Every year millions of cars, machines, appliances and other equipment are being discarded; either because they are being upgraded or because finding parts for them is too time consuming and therefore buying a new one seems like an easier choice. The trouble is, due to the lack of options available for recycling, people find it hard to do the right thing by recycling their old cars, machines or whatever else they are trying to get rid of. There are also a lot of cases where a favorite machine has to be thrown out as sourcing parts for it is too hard because it might be too old or made obsolete by the manufacturer. This is where a portal like eWreckers™ may become useful.

Consider the following scenario...

John has a compressor which he really likes, it's a good old machine that served John for many years. One day the Compressor stopped working due to it's old age and John needed a certain part for it in order to fix it. John can go to the manufacturer of the Compressor and try to get the part that he needs from them, however, because the Compressor is old, the company that manufactured it doesn't stock the part he needs as the demand for those parts may not be big enough for the company to manufacture them, or they may have the part but the cost of buying it from the manufacturer may be too high.

Jim has the exact same Compressor as John's but doesn't want to fix it. Jim can take the good working parts from his machine and list them here on the eWreckers™ site. John can search for a part for his Compressor here and find the part for it that Jim has listed. By doing that, Jim will be recycling a percentage of his old Compressor and John will be able to fix his favorite Compressor. So now only a percentage of Jim's Compressor will get thrown away instead of two whole compressors [Jim's and John's]

Now imagine the above scenario with your favorite home or kitchen appliance, garden machinery or vehicle and anything else you can think of that you might need parts for. By having this kind of exchange, a significant amount of scrap metal will get recycled, but also a very significant amount of money will be saved or made from not having to buy a new machine or a new part. John saved by keeping his favorite Compressor, Jim made money from his old Compressor and now we have two very happy individuals and a grinning planet
