Why should I Recycle my Old Catalytic Converter?
Not only are they dangerous to handle and dispose of, they can contaminate landfills and even make their way into our drinking water supply. In Australia, there is a national limit on how much of these contaminants can be in our water sources.
And that’s why so many people choose to have their catalytic converters recycled by certified companies like QLD Catalytic Converter recycling. Not only do they provide free pickup throughout all major cities in Australia, but their certified workers take great care of your used part as well. They’ll strip away anything harmful before either scrapping or recycling it for you!
Where do I take my Car Catalytic Converter?
Cars that need to have their catalytic converters replaced will generally be written off by insurers and therefore won’t be able to be re-registered. It can be hard to know where you can take a car without a catalytic converter in it for recycling. Luckily, there are services like QLD Catalytic Converter Recycling Australia (QCRCA) who exist to help. QCRCA is an Australian company based in Queensland, who provide a low-cost service for people who want their used converters recycled. Their process is fairly straightforward: They provide local pick up (great if you don’t have transport!) for all models of vehicles, and collect your vehicle as soon as you give them a call.
How much does a Catalytic Converter Cost?
A catalytic converter is a vital component in any car, truck or SUV. It is an integral part of converting harmful emissions into safe and harmless gases. A damaged or faulty one can reduce gas mileage and cost you more in repairs. These important parts are generally expensive to buy new, but with an industry-leading recycling program, you can get your old parts recycled at a fair price! QLD Catalytic Converters will pick up your used part and they even offer free pickup if you live within 50 miles of Brisbane, so there’s no need to worry about transporting it yourself.
How long does it Take?
Getting rid of an old catalytic converter can be a time-consuming task. Not only are you responsible for safely transporting it to our facility, but on arrival you must then fill out all necessary paperwork and wait for a recycling specialist to perform a thorough inspection and finally, after waiting another few days, pay for its destruction.
All in all, it can take anywhere from several days to several weeks before you see your recycled catalytic converter again. With QLD Catalytic Converter Recycling Australia we’ve made everything faster: instead of filling out long forms and waiting to pick up your piece of precious metal, we’ll pick up old catalytic converters directly from customers’ locations. This way everything is done on site so you know exactly when you will get paid.
When can I get back on the Road?
There is a common misconception that you can’t drive a car without a catalytic converter. This isn’t true. When it comes to resale value, however, having an intact catalytic converter certainly helps. If you need to sell your car, whether privately or through a dealership, try negotiating a bonus for including both cat converters and fresh mufflers on any new purchase. But if all you need is repair work done and you don’t care about resale value at all—go ahead and have yours removed.
