Disposal of end-of-life vehicles

Mercedes-Benz will take back your Mercedes-Benz and dispose of it in an environmentally responsible manner, in accordance with the European directive on end-of-life vehicles.

This directive applies to vehicles with a maximum permissible gross weight of 3.5 t or less; national legislation must also be observed. Your Mercedes-Benz has for several years met the legal requirements for design with a view to recycling and recovery. A network of take-back and recycling points for end-of-life vehicles is available to dispose of your vehicle in an environmentally responsible manner. The possibilities for recovering the vehicle and its parts are continuously being studied and improved. In this way, your Mercedes-Benz will continue to meet the increased legally mandated recycling rates within the specified deadlines.
