We recycle as much as possible and keep waste products to a minimum
A Street Automotive & Collision works hard to keep a "Green Shop" status. This simply
means that we recycle as much as possible and keep waste products to a minimum.
We recycle:
Oil Oil filters Batteries R-12 Freon Antifreeze Solvent Cardboard Metal products of all kinds And a lot more.
The one thing that we have yet to find
is a recycling source for plastic parts that are removed and discarded from collision jobs. These discarded plastics include plastic bumper covers, grills, and inner
fender skirts.
We have found a source that picks up about 10% of our lightly damaged bumper covers
for remanufacturing, but we're still left with a large pile of plastic parts that
must be sent to the landfill.
There are several different kinds of plastics used on automotive products and we would
be willing to sort them out if we had a source for recycling.
A Street Automotive & Collision will continue to inquire about this problem and if
any of our readers could help, their input would be greatly appreciated by us and
the environment.
