Getting an unwanted car out of the way starts with a clear enquiry, not a promise of a tow before anyone has reviewed it. SMASH is focusing on scrap-car requests in Fredericton and nearby communities within roughly a 50 km radius.
Use your actual community
Hanwell, New Maryland, Oromocto, Lincoln, Burton, Rusagonis, Waasis, Douglas and Keswick are part of the current local focus. Give the town where the vehicle is parked, even if you normally describe your address as Fredericton. A radius is not the same as a driving distance, and travel arrangements still need confirmation.
Show the buyer what needs collecting
Send the year, make and model, a few clear photos and an honest description of the condition. Say whether the car starts, rolls and steers, whether you have keys, and whether major parts are missing. An old car that still runs can be different from a vehicle that has been parked for years.
Explain the pickup access
A rural lane, a locked gate, an apartment parking area or a vehicle buried behind other equipment can change the job. Include these details early. If winter conditions make access uncertain, explain that before agreeing on a collection time.
Discuss documents before the visit
Tell the receiving buyer what ownership paperwork you have. If the car is held by an estate or business, or is not registered in your name, explain the situation. The buyer can confirm what is needed before a visit is arranged; submitting an enquiry does not establish permission to dispose of a vehicle.
Agree on the offer and collection terms
A suitable enquiry is referred to a local buyer for review. Ask about the purchase amount, towing or access costs, payment and timing. There is no obligation to accept an offer, and no guarantee of a same-day pickup or free towing.
