The Maryland State Police are reminding citizens to exercise caution and verify credentials when using Automotive Dismantler and Recycler (ADR) and Scrap Processor services in Maryland.
These services often advertise to attract customers looking to buy or sell automotive goods, including used cars, RVs/campers, trailers, and scrap metal.
Maryland law prohibits individuals from engaging in automotive dismantling and recycling (or scrap processing) without the proper licensing. This includes acquiring or removing vehicles intended for dismantling or salvage. Advertisements for the purchase, towing, or removal of junk or abandoned vehicles by a licensee must prominently display the license number. Violators may face:
- Up to 6 months in prison and/or fines of up to $1,000 for the first offense.
- Subsequent violations may lead to imprisonment for up to 1 year and/or fines of up to $2,000.
An Automotive Dismantler and Recycler (ADR) and Scrap Processor license covers vehicles wholly or partly, while a Scrap Metal License is needed for other nonferrous materials. These licenses can be obtained from the County Circuit Court Clerk’s Office.
The Maryland State Police advise citizens to verify the credentials of these services, ensuring they are licensed through the Maryland Department of Transportation Administration before proceeding with any transactions.
Note: Individuals interested in obtaining an Automotive Dismantlers and Recycler (ADR) and Scrap Processor license can apply on the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT)/MVA website: https://bit.ly/42MnkGv.
