Catalytic converters contain precious metals — platinum, palladium, and rhodium — that have significant scrap value. This is one reason why catalytic converter theft has become a problem in Australia. It's also why we factor the catalytic converter into the price we pay for your vehicle.
We recover catalytic converters as part of our standard vehicle dismantling process. They're sent to licensed precious metal recovery facilities where the platinum group metals are extracted and recycled. This is the legal, responsible way to handle them — and it contributes to the cash price we pay you for your car.
Beyond catalytic converters, we recover all scrap metal from end-of-life vehicles — steel body panels, aluminium components, copper wiring, and more. All of it goes through proper recycling channels. Nothing is dumped or disposed of irresponsibly.
A note on catalytic converter theft
We only purchase catalytic converters as part of complete vehicle purchases. We do not buy standalone catalytic converters from individuals, as this is a common avenue for stolen goods. All our vehicle purchases are documented and compliant with Victorian scrap metal laws.
