What happens to cars when they are scraped?

Scraped cars are dismantled and their parts are either recycled or reused. The process of scrapping a car begins with the removal of any hazardous materials, such as gasoline, oil, and batteries. Once these materials have been removed, the car is then dismantled and its parts are sorted. Scrap metal, glass, plastic, and rubber are all sent to recycling plants, while other parts, such as engines and transmissions, may be refurbished and reused. The recycling process helps reduce the amount of waste that goes into landfills and also provides raw materials for other industries.
