AL Auto Dismantler and Parts Recycler Bond

Why Do I Need an Alabama Automotive Dismantler and Parts Recycler Bond?

The Alabama Department of Revenue requires a $50,000 surety bond as part of the application process for an Automotive Dismantler and Parts Recycler license. This bond ensures licensees comply with all applicable state laws and protects the public from fraudulent or unlawful practices in the dismantling and parts recycling industry.

A person, firm, or corporation is presumed to be operating as a dismantler if they possess 10 or more inoperable motor vehicles for more than 30 days. This does not include licensed repair shops or junk dealers operating within their legal bounds.

The bond and Power of Attorney must be submitted with the dismantler license transmittal document after completing the electronic application.
