Scrap Car

Resting in Peace
Overlooker
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.
 
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.
 
Have a look in the back of the observer. I know there are some adverts in Rossendale Free Press for scrap cars wanted.
 
thought they paid you for scrap cars as they have to buy the ownership and send paperwork to DVLA
 
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.
 
theres a scrap yard at gt harwood took anges sons car about 5 weeks ago and they collected it and paid him £30. forget the name but know where it is.;) it was a non runner but it had some bits that were ok.eg tyres
 
we haven't got any scrap yards now, only crush and recycle yards, metal salvage, onyx site it is, but thats at hinckley.
 
ime sure i saw an advert maybe even on here where somone wanted scrap cars for racing

other tha that wait for neil to see this post hes due an upgrade :-)
 
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.
