Re: Getting rid of scrap metal

yes they are getting stricter on this here too, i had to take a (smashed, obviously replaced) fender with a VIN out of my last load, then bring it back cut in half and the VIN portion removed. silly to me, silly to you, but a lot of places get burned by stolen cars. the guy said sometimes inspectors will hide around the corner and wait for a car to come in and check the paperwork. he thought that sometimes the inspectors SENT the cars in but that seems a bridge too far to me.

now i usually just cut it up in 2x2 chunks and make sure to cut or scrape any identifying marks off. costs a bit more in blades but better than needing to turn over titles for parts.
