Demystifying the Junk Car Removal Service
Considering how many vehicles are in current operation in North America and the growing popularity of junk car removal services in Canada, most people should know how the business operates.

For example, are you supposed to remove anything from your car before selling it? Does selling your car incur a cost to the vendor? Will the car be towed by the junk car removal service, or will the vendor need to hire a towing company? And what exactly happens to a car once it is sold to Kenny U-Pull? Find the answers to these Frequently Asked Questions straight ahead!
Do I Need to Remove Anything from My Car After I’ve Sold It?
Once you’ve decided to sell your used or non-functioning car to a junk car removal service like Kenny U-Pull, you should clean it out of the common items you use or have a sentimental attachment to. Personal belongings like CDs, gym bags, hood ornaments, loose change, and cell phone holders should be taken out of the car. Equipment like ice scrapers, car jacks, and tools like tire gauges should be removed, and perhaps transferred to your new automobile. Don’t forget your garage door openers and sunglasses, which commonly get forgotten in the sun visor or overhead console when selling a car! Also, baby seats should definitely be removed and transferred as well.
Not only should you clean out your car, but you should also clean around, on top, and underneath it. Clearing a path to your car will accelerate its removal as well as ensure no one will be injured moving heavy boxes or equipment during the process. Storage boxes, seasonal equipment like lawnmowers or snowblowers, and things like skateboards, bicycles, and garden tools should all be moved out of the way before the junk car removal service arrives.
Other than that, you can leave your car as-is!
