@@richardbrown6565 Many years ago I took parts through Heathrow Airport. Shocks and struts. Should have seen the XRAY machine operator. To them I'm sure they looked like something dangerous.
I know what you mean. some time ago I took a Series LandRover air filter through Heathrow. It's a large cylinder looking thing [looks like a bomb] I don't think I could get it through now.
Very impressive. When I were a lad, running old bangers on a shoestring, the breakers yards were a muddy field, the owner would say, "There is one down yonder", and "Fetch the part yourself and pay on the way out". Of course you loaded up with light bulbs, nuts and bolts, and other small items concealed in your toolbox. I have recently bought items on line from breaker yards with great success. Good luck to Motorhog, always hard to do it right in this business, Health and safety, and Environmental problems abound.
World Class recycler that maintains one wickedly clean yard when compared to most in America. Especially appreciated your operator's ability to pick the pieces from a car as cleanly as a crab might pick apart a dead fish. Hoping you have old VW aircooled parts and bits. Would love to assemble a right-seater one day. All the Best.
Happily appreciate an effort to save Engineering work , an asset, a job that is public beneficiary and above all to keep this globe clean from un necessary dumps.

If you want the part quickly,Call them & pick the part up at Doncaster, They will have the part out ready at the out sales office, Have done this a few times as i live not far away, Great service & really helpfull.
great work guys, good to see a company in the uk recycling, all we need is every council with a recycling plant throughout the uk to deal with all the plastics and paper/cardboard and not land fill anymore.
I work at aplace like this in australia , but our process is different . we get the cars in , drop the oil , fuel ect pull the wheels off , and the car is put into the yard . the customer pays 2 dollars to get in , and any parts they want , they remove themselves , come up to the window with their parts , pay for them , and leave . after a few months , the car is bought back in , the radiators removed for scrap , the brakes removed for scrap , the engines ripped out and scrapped , wiring ripped out and scrapped , the rest of the car , and all the parts on it crushed
Yeah, I've been in one of those yards and it's sad the amount of good stuff that's destroyed by people who will rip things apart just to get the part they want leaving many good parts that others could use broken and scattered. This system makes for cheaper parts but it's hugely wasteful because most people don't give a rat's left bum cheek about the next person looking for parts.
We have a bunch in Philadelphia. I like the U-Pull-It because I like hunting for the parts I need. And other stuff I might need. Not to mention a lot of the small stuff they might not sell, like interior parts. Going up to a parts counter and tell them what you need and paying more than double just isn't the same.
Some of those cars on the transport that were coming into the yard looked better than anything we are driving. Places like this help me keep the family fleet running.
@@bmwnasher They've probably got a 'costs more to fix than the car is worth' fault, and are worth more as a collection of parts and scrap metal than as a whole vehicle.
DAMN. That's a massive place. Never seen anything so thorough. Start to finish, proper job. You'd scream if you saw what scrap yards are like in Spain where I live hahahaha health and safety are words seldom heard here lol
Did this evolve from Trevs Motor Cycle spares ?? I Did up an old BSA c15 IN 1981 and this guy had a vast vintage bike parts in Doncaster. I got a unused double seat, tank badges etc he was a typical biker, lost one leg !
Why does the UK junk such clean, low mileage cars? Where I live in the USA cars are run until either something very expensive wears out, rust sets in, or there is catastrophic accident damage. My own second car is a 20 year old Chevy sedan with a replacement front end after our teenager ran into something. Hard enough to ruin the front plastics, not hard enough to damage the cooling system.
I wonder how often they have to go through the parts that are not selling and decide whether to keep them or move them on to the recycling section? I would imagine as parts come and go there will inevitably be parts that do not sell for whatever reason. They probably have to choose at some stage whether to keep certain parts for certain types of vehicles, and then probably rearrange their stock to suit the changing demands.
Very impressive - from the selection of what cars to recycle vs part-out, along with the desire to recycle/repurpose all materials, it seems that very little is discarded as waste... I wonder how the transition from privately owned vehicles to a widely available, on-demand autonomous-type of transportation pod infrastructure will disrupt this and other components of the ecosystem?
Anybody knows what happend to Sherneess Car Fragmentation plant. I guess that plant was to much ahead in time. One of the biggest in the world in the 70s.
Impressive operation, way beyond just a scrap yard. However, give me clambering over cars with a socket set, and getting all the bits you needed for a tenner any day!
Long gone are the days you used to go to a scrapyard for some parts for the family car, you always took your own tools as the scrap yard had none besides a hammer, a pair of pliers and a wheel nut socket on a welded arm, for the big jobs was a gas axe, those were the days that you could get killed in there no problem. They were dangerous places but you used to go home knowing that you had saved ten quid and had all the relevant nuts and bolts you had lost taking the part out. Them were great times. Unlike the modern versions that are like this one, an operating theatre that extracted that elusive part you always wanted but couldn’t get any of eBay as everyone else wanted the same bits. On a serious note this place looks epic , must be one of the biggest I have ever seen so far and wish them well for the future, plus keep the number handy just in case, no where’s my dads cantilever toolbox gone full of AF spanner....🤪
Do not forget the needed wellies for tramping through several inches of mud and oil mix that was the ground. Climbing three high stacks of cars only to find the part you wanted had already been taken, no records kept of what cars they had nor what parts had already been sold.
K Welton well said, you used to come out a few pounds heavier due to the oil mud mix that stuck to you greater than the Inland Revenue, wellies or boots were changed to clean shoes whilst the two lumps went into an old carrier bag. LoL great times!
Iv been to metal recycling centers were good cars are scrapped . Oil and fuel drained, then crushed. Full set of lights that would be the best part of 1000 quid from a dealer, left on ,4 doors left on, boot and bonnet left on. All perfect, the engine had blown the rest of the car was ok...
You know they buy in only 1000 or 1200 in Dubai than sell the engine at 4000 aed front and back bumper rims axle seats and every small part which give them a good price
You know, if used-up consumer goods, including cars and appliances, had to be returned to the manufacturer to deal with rather than taking them to a local dump or junk yard, manufacturers would design with recyclability and reusability in mind. The key is to make it the manufacturer's problem--not the consumer's or the municipality's.
Good point. Especially sense they all look totally drivable. Kinda makes ya wonder why such newer cars are sent to places like this. Hell I live in the UK and I don't get it

Some set up there guys , its a great video of whats going on its great to see parts being recycled and re used best of luck , do you sell much stuff in ireland , do you sell out of england to other countries , just woundering thats all
It's shocking to see some vehicles with low mileage being scrapped. A little bit of work on them and they would be fine for a few more years. Very wasteful.
@@rogeronslow1498 yes it can seem wastefull but who wants to drive an old junker. And its down to economics as past 12 years old a car is worth more broken up.
