Who can use SMASH?

SMASH is strictly B2B. Registered recycling yards, scrap processors, auto dismantlers, and licensed buyers — every participant is manually vetted before gaining access.

What can I sell?

Catalytic converters, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, auto parts and cores, lead batteries, e-waste, and mixed or specialty scrap. If your yard processes it, the category system handles it.

How does the bidding work?

You document lots with photos, serials, and VIN lookups. Vetted buyers inspect and place competitive bids. You review every offer and pick the winner — SMASH never forces a sale.
