Why buy new when the quality OEM part you need could already be sitting on our shelves?

Choosing green parts from Charles Trent can mean significant savings on your vehicle repair costs, without moving away from original manufacturer components.

But price is only part of it.

Every quality recycled OEM part we sell has been professionally removed and inspected throughout our operation before passing final quality control. If it doesn’t meet our standards, it doesn’t make it onto the shelf.

You’re also choosing to reuse a perfectly good component rather than relying on a newly manufactured replacement, helping keep valuable parts in circulation for longer.

With more than 130,000 live parts, a huge variety of makes and models, and next-day delivery on eligible orders placed before 3 pm, green parts become a pretty practical alternative to buying new.

What does the future look like for green parts?

As Jordon explains, the use of quality recycled OEM components is continuing to grow across the automotive repair industry.

With pressure to reduce repair costs, improve parts availability and lower the environmental impact of vehicle repairs, green parts are becoming an increasingly important part of the solution.

As technology, livestock visibility and industry confidence continue to develop, we believe the demand for recycled vehicle parts will only move in one direction.
