Hello Bill,
The first thing you do is go to the DMV and have the title delete or some times
call a junk title. Contact a savage yard and they normally will pick it up for
free.

I would just start calling the wrecking yards. You might find one who will
haul it away for free - I'm guessing that's the best you could hope for.
Also check Craigslist. I've seen ads for people looking for scrap cars.

It's simple. You find the title, give them a call and pick a time, and

They generally tow cars away for free if the scrap metal is worth at least the
cost of the tow. You may be able to work a charitable contribution for taxes if
you call the correct place.
If you live far from any wrecking/scrap yard, there may be a towing fee.

If you have a title it is pretty much a slam dunk, after you get the parts you

Something like that could, indeed, tip the balance.
What happens to the cold side of the heat pump? Can that be used to

Certainly,
I agree that the improvements in air source heat pumps over the last couple
decades, with operation down to as low as -25 F (albeit at low COP) has been
a game changer. For one thing, I think they have made ground source heat
pumps non-competitive due to their much higher cost. But I am not so

Or look in your local paper for somebody that will come out to your place to
pick up the car, he'll pay you a fair value of the scrap value that he'll get at
the local yard. I had a '74 Audi Quattro that I got $125 for. It helps if you

Not that it would make a huge difference, but I question the value of a
heat pump H/W heater in winter. If it's taking heat from your garage or
basement, that is ultimately taking some heat from your heated spaces,
which means you're simply using more energy elsewhere. If you could
