With over 50 years experience, The Locator Magazine has provided an asset to the Automotive Recycling industry in way of parts and facility location. The staff at The Locator Magazine provides the most comprehensive listing of recycled parts in any publication.
In addition to recycled parts location, The Locator introduced the 25 Most Influential leaders within the automotive recycling industry in 2005. They have continued to do so yearly, highlighting leaders from the most influential one-to-watch to the most influential innovator; the list goes on!
