Sometimes getting with the program can be difficult, especially in an industry that has been largely unchanged for decades. These ‘blasts from the past’ that still do business on their ‘word’ and ‘a handshake’ have vaulted forward into the twentieth century and beyond by following the lead of David Gold from Standard Auto Wreckers (www.standardautowreckers.com)
David started the Green Vehicle Disposal (www.greenvehiclediposal.com)
Currently the program has over 80 members across Canada and the USA and is partnered with over 120 charities and non-profits throughout North America. When asked what he (David Gold) is most proud of he says; “I simply love cars and being able to help folks save money while making the planet greener is a special blessing.” I also got a chance to ask him about another of his pet projects, the donation of cars to charities, on that he says; “When you get a chance to help those less fortunate in your own community it really makes you feel great, everyone that donates their cars to charity is a hero!”

In conclusion, I am happy to see auto recyclers everywhere making a difference in not only their local communities but the whole planet at large. I wish all industry took their lead and cared a little more about others instead of the bottom line.
