A “Core Charge” is the deposit you pay when you purchase an auto part that is recyclable. Without a core charge all the rebuilt products that are offered by Automotive Parts sellers would not exist as we have no product to rebuild without getting your failed component back.

Here’s how the Core Charge works:

• The part you are purchasing contains a component that is recyclable
• The Core Charge deposit is charged at the time of purchase
• When the recyclable component from your old part is returned to us, the charge is refunded to you

To receive your Core Charge refund, you can do either of the following:

• Bring the part to PAM's Auto along with your receipt, packing slip, or core tag;
• Mail the part back to PAM's Auto following the directions on your packing slip

Some Core Charges are often mandated by MN state legislature, and, as such, the actual core charge and taxes on the charge may vary depending on the state in which you buy your part.
