Junking an RV in Portland, Oregon

We have a 27 foot, 1987 Allegro that leaks and the Generator Batteries are dead. We need to know where we could junk it in Portland, Oregon.
  • I would go with a listing on your local Craigslist.. Free for hauling it away, if that is the plan or put a price on it.
  • You might call one of the local Pick-A-Part junk yards and ask them. They may want it or at least tell you who might.

  • Put it on craigslist. Someone will take it for you for free.
  • Or, give it to your local public radio station. Most of them have donation programs that let you take the value of the donation off your taxes...
  • If you're going to give it away, make sure that the paperwork gets transferred over to the new owner, even if it's for "free". Otherwise you may be on the hook if it's abandoned on someone's property and it impounded. Impound fees and storage fees can really add up.
  • If I remember correctly, there is a Rv used parts yard over in southeast Portland before you get to the 205. Last year I broke a mirror on a tree limb at Jantzen Beach RVPark and called there, but didn't have one. I think I found them in the phone book.
    By the way,the limb is gone.
  • Thank you all so much. The weather is pretty bad here, and it broke down on my son on I-205. I put it for free on Craig's List and a guy just went and picked it up. He is going to come get the key nd title at 11am. Sure took a load off my mind. Thanks again.
