Crush is also expanding its reach through partnerships that will redefine how vehicles flow into the self-service ecosystem. New collaborations are paving the way for direct to recycler programs, where vehicles move straight from consumers and business partners to Crush yards, bypassing traditional intermediaries.
“This model opens access to inventory that independent yards have never had before,” explained COO Dimitri Gerontis. “It’s about giving smaller operators the same reach and buying power that the large chains already enjoy.”
Crush’s growth analysis identified 20 major U.S. metro areas and 17 Canadian cities with no Crush presence, including New York, Miami, Calgary, and Montreal. Expansion pilots in these key markets are expected to begin in 2026.
