Scrap Car
Gotta' get rid of son's old car, which he miserably failed to sell.
Now flat tyres, cobwebs, bird/bat dirt and general decay. 'Tis parked down drive and permission by son to get it taken away.
Ford Fiesta Ghia M registered if anyone needs a part that is still in one piece.
Presume Hyndburn have a service or any other ideas ? Am not prepared to pay a penny towards it being removed by the way. Half a tank of petrol still there, but don't fancy sucking up through the tube to get it flowing. Yuk.

Re: Scrap Car
Sorry kate sucking tubes isn't my speciality. I doubt very much that they'll take it for free. Best you can do is say it's been dumped by your son, then he'll get billed.

Re: Scrap Car
Scrap yards will take it away but think even they might charge.

Re: Scrap Car
Have a look in the back of the observer. I know there are some adverts in Rossendale Free Press for scrap cars wanted.

Re: Scrap Car
thought they paid you for scrap cars as they have to buy the ownership and send paperwork to DVLA

Re: Scrap Car
yer, not now bert, that stopped over ten years ago. You have to pay them unless its got parts worth having, then they'll do you a favour and take it for free.

Re: Scrap Car
Strip out what might be useful and flog it then mash whats left. You might pay to have it removed but could still have money over.
