What happens to a car recycled in North Vancouver

North Shore cars often arrive damp, mossy and rusty underneath, but the recycling is the same. Fluids are drained and collected, the battery and refrigerant come out, reusable parts are pulled, and the shell becomes steel. AWD drivetrains and Subaru engines are often worth saving for other cars.

If a North Shore car is still worth fixing, it goes back on the road instead. There's a fuller walk-through on our Vancouver auto recycling page.

Why it matters on the North Shore

North Vancouver's creeks run fast and short, straight off the mountains and into Burrard Inlet: Lynn Creek, the Seymour River, Mosquito Creek, MacKay Creek and many more. Several carry salmon, and community hatcheries and stream keepers work to keep them that way.

With that much rain and that much slope, whatever leaks from an old car doesn't stay on the driveway for long. Recycling it properly drains and collects the fluids first.

Scrap car removal - this company will show up as promised, unlike others
I have used them twice in the last year, both times were excellent. The driver was the same both times , he's the friendliest and nicest guy to deal with, personable and professional.

Noble towing is now the only company that I will use. Service provided was professional and on time. We made arrangements for a certain time and Noble Towing was there on time and even confirmed 15-20 min beforehand. Noble Towing turned a stressful situation into something that was super easy to deal with. Highly recommend this service!

Nabil is one of the most cordial and respectful people I've ever met. We briefly chatted to the point you almost didnt want him to leave lol. I would 100% recommend him to anyone seeking the services his company has to offer.
