Auto salvage (Seattle, Renton: price, yard, car)

[drewba]

Our 2005 car was in a collision earlier week. The damage is limited to the right side doors and pillar between them, but since the car is old and the side curtain airbags deployed, it doesn't appear to be worth repairing.

Due to the age, I only have liability coverage on the car, so it's up to me to deal with salvaging it. Right now, it's sitting at the towing companies yard racking up charges, so I'd like to get it taken care of quickly. I've received quotes for a couple of hundred dollars back to me after towing, but I was hoping for more given that the engine, transmission and most of the body is in good shape.

Any recommendations for a salvage yard in the Seattle area that was good to deal with and paid a good price?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. It looks like Billy's Towing is really only interested in free cars.

I actually got connected with an online service that offered me hundreds more than the local services and they're picking up the car tomorrow. Communication has been great so far, so hopefully that all holds through pickup.
