About

Crush Software Solutions builds cloud-based yard management software for self-service automotive recyclers. In late 2025 it acquired S3 Software Solutions LLC, developer of CRUSH, a point-of-sale and inventory management system in use at more than 200 self-service auto recycling yards across the United States and Canada, and committed a further $3 million to reengineer the platform. It is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah and is led by CEO Ryan Paterson, previously founder and CEO of IST Research.

Owns the incumbent yard management system for self-service auto recycling and is rebuilding it on cloud infrastructure with pricing intelligence, aiming to return vehicle-sourcing buying power to independent yards rather than brokers.
