Scrap Car Market in Oshawa
Oshawa is the automotive heart of Durham Region and carries a century-long history as GM Canada's Canadian headquarters. General Motors' Oshawa Assembly Plant has operated in various forms for over 100 years, and even through its restructurings the deep auto industry ties have shaped the local scrap market. Oshawa has more licensed auto recyclers per capita than most Ontario cities of its size, with particular expertise in domestic North American brands — GM, Ford, and Chrysler — that dominate the local vehicle mix. Ajax and Whitby yards frequently serve Oshawa as well, and the overlap between Durham Region operators means you benefit from genuine competition across the eastern GTA.
