Recycling—It Isn’t Just For Cardboard: Taking Advantage of Used Auto Parts
Many consumers don’t realize that one of the best things they can do for the environment is to take advantage of used auto parts. Sure, when we think of recycling we think of the usual items like glass and plastic, cardboard and paper, but auto parts are also a great thing to recycle. When you use recycled auto parts, you’re not only going to get a great deal in terms of price, but you’re also helping the environment.
People often have the misconception that used auto parts aren’t as good as new parts, but in most cases this isn’t true. Used auto parts are often taken from cars that have been in a collision, and the parts that are recycled typically have endured no impact, meaning they’re in ideal condition. Often, when a car has significant body damage it’s sold for salvage parts, but there may only be a few thousand miles on the engine. Not only can you get a like-new auto part when you buy used, but the prices are on average anywhere from 50-75% less than if the part was purchased new.
If you’re searching for a way to take advantage of deeply discounted auto part prices, contact NYC Auto Salvage and Glass. For more than two decades we’ve been doing our part to provide residents in the New York metro area with access to affordable, quality used auto parts.

Read MoreCheap DIY fixes with Used Auto Parts – Part 1 – Battery Replacement
Everyone who owns a car must eventually face the reality of making repairs. The cost of repairs depends upon the purchase price of parts and the cost of labor. Money doesn’t grow on trees, and repairs add up fast. One of the best ways to save money on repairs is to do them yourself. A quick YouTube tutorial, a little time and effort and a few cheap used auto parts is all you need to make the repairs yourself and reduce your overall costs.
A used battery costs so much less than the $70-$100 that dealers and parts stores charge for new batteries. At NYC Auto Salvage and Glass we carry a wide selection of batteries and can certainly help you find what you need at deep discounts. Parts are high quality and in working order so you know your used battery will hold a charge and keep your car operable.
To replace your car battery, disconnect the negative cable from the negative battery post first. This post will be marked with a “-“ sign. Next, disconnect the positive cable marked with a “+” sign. If your battery has a security bracket holding it in place, disconnect it. Lift the battery off of the plate and set it aside. Using an old, stiff bristled tooth brush scrub the connectors on the ends of the cables clean with a solution of baking soda and water. Baking soda is a base substance while battery contents are acidic. The chemical reaction will clean any corrosion from the connectors and keep the electrical current flowing without interruption. Don’t forget to rinse.
Place the new used battery on the support plate and reconnect the support bracket, if you have one. Connect the positive cable first, repeated by the negative cable. Make sure the cables do not slide from side to side and are securely in place. Start your car. Voila!
