The Future of Vehicle Recycling - Cars stripped, boxed and on eBay within hours!

Brilliant watch makes me more confident in getting OEM parts from eBay motors

It would be interesting to speak to the staff off site to see how the target times/kpi is enforced warnings/disciplinary etc. Having worked in manufacturing with these type of targets/scrutinised work rate its a horrible way to work and effects mental health and production, ultimately meaning high turn over of staff.

Parts cost alot of money and to produce! Why destroy parts? 😮

Kudos to eBay for doing this. This is the proper method of repurposing vehicles for the masses.

It's a step in the 'wright' direction, just need to do it with the rest of the manufacturing world.

Trent in uk and trump in usa 😂😅😊 .. happy Christmas 2023 guys

Was thinking about this concept a few years back... glad to know somewhere there's a sample running... great job ... reduce reuse recycle . Build to last.

There cars look better than the one i am driving

LoL... Scrapyard Alsatians. Every yard had one

Scrapping all those pretty new cars... Crazy

Amazing.

You could never have "Scrapheap Challenge" in this place.

All props to this BUT the elites do not want cars on the roads in the near future so I'm surprised this is being pushed

ABSOLUTELY fascinating! Brilliant!

Bought an engine and various other parts from Trent recently...very reasonably priced, excellent delivery times and very well packaged...been very impressed with the parts i've bought and will be using again.

brilliant to know thanx 4 sharing dude

Soon people will be unemployed with the arrival of electric cars, no one will need these car parts anymore!!

Those guys are impressively skilled and knowledgable. Think of the number of models, each with quirks for how to remove parts without breaking them--especially all of those infuriating plastic tabs and clips.

Impressive, admirable, and much-needed.

Integrity and flow, great job guys

Not before time. However isn't a bit late (like landfill) If we are going to have to shell out thousands for an electric car (in the very near future) what is the point of all these unsuitable spares. Incidentally what is the future for any petrol/diesel car if these propellants disappear?. Perhaps the future is to electrify the car we have then the spares might just come in handy

Have you seen their prices, often cheaper to buy new new.

The guy at the end in the crane has the most satisfying job in the world

only problem with this is your paying for the upkeep/overheads of the car dismantler i would rather goto a local scrap yard and pay 50% less for the same part.

This guy is making 1000,s of £,s a day in profit - and thanks ebay for its help... 😂.

Battery pack = battery

Is there any equivalent company in the USA selling on eBay?

Or to put it another way, some of these folks in Europe are not very good drivers.... think I'll stay here in the US.

Very very interesting. From a documentary production point of view maybe should have had a purely action video (i.e. no talking heads) with a voice over giving all the info because, bless him, Mr Trent is a very clever business man but he can't string a sentence together to save his life. Just saying that the video would have been more polished I think.

look at all these PETROL AND DIESEL cars that look fine, the smallest crash and they scrap them, and people complain about EVs lol

Obviously the scale of his business enables a stunning discount from eBay. However, when I sell something on eBay its sickening how much they take off me. If they weren't so greedy it would be 10 times the size it already is.

what do they do with the crushed bit in the end

This is cool. I'd like to see more of this for other products as well

This only shows how wasterful is UKm because high labour costs makes basically new cars go to scrapyard

English = mediocre. Looks good but comparing to Pick-n-Pull is just a petty man's dream.

Ugg, was liking it until the inevitable lecturing of green, CO2, doing your part for the planet, essentially I'm a polluter unless I buy from them. Really a big put off watching an extended green advertisement talking down to me. I'm so done with the green crazies.

Didn't see any quality testing or testing of any components? Also referring to the guy stripping down the door as "this guy" the CEO clearly doens't know the floor staff, which is an issue, a good boss takes time to learn peoples names, story and struggles so that they can provide a good work expierence and retain staff.

Amazing

The crushers are always my favorite part

Brilliant!

OEMs and stealers rage intensifies😂

I'd love to work there, I'd honestly quit what I do now

... I wonder how many of these come in stolen vehicles? With this method I reckon they have a better chance of finding and returning them.... Box by box.

Soon be more people employed dismantling cars than building them! Life can be hilarious! 😂

with seeing almost new cars being scrapped with minor damage, where perhaps 20% of the parts go for direct recycling.
I can confirm that in our consumer society it is necessary to put a 300% registration tax on cars, which must in no way be refundable!
regardless of driving force.
however, it does not have to expire if the car is "totally damaged" as you will be able to build 2-3 cars together for 1.

Vintage automobile enthusiasts; the original car recyclers

im amazed with this type of work, no eye ear protection, no hard hats. No OSHA over there I guess.

Most of those cars look like new, not like the've been on a terrible crash or something.
