United Recyclers Group, LLC Announced Today Its Designation as 'Founding Member' of EverDrive Vendor Network

URG Becomes Part of the Newest Segment of the Used Auto Parts Marketplace

AURORA, Colo., April 28 -- United Recyclers Group, LLC ("URG") announced today that they have signed an agreement with EverDrive, LLC naming URG as a Founding Member of its Vendor Network. The network is a key element of the EverDrive Guaranteed Used Parts Sourcing Program(SM). The agreement assures that URG's 300 auto recycler members can become Preferred Vendors in EverDrive's network of recyclers who supply the used parts sold through EverDrive's retail partners.

Under the agreement, URG will also provide inventory data to EverDrive to facilitate EverDrive's efforts to find quality parts to supply its end customers.

EverDrive, LLC has developed the EverDrive Guaranteed Used Parts Sourcing Program(SM) to provide a catalog of nearly 1 million different used parts to large aftermarket retailers such as AutoZone. The catalog is currently available at more than 3,400 AutoZone retail locations and is expected to be launched in other retail chains in the near future.

"URG is excited about the opportunity the EverDrive sourcing program offers to the automotive recycling industry and the opportunity for us to participate on a national level. It will make our products available to millions of new customers," says Sharon Galan, URG Executive Manager.

Thousands of parts have been sold through the EverDrive program. More than 70 categories of parts are currently offered, including engines, transmissions, door mirrors, bumpers, doors, glass and many others.

By implementing the EverDrive Guaranteed Used Parts Sourcing Program(SM), national retailers can offer hundreds of thousands of recycled original equipment auto parts for nearly all makes, models, and years to millions of new customers who have never purchased used parts before. Retailers can also offer their commercial customers a reliable source of guaranteed used parts for resale to their service customers.

United Recyclers Group (URG), a partnership of 300 auto recyclers across the country offers the quality inventory to help make the EverDrive program succeed long term. URG has implemented a quality certification program among its 300 member companies. The program is modeled after ISO 9000 programs.

Joey Woodfin, EverDrive's founder and CEO stated that, "URG's quality certification program is one of the key reasons we chose them as a Founding Member. With the help of URG and other industry leading organizations, we will set the standard for quality in the recycling industry."

"URG is a progressive group of auto recyclers that continue to work on changing the way used auto parts are viewed in the automotive industry. Our partners pride themselves on supplying the highest levels of quality parts and service in our industry. EverDrive requires those high standards for the success of their program so the affiliation between the two is a natural fit," stated Galan.

URG is a partnership of 300 auto recyclers that have worked to make changes in the automotive recycling industry. Changes that have been made include developing their own inventory management system, Pinnacle, creating a buying cooperative, offering group marketing options, and forming the Premium Recycled Parts Program.
