end of their usable life, recyclers in Massachusetts reduce the state’s carbon footprint by at least 2.2 million tons of carbon dioxide annually, according to a study completed at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI).
