The invention belongs to the technical field of scraped car recovery and particularly provides a waste vehicle recovery device. The waste vehicle recovery device comprises a box body, a feeding port,a sorting module and a rolling compaction roller. The sorting module comprises fixed plates, electromagnets, a swing plate, a swing unit, a storage module and a controller. A set of electromagnets arearranged on the fixed plates at intervals, the V-shaped swing plate is arranged between the two fixed plates, and the swing unit comprises a cam, a support and a guide rod. The cam rotates to drive the swing plate to perform reciprocating swing. The controller is installed on one side of the top and bottom of the box body and used for controlling intermittent powering on of the electromagnets. The storage module is installed under the fixed plates and used for storing plastics and metals screened by the sorting module. The waste vehicle recovery device is provided with the swing plate, and the swing plate swings and drives a rotary plate to perform reciprocating rotation, so that crushed materials do not possibly block a discharging port, and the applicability of the device is improved.
