Junk Car Enforcement
Cash 4 Cars Akron back with the latest information on the auto scrap and recycling industry in the US. We are a buyer of scrap cars that enables you to seamlessly junk a car in Akron, Medina or Kent. We are where to scrap a car quickly. To obtain a quote for an old car simply give us a call. We continue to see stories every week about how local communities have to heighten enforcement of junk vehicle ordinances. Why do some people think that the place where to scrap a car is in their yard? Many homes will often have multiple old vehicles sitting around with flat tires and the inhabitants seem to think it looks fine. Some of these individuals are more conscientious and will use the well-known “blue tarp” to mask a scrap vehicle. To keep the wind from blowing away the tarp, they will usually place bricks upon the tarp to keep it grounded. There is no reason to be this guy who is creating an eyesore within the neighborhood; therefore, we encourage you to call for a quote for an old car from a buyer of scrap cars and have it towed away! Many of these guys claim to be in the process of restoring these cars; however, as the months go by it seems that they have done no work on the vehicle. It seems easier for everyone if these “hoarders” would simply call the best place to junk a car in Akron!
Our next story relating to the aforementioned is based in Hopewell, VA. Hopewell is a city of about 20,000 residents which is located about 20 miles south of Richmond. In the August 25, 2015 edition of nbc12.com a story was posted by Brent Solomon titled ‘Hopewell to consider tougher restrictions on junk cars’ with the following details: “In Hopewell, stepped up enforcement could be on the way when it comes to junk cars parked in public spaces or even your front yard. Police already have the authority to tow away inoperable vehicles but there was recent confusion over what really qualifies as a junk car. Inoperable cars sitting in yards create an image the city doesn’t want. City Manager Mark Haley says he understands those who are legitimately working to repair cars.
But of the more than 750 vehicles tagged over the past year, only 20 were actually hauled away. Apparently, there was confusion over when it’s actually legal for police to tow a junk car. In two weeks, city council will vote on a revised proposal. A property owner would only be able to keep two inoperable vehicles in their yards and have to be shielded from view, and per the proposal, a tarp doesn’t count as a shield. After being notified of a violation, the owner has 10 days to act or the city will get rid of the car and bill the owner. Violators could also be taken to court and if found guilty, they could be forced to pay $200-$500 for each additional violation.” The complete story is available here.
It seems strange for the authorities to state that a property owner is allowed to keep two inoperable vehicles, but that they must be shielded from view. How in the world would anyone know if someone had an inoperable vehicle if it was unable to be seen? I think the bottom line for junk car owners is to keep their junk in the garage!
