At National Recycling, we provide professional alternator recycling services for businesses across the UK. Whether you’re managing a garage, operating a vehicle dismantling service, or part of the automotive trade, we collect and recycle alternator units as part of our licensed waste management services.
Alternators contain valuable scrap copper and other recoverable materials, making them a prime candidate for responsible scrap metal recycling. Our process ensures your business remains compliant with environmental regulations while simplifying waste handling and collection.
Our UK-wide alternator recycling service is designed to make disposal simple and efficient. We accept large and small volumes, and can also collect additional waste types such as catalytic converters, airbags, DPFs, and more—all in a single load.

A car alternator typically lasts between 80,000 to 150,000 miles, depending on usage and vehicle conditions. It plays a key role in recharging your battery and powering the car’s electrical systems.
Signs of a failing alternator include a battery warning light, dim interior lights, or strange noises such as a whining sound. As the alternator wears down, it can struggle to charge batteries effectively, leading to issues with powering cars.
Understanding how long an alternator lasts and recognising warning signs early can help prevent unexpected breakdowns and reduce operational downtime in fleet or service environments.
When reaching the end of its lifespan, or when no longer needed, proper handling and disposal is key. That’s why every alternator we collect is processed through licensed facilities, where materials like scrap copper are recovered and diverted from landfill. This supports both regulatory compliance and environmental sustainability across your operations.
Disposing of old or replaced alternators? We offer reliable and compliant alternator waste collection throughout the UK. Whether you’re managing routine waste or undergoing a bulk alternator replacement project, we can collect quickly and efficiently—along with other scrap metal types you may have.
