Ok, I need the space in my garage, so my dead corpse of a Honda must go. I'm stripping one or 2 more parts off of it, and then getting rid of it. My question is this...I need info/advice on how to go about getting rid of it via junkyard.
I have no experience with junkyards other than buying parts there...so...
yeah, the car is missing some essential parts that have been sold, so driving it there isn't an option.
-So do junkyards pick up, or do I have to call an independent tow-truck?
-Do I have to pay, or will the jy take it for free?
-What do I do as far as the Title of the car?
-Anything else I should know/be wary of?

You could put it up in the Want ads for free. Thats what I would do and its free to advertise things if they're free.

I had a tow company take a couple cars to the junkyard, I have free towing on my insurance, check to see if you do.

Umm when we did our Car smash for a fund raiser we sold the car to a scrap yard and we got $$ out of it. But If u put in a junk yard ppl could get parts off of it. Where as if u scrap it thats it gone.

Could you maybe donate it. You'll get the whole tax deductible thing off it. Hehe :p Just don't know if you'll be able to since there are parts missing....but usually, you could donate a car even if it's not working.

Alot of places will pick it up for nothing no questions asked. We have had a few cars picked up by a local junkyard. A few we got money for others we didnt but we didnt care, just wanted them gone. Call around to see your options.
