What are roe auto parts?


Picture
ROE – Recycled Original Equipment® auto parts are the very automotive parts manufactured by auto manufacturers with the exact "fit and finish" in their makes and models. When you need a repair on your car, whether it be mechanical or cosmetic, it makes SENSE, and saves you DOLLARS, to use recycled original equipment auto parts. #ask4ROE

ROE – Recycled Original Equipment® can include parts such as engines, transmissions, doors, switches, headlights, taillights, bumpers, and much more. There can be several hundred parts on each vehicle that can be recycled and reused. That keeps waste out of our landfills and prevents unnecessary reproduction within the industry.

To ensure that recycled original equipment (OEM) auto parts meet customer expectations, many automotive recyclers employ multi-step quality control procedures. Sophisticated technology and inventory management platforms allow recyclers to maximize their inventories and provide efficient service to their customers all over the world.
