With some cities having trouble with abandoned vans and cars left out on the streets, it appears that there are some people out there in the general public who do not have a clue about the scrap value of old vehicles. There are plenty of van scrap yards and vehicle breakers that will accept old and broken vans for a small sum of money. Doing this is bound to be a better solution than abandoning a van on the street and hoping that it will go unnoticed.

The owner of a Bristol based vehicle dismantler gave some advice on vehicles that are approaching the end of their life. He said that when your vehicle is getting close to being worn out beyond use it is always worth taking a trip to a local scrap yard to have the vehicle assessed for its scrap value. He said that by doing that vehicle owners would at least know what they could get for their vehicle before it took its last breath. He went on to explain that even if a vehicle breaks down some place else it is often possible to have a disposal company come and pick it up for no charge; all that is needed is a phone call and some talk. He concluded that abandoning a vehicle is not a good method of old vehicle disposal and it could also mean losing out on some money.
This is some good advice from someone who is well acquainted with the junk van and car business.
