As beginner's luck would have it, we came upon a rattlesnake before we reached the junkyard. It was minding it's own business, eating a mouse. Cindy saw it first. She started barking. The snake's rattles made a weird noise, kind of like rustling leaves, but different. Robert stepped right up beside it and pushed his Y stick behind the snake's head. It would have worked except the prongs were too long and the surprised viper quickly crawled around the stick and up toward Robert's hand. Fortunately, its mouth was full. Robert dropped his Y stick, demanding mine. No objection was heard from his little brother. Having already, wet my pants, I was more than happy to give it over.

Believe it or not, you might be able to sell your used tires. If they are in usable shape, but simply need a patch, a yard car might be willing to buy them from you in order to repair and then resell them. In fact, you can actually make quite a bit of money selling used tires to the right junkyard if you shop around to find one that will pay a decent price. Some people have used this to bring in a secondary income for their families, placing ads in the local papers collecting other people's used tires for free, and then reselling them to a local junkyard.

Continue by measuring the bolt sizes themselves. Take a bolt off and measure the diameter of the head, then the length and diameter of the thread. You may find the right bolt pattern, but the bolt doesn't fit!

Wrong. The lie these salvage yard collections firms rely on is just that: that these accounts are "garbage." They do what they can (which isn't much) and keep a huge fee for the trouble.

The most important thing is to be able to tell if an auto part is genuine or not. When you are knowledgeable enough, you can't be offered products that are not meant for your specifications. Thus, it would give you big edge to have enough information regarding auto parts from junkyards.

Instead of repeated and extended attempts to collect on the accounts internally, waiting until there is very little chance of getting a significant payment, today's A/R managers are integrating an external Cash Recovery company into their internal operations.
