Turn that Clunker into a healthy opportunity




Several states, along with auto dealers, have assisted in participating with programs to help clean our air.  Their goals are to rid the environment of high emissions and pollution making this a safer place to live.  In this blog, we at….. provide insight on what some people are doing to not only improve the health of the atmosphere, but to give back to their communities as well.

Since 2008 there have been several new programs that have sprung up to help cut back emissions from older cars.  One program in Colorado is known as the Clear the Air Foundation is a 501c.  They have collected over $168,000 in funds that they are using for scholarships.  The scholarships are donated to students wanting to pursue a career in automotive technology.   They focus on developing the next generation workforce.

Another organization known as Robert R. Morrison Scholarship donates up to $1K for recycled junkers to the donor of their choice.

In Texas, you can still get up to $3500 for your old scrap metal with wheels.  Texas receives air credits from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.  Your car may be considered eligible for a nice incentive during trade in if it’s a 97 or older. 

Countless states and parts of Canada are involved in some type of Cash for Clunkers or other program that offer incentives to help protect our environment. 
Call us today to find out if your car qualifies for one of these programs.
