Personal Belongings<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Remove all of your personal belongings from your junk car\nbefore it goes to the scrap yard. This might include everything from clothing\nand laptops, to briefcases, bags, CD\u2019s, sports equipment, car seats, window shades,\nmobile phone holders, garage door openers, clip-on mirrors, blankets, drink\ncups, and even garbage. If it belongs inside your house, office, or garage, it should\nbe removed from your junk car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is wise to remove both the license plate and, if you have\none, the front plate, before selling a junk car. In some cases, you might be\nrequired to return your state license plate to the DMV. However, this is rare.\nLicense plates and front plates are fun to keep because they are great for\nd\u00e9cor and art projects. Typically, all you need is a simple screwdriver to unscrew\nthe screws or bolts holding the plate in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aftermarket Equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you purchased and installed any aftermarket equipment\nthat can be reused or resold individually, such as GPS navigation, stereo system,\nCD changer, DVD player, or similar electronic, be sure to remove it before\nselling your junk car. You can reuse these electronics in your new car, or sell\nthem to someone for an added profit.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roadside Kits and Supplies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many cars come with emergency roadside kits or supplies.\nOther times, drivers purchase their own tools for the job. Regardless of which\nresource you had on hands when driving, be sure to remove them before you sell\na junk car. This includes jumper cables, windshield wipers, ice removers, motor\noil, coolant, torque wrench, and more. If you can reuse it, take out your spare\ntire too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
