What happens to a car recycled in Burnaby

A Burnaby car's last trip starts with the flatbed. Once it's off your property, the oil, coolant, brake and transmission fluid and any fuel are drained into containers, the battery comes out, and the air conditioning refrigerant is recovered. Then anything reusable is pulled, and the rest goes for shredding.

If a Burnaby car turns out to be worth repairing, it skips all of this and goes back on the road instead. Our step-by-step guide to auto recycling covers each stage in more detail.

Why it matters in Burnaby

Rain that falls on Burnaby's streets and driveways runs into storm drains that feed Still Creek, Burnaby Lake and the Brunette River, and from there the Fraser. Still Creek spent decades too polluted for salmon, and it has taken years of restoration work to bring them back.

An old car that sits for years can leak oil, coolant and brake fluid onto the pavement, and every heavy rain washes some of it toward those creeks. Recycling it properly means the fluids are drained and collected before they get the chance.

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!

Auto recycling in Burnaby: questions

Is there a place in Burnaby to drop off a car for recycling?

You don't need one. We come to you anywhere in Burnaby, collect the car free, and pay you for it.

Can you recycle a car that's stuck in an underground parkade?

Usually. Send the level and the clearance height, and we'll confirm before booking.

Do you pay for cars that are only good for recycling?

Yes. Even a worn-out car has value in its metal and parts.

Is a car from Big Bend or a business lot treated differently?

No. Business vehicles are recycled the same way. We can take several in one visit, and each one is priced separately.
