An unwanted car is not an overnight issue. It typically occurs over time: repairs are less worthwhile, the registration stays unused, the car rusts, and a car that used to have a purpose begins to take up space.

Some vehicles will last for many years but no car will last forever. Even the most reliable car can come to a time when it becomes too expensive to fix or its problems begin to happen so often that they can't be ignored.

The majority of people will recall the joy of purchasing a vehicle, but few people will consider what happens past the end of its journey. Vehicle exposure to years of driving, road trips, severe weather and general usage wear out quickly.
