Meet a First-Time Exhibitor at ReMA2026: Wheels Away

From April 13 to 16, ReMA2026 - The Show is taking over Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino and bringing together industry professionals in the recycling community to sharpen their skills, gain knowledge, build relationships, grow their businesses, and celebrate each other.

This year there's a sold-out show floor featuring plenty of new and returning exhibitors ready to showcase or demonstrate the latest recycling equipment, technological advancements, and more.

What attracts new exhibitors to attend ReMA's convention? ReMA News spoke with new exhibitor Ricky Pritchard, Director of Operations at Wheels Away, about what the company is looking forward to showcasing at ReMA2026 and why they decided to attend their first ReMA convention.

Tell me about the company.

Wheels Away has grown out of the premier company in our industry in the UK. We broker deals of buying and selling damaged, salvaged, or unwanted vehicles. We connect members of the public who want to sell their cars with buyers and collectors in the U.S. who buy the car for the recyclable materials or who repair the cars. We've found there's a disconnect between the companies that buy these cars and members of the public who want to sell their cars; our job is to help bridge those connections and facilitate transactions.

We've been part of a network that has successfully collected over 500,000 vehicles and paid out millions to satisfied customers. With a strong focus on trust, transparency, and sustainability, we're proud to bring the same expertise and reliability to the U.S. We believe selling your junk car should be quick, easy, and fair.

How did you hear about ReMA? What are you looking forward to at your first ReMA convention?

We've been aware of ReMA for the last several years and after doing some research we realized that many recyclers who attend the annual ReMA convention would be our ideal customers.

At ReMA2026 we're looking to meet and get to know recyclers who want to obtain these types of damaged or salvaged vehicles for their metal value. We've been to a few other events like the Automotive Recyclers Association (ARA) annual convention and United Recyclers Group (URG) meeting, and we met a lot of good people, and we just kept hearing that the ReMA convention is the place to be.

What are you looking forward to showcasing to attendees at ReMA2026?

We're excited to show attendees the expertise that we have among our sales team members. We pride ourselves on our customer service and how easy our software is to use and work with. We're an ambitious, expansive tech-led company that's here to provide a solution to a problem that companies attending the convention may be experiencing.
