There are several ways which someone can use to junk a car. The first way is through donation. This comes about as the vehicle will be put to better use rather than just leaving it in the backyard or garage. Donating a vehicle that is in good condition is better as the charity house will be able to get some money. To be realistic, doing this is fulfilling even if you do not know the person the money is going to assist. It could be an orphan, the poor or even the homeless. Doing this out of generosity is good for you as you never know what tomorrow holds. It could be you in the same situation.
