Scrapper that'll collect - Dublin?

    I'm finishing up stripping a Volvo 1800ES - just the body, chassis, suspension, lower block, gearbox, driveshaft left. The expected route to shift it on has fallen through, so I need to find an alternative. Bonus points if I get cash in hand for my leftovers, but it's more important that they'll take it off my hands. South County Dublin.

    Any suggestions?

    theres the usual way via the council, but that costs you,
    not sure if thats what your looking for.

    My understanding was that there's enough profit in scrap once again that you can get free collection from commerical scrappers, or (a small) payment.

    Is the car really far gone condition-wise?

    Rusted out around headlamps, front indicators, bonnet hinge area (really badly), front arches, sills, various parts of doors, hatch surround (really badly), under rear bumpers, above rear side window on passenger side. It'd cost way too much to restore.

    I don't doubt it - but it's going to wear out it's welcome in my Da's yard pretty quickly - don't have the luxury of waiting for tyre-kickers (even if it had, eh, tyres).
