Junk Car Removal Program (9/9 Update)

Haines Borough Junk Car Removal Program

For more information, contact Brad Ryan, Director of Public Facilities, at (907) 314-0648.

1. The Haines Borough will be gathering requests from community members to dispose of derelict vehicles (limit one vehicle per registered owner).

2. The requests will be collected via email (kkielsmeier@haines.ak.us), mail (P.O. Box 1209) or fax (907-766-2716) until 2:00 p.m. Friday, September 16.

3. Up to 15 community members will be selected at random to have one vehicle removed. The borough will call all selected registrants that afternoon/evening.

4. Community members will be required to pay a $50 fee to have the vehicle removed.

5. The community members will need the title to the vehicle and sign it over to the Borough by 5 p.m. Friday, September 23. Payment also is due by that time.

6. The Borough will pick up the vehicle if it is road accessible with the borough’s flatbed truck (Note: The flatbed truck is not four-wheel drive and we will not be using the ferry system).

7. Businesses will not be allowed to utilize this program.

8. If 15 community members do not sign up for vehicle removal or if after the completion of disposal activities there are remaining funds, the Borough will re-advertise for this program in the spring.
