The one i'm thinking of have some dodgy truck with a crane on the back, they won't accept it if it has tyres on it.
Truck is green.
I know that all cars has a tow truck or 2 so they might pick it up?

Is the car on blocks?
Just had a ST202 hauled off by the local "take it away free" guy. The car was sitting on double stack of old tyres and he was able to load it up no worries. Then again he had one of the new movable deck tow trucks that move the deck back and down to get underneath. Was joking about how easy towies had it these days.
Check your local council website for car body disposal, or ring them up. Some councils allow free dumping at the local tip, or they may keep a list of local scrappies.
