Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying automotive parts in a salvage yard are provided. In particular, some embodiments include graphical user interfaces and backend systems that allow users to engage in remote inquiries of available automotive parts in salvage yard and perform a market analysis of those parts. A user makes a request for a type of recyclable assembly by providing the code associated with the parameters of the parts. The code is then compared to a recyclable part database that includes parts from several salvage yards. When a part is identified as being in a particular salvage yard, the user is notified of the location and is connected with on-site parts pullers. This is facilitated through geofencing and location aware sensors. Moreover, the user is provided with a market analysis to indicate the demand for the parts.

Abstract: Systems and methods for self-service recycling are provided. In particular, some embodiments include graphical user interfaces and backend systems that allow users to engage in remote inquiries of available salvage automotive parts in salvage yards. A user makes a request for a type of recyclable assembly. Examples of types of recyclable assemblies include, but are not limited to, automobiles, tractors, electronic devices, home appliances, and vending machines. The request is compared to a database of end-of-life vehicles across a number of salvage yards. When a salvage yard is identified as having the specified end-of-life vehicle, local parts pullers who are on site are notified and a communication channel between the parts puller and the user is initiated. This is facilitated through geofencing and location aware devices. Using this information, the user can determine if any of the identified parts remain on the vehicle and may purchase the parts from the SSAR facility for resale.
