In 1973 the state legislature passed the Motor Vehicle Recycling and Disposal Act. This innovative law provided a way to clean up junk vehicles from the state's landscape.
When vehicles are licensed, a fee is included that provides for collection of junk vehicles. In Lake County, when a person wants a junk vehicle hauled away, they simply call the hauling contractor, sign a release form, and the vehicle is hauled to the county vehicle graveyard at no additional charge. The contractor also removes any remaining refrigerant gas, fuel and other fluids.
If you have a vehicle ready to be recycled, call the Lake County Environmental Health Department at 883-7236 for information on how to have your car removed for processing.
