🚗♻️ **Written Off? You Might Be Surprised What's Still Worth Saving!**

Every day, late-model vehicles are declared total losses by insurance companies. But here's something many people don't realize...

**A vehicle that's too expensive to repair can still hold thousands of dollars in quality parts that can help repair another vehicle for a fraction of the cost of new!**

A damaged front end doesn't mean the doors, mirrors, engine, transmission or hundreds of other original equipment (OEM) parts aren't perfectly good.

**That's where professional auto recycling makes a difference!**

✅ **Quality OEM Parts** – Genuine factory parts professionally recovered, inspected and backed by warranty.

✅ **Affordable Repairs** – Helping repair shops and vehicle owners save money without sacrificing quality.

✅ **Environmental Responsibility** – Reusing quality parts reduces waste, conserves valuable resources and reduces the need to manufacture new replacements.

✅ **Supporting Local Families** – Many Ontario auto recyclers are small, family-owned businesses creating local jobs, supporting their communities and helping their neighbours keep vehicles on the road.

🌎 **And here's something worth remembering: Auto recyclers were recycling long before recycling was cool!**

For well over 100 years, our industry has been recovering and reusing valuable automotive parts and materials. What we now call the *circular economy* has been part of our business for generations.

**One vehicle may be beyond economical repair, but its parts can help keep many others on the road.**

That's the hidden value in every vehicle — and why quality recycled auto parts are **The Right Choice.**

♻️ **Quality. Value. Warranty. Environmental Responsibility.**

If you’ve had the pleasure of knowing Todd, you know exactly what he brought to the office, a whole lot of laughs, good stories, personality, and that unmistakable jovial spirit that made even the busiest days a little more enjoyable.

We’re going to miss his presence around here more than we probably want to admit. The office just won’t be quite the same without him. Who am I going to tell when I see a cool bird?! 😭

But thankfully, retirement has a pretty solid lineup waiting for him… hunting, trapping, being outdoors, and doing all the things he actually wants to do instead of coming to work. 😂

We wish you an incredible retirement filled with good health, great adventures, plenty of time outside, and maybe just enough successful hunting stories to p**s Mike off.

Thank you for all the years, all the laughs, and everything you brought to our team. You’ll be missed more than you know.

Now go enjoy the retirement you’ve earned!
You deserve nothing but the BEST! 🥂🦌🌲

Who you buy your recycled parts from matters. 🔧♻️

Auto recycling is regulated in Ontario. The problem is operators who ignore the rules.

Operating without required licences or environmental registrations, cutting corners on fluid handling and selling parts with no warranty or after-sale support puts customers and the environment at risk. A cheap part can quickly become an expensive mistake.

OARA membership comes with responsibilities. Our auto recycler members must pass independent audits under the Canadian Auto Recyclers’ Environmental Code and commit to a Code of Ethics that requires lawful, responsible business practices.

That means investing in proper facilities, environmental protection and professional operations. It means knowledgeable people who can explain a part’s condition, discuss warranty coverage and help you after the sale.

Those standards make a difference — to your repair, your wallet and your community.

Choose quality recycled original manufacturer parts from professionals who stand behind their business.

Behind every quality recycled part are people who know its value. 🔧♻️

Across Ontario, OARA members bring skill, experience and care to every step — identifying, testing, carefully removing and inventorying original manufacturer parts so they can get back on the road.

These are skilled technicians, parts specialists, equipment operators and local business owners. People who take pride in their work, stand behind what they sell and help drivers and repair shops find the right part at a lower cost.

Many are family businesses with generations of experience and deep roots in their communities. They’re your neighbours — creating local jobs, sponsoring local teams, supporting charities and giving back to the communities that support them.

That’s the value of choosing an OARA member: professional service, environmental responsibility and real savings, backed by people who care about their customers and their community.

Quality parts. Money saved. Local people you can count on.

A recycled auto part is only as good as the professional standing behind it.

There is an important difference between simply removing a part and professionally preparing it for reliable reuse.

OARA members are professional automotive recyclers. They have the experience, training and systems required to recognize the hidden value within every vehicle—and to determine which components are appropriate for another life on the road.

That professional process includes:

🔎 Correctly identifying the part and its application
🧪 Inspecting and testing it for quality and performance
🛠️ Removing it carefully to prevent unnecessary damage
📋 Maintaining important vehicle and part information
📦 Properly storing and preparing it for delivery
🤝 Providing knowledgeable service and standing behind the sale

An unverified part from an unknown or less-experienced reseller may look similar, but it may not offer the same professional inspection, traceability, warranty or customer support.

The value proposition is clear: professionally recycled original equipment parts provide a quality, cost-effective alternative to new parts. They help consumers manage rising repair bills, give repair facilities more affordable options and can make the difference between repairing a vehicle and taking it off the road.

By our last calculation, Ontario’s recycled-parts industry generated an estimated **$537 million to $806 million in savings** compared with purchasing equivalent new parts. As vehicle and repair costs continue to rise, that value is only becoming more important.

Choosing an OARA member means choosing professional expertise, accountable service and real savings—without compromising on quality.

Every vehicle contains potential. **Professional automotive recyclers know how to unlock its value.**

WHEN SECONDS COUNT.

We were happy to donate several vehicles for a safety seminar held at Toronto Motorsports Park on Labour Day.

This was a serious and important topic that hits close to home. They staged a realistic racing incident and brought together firefighters from Station 4 Cayuga and Station 12 Fisherville with safety personnel to demonstrate how emergency responders work together when faced with a race car incident.

It was a pretty incredible demonstration of just how much goes on behind the scenes when something goes wrong at the track and how important it is to be prepared.

A big thank you to Bruce Mehlenbacher for thinking of us when you needed vehicles. We’re always happy to lend a hand for such an important cause.

Impressive training and a vital reminder that when seconds count, being prepared matters. 🏁

A vehicle may reach the end of its time on the road—but its value does not end there.

OARA members are leaders in professional automotive recycling. As established local businesses, they provide exceptional service to consumers and repair facilities while creating jobs, supporting their communities and setting a high standard for environmental stewardship.

When an end-of-life or total-loss vehicle arrives, it is carefully processed. Fluids and potentially hazardous materials are safely removed, quality original equipment parts are recovered and inspected, and metals, tires, batteries and other materials are directed into appropriate recycling streams.

Approximately **85% of a vehicle’s weight can be reused or recycled.** That means less waste, fewer new resources consumed and more quality recycled parts available to help reduce the rising cost of vehicle repairs.

This is the leadership OARA members provide every day: serving their communities, protecting the environment and helping keep safe, affordable vehicles on Ontario’s roads.
