What happens to all those key fobs?
Here's how we give many of them a second life — while helping dealerships recover value and reduce electronic waste.
Every journey starts the same
Dealerships collect OEM key fobs from trade-ins, repossessions, insurance vehicles, lost & found, parts and service departments. Many sit in drawers because no one has time to tell what's still valuable, compatible, or working. That's where we come in.
Collected by the dealership
The dealership gathers its unused OEM key fobs. No sorting, no testing, no part numbers required.
Shipment arrives
Every shipment is checked in and documented by our receiving team the moment it lands.
Identification
Specialists identify each fob by manufacturer, frequency, FCC ID, and application — the step we take off your shoulders.
Signal testing
Each fob is electronically tested to verify it still communicates properly. Every unit is checked individually.
Condition evaluation
We inspect buttons, cases, electronics, and battery contacts. Some are ready, some need refurbishment, some are recycled.
Refurbishment
Whenever possible, fobs are restored with new cases, buttons, or batteries so they can return to service.
Quality inspection
Before entering inventory, every refurbished key fob is inspected to meet our quality standards.
Back on the road
Instead of a landfill, many OEM key fobs help another dealership, repair shop, locksmith, or vehicle owner — the journey we're most proud of.
Every key fob has an outcome
Nothing is carelessly discarded.
Reusable
Returned to service as-is.
Refurbishable
Restored with new components, then returned to service.
Not reusable
Responsibly recycled whenever possible.
Giving OEM parts a second life
Every OEM key fob that stays in service means less electronic waste, fewer usable parts discarded, more affordable OEM replacement options, and better stewardship of valuable automotive resources.
This is about more than buying key fobs. It's about keeping quality OEM parts where they belong — on the road.
