What drives the price

Why junk car removal pricing costs what it does in Southwest Side

Illinois makes the end of a car's life final. A junking certificate lets the holder possess, transport or transfer ownership of the junked vehicle, and the statute says a certificate of title shall not again be issued for it. Once a vehicle appears on a Junk Vehicle Notification the Secretary of State will not reissue a title or a salvage certificate, so this decision only goes one way.

Nine community areas here run between 59 and 89 percent Hispanic, and the Stevenson, Archer Avenue and Midway Airport sit on top of them. Twenty-Sixth Street in Little Village and the Pink Line stops through Pilsen concentrate the street-level demand, and the old stockyards rail land west of Halsted adds yard and apron work that a residential block does not.

New City is bounded by Pershing Road, Western, the Norfolk Southern tracks and Garfield Boulevard and held the Union Stock Yards from 1865 until 1971.
