utomotive recyclers have long had a successful track record of rising to the challenge when outside forces unfairly impose on the industry. One only has to think back to the misunderstanding over Cash for Clunkers. Proactive auto recyclers united their voices with the Automotive Recyclers Association (ARA) and state affiliates to effect a ruling change to allow the sale of recycled parts off of “clunkers” turned in for new vehicles. This helped many auto recyclers in a down economy build up their inventory and turn a good profit.
