The Saab Recovery Concept

Take-back network




We take your End of Life Vehicle back!


The Saab take-back network for ELVs.
Since [[[DATE HERE]]] the new ELV law is enforced. For all vehicles which have been put on the market first time since former mentioned date, the take back of vehicles is free of charge for the holder (could also be owner in other countries)*. As of 2007 this is also valid for all other vehicles – independent of their registration date.

Saab offers you the opportunity to give your old vehicle back to one of the partners of our ELV take-back network.

All of our dismantling facilities fulfil all legal requirements and have been certified by independent experts according to the ELV law. Each of these facilities, all processes and the documentation of all incoming and outgoing material streams have additionally been checked by our recycling experts. The fulfilment of the strong Saab requirements can be ensured through all these companies.

After the hand over of your old vehicle the dismantler will establish a Certificate of Destruction (CoD) which you need for final de-registration. Later on the dismantler will care about the environmental friendly recycling and disposal of your vehicle.

* The cost free take-back is only valid under specific prerequisites. The main prerequisites are:
• Only for vehicles with up to 9 seats or Light Commercial Vans up to 3.5 ton.
• Vehicle was finally registered in [[[COUNTRY HERE]]].
• Vehicle does not contain any non automotive waste.
• The original vehicle papers have been handed over together with the vehicle.
