Anyone have experiences with junk car removal where the car had no suspension or wheels(basically sitting on just jack stands) Can this still be done for free and with the vehicle sitting in a garage?

My old white Si shell no one wanted to pick it up in the 24hour I had it online .so I needed the room and I didn't wanna throw anything in there . A dude came by with his flatbed and ripped it out my garage no wheels or anything.

Do they put it on dollies or anything before dragging it across the concrete?

Most guys will want to charge you. But call around. I've found guys who will do it for free. I was told to expect some scratches to the concrete. But the driver slid the car on 2x4s until enough of the car was on the deck and was able to pick it right off the ground and slide it up the rest of the way. So id keep some wood handy incase the they send someone else.

hmm, i could weld some caster wheels onto the frame i guess, but that'll cost me probably over $100 in casters.

The only time I've been charged it was only something like 40$

call abbeydale they will do it for free they took my parts truck off my hands. if all its really missing is the wheels and it still holds most of its scrap weight it should still bring in 200$ or more in scrap. I see ark towing bring it stripped vehicles they just drag em on wood blocks.
