Possibly the original feature is a 'bone yard' (american english), 'junk 
yard', wrecking yard' etc. These are where old scraped cars go to have 
parts removed and sold on for use on cars. As such they 'recycle' every 
thing they can off the car - windows, seats, engines, wheels, etc etc 
... As such they recycle more than just 'metal'

Possibly these should be tagged

recycling_type=centre
recycling:vehicle=yes

The use of 'vehicle' is fairly general and would include motorcycles, 
trucks, tractors.. Possibly some may want to be more specific?
vehicle:car=yes   etc.
