What Counts as a Broken Car?
A broken car isn’t always wrecked or rusted out. it’s any vehicle that’s too expensive to fix or can’t legally be driven anymore. Common examples include:
- Cars with major engine or transmission problems
- Vehicles that failed a police inspection (Box 1 or Box 2)
- Cars that developed mold from sitting too long in a damp garage or driveway
- Older vehicles that simply aren’t worth another round of repairs
Jay’s Junk Car Towing accepts all types of vehicles, from small cars to large trucks and vans.
Mold-Damaged Cars: When Cleaning Isn’t Worth It
In BC’s wet climate, cars that sit unused can easily grow mold inside seats, carpets, and vents. Once it spreads, cleaning can cost more than the car is worth and the odor usually returns. Mold can also trigger allergies and respiratory problems.
If your car has developed mold, Jay’s Junk Car Towing can remove it safely and ensure it’s recycled through authorized facilities. It’s a better choice than paying for expensive detailing that doesn’t solve the problem.

From Old Metal to New Materials
After pickup, every vehicle is brought to a licensed automotive recycling partner. There, it’s dismantled carefully so that each component can be reused or repurposed. Steel is melted down to form new construction materials, aluminum becomes new car parts, and batteries are processed to recover reusable metals. Instead of ending up as waste, your old car helps feed the next generation of vehicles and products.
This entire process happens right here in British Columbia, supporting local jobs and sustainable industry. By choosing broken car removal, you’re keeping valuable resources in circulation while avoiding the pollution that comes with mining and manufacturing from scratch.
