Frequently asked questions

Why shred license plates instead of discarding them?

An intact plate that ends up in the wrong hands can be misused on another vehicle. Shredding removes that risk permanently and supports compliant disposal processes.

Which plate types can it destroy?

The shredder handles standard aluminium license plates. Ask a Crest engineer about other formats or materials.

Can the shredded material be recycled?

Yes. The aluminium fragments can be offered for standard metal recycling.
