Finding car parts near your business
Searching for a part does not begin with the furthest supplier, but with what is available nearby. Ottroo is the guide between fellow businesses in your region — repair shops, body shops and collision repairers — followed by dismantlers and specialist suppliers. Register now for the launch: going live in the fourth quarter of 2026.
In short
Ottroo is the B2B platform that brings together supply for new, used and remanufactured car parts. The foundation is a single search across multiple sources, prioritising nearby suppliers. Ottroo never owns the parts: buyer and seller make their arrangements directly. The launch is planned for Q4 2026.
For repair shops, body shops and collision repairers
You are looking for a part for a specific repair, but available stock is scattered across fellow businesses in the region, dismantlers and specialist suppliers. Ottroo brings that search together. Not as an online shop holding its own inventory, but as a guide to professional suppliers.
Which car parts take centre stage?
Ottroo focuses on new, used and remanufactured parts from the automotive sector. Consider:
- Body parts, such as bonnets, doors, bumpers and wings;
- Lighting, such as headlights and rear lights;
- Engine and drivetrain components;
- Electronics and interior parts;
- Usable parts from dormant stock held by fellow businesses.
These are examples of part categories, not a confirmation that a specific part is available via Ottroo today.
Assessing the right part
Start with accurate identification: make, model, year of manufacture, variant and, if available, the OEM or part number. Also check relevant details such as engine code, connectors or sensor cut-outs. An identical description or matching number does not replace verifying vehicle compatibility.
- Condition — Inquire about signs of wear, potential damage and what checks have been carried out.
- Origin — Verify who is offering the part and what information about the part is provided.
- Location — Weigh the distance against the options for collection or delivery.
- Terms — Confirm price, compatibility, delivery and any warranty directly with the seller.
Local first, expanding the search when needed
Ottroo's search approach begins with businesses near your premises. The search is then broadened to the wider region, Belgium, the Benelux and Europe. This prioritises nearby supply without excluding sources located further away.
Proximity can make collection easier and reduce transport costs. Whether a local part is the best choice also depends on condition, price and agreed terms with the supplier. A shorter distance does not guarantee same-day delivery.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I find used car parts nearby?
You can check fellow businesses in your region first, followed by dismantlers and specialist suppliers. Ottroo brings that scattered inventory together in one B2B search, with local supply prioritised. The public search function has not yet launched; launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2026.
Who is Ottroo intended for?
Ottroo focuses on businesses in the automotive sector, such as repair shops, body shops, collision repairers and dismantlers. It is not an online shop for private buyers, and Ottroo holds no inventory of its own.
How do I verify whether a used part is suitable?
Compare the part number against the exact vehicle specification and verify the year of manufacture, any facelift changes and technical attributes. Ask the supplier about the condition and request clear photos. Confirm compatibility and any warranty directly with the seller before making a decision.
What is meant by dismantled parts or green parts?
In the automotive sector, these terms refer to reused parts salvaged from dismantled vehicles, often known simply as used or recycled parts. The term itself says nothing about the condition, checks performed or warranty coverage; request this information directly from the supplier.
