Derelict Cars Soon Gone

With the current holding location of derelict vehicles full, the process of removing the first approximately 1,500 derelict vehicles is to begin in mid-February. These derelict vehicles were “red-tagged” by the Department of Vehicle Licensing prior to being placed in the George Town holding area.

Some vehicles will be crushed and sent overseas for further processing. Others will be shipped whole, but before leaving Cayman, gas tanks will be removed, all fluids fully drained and their tops pressed in to help with stacking on the barge.

Owners of derelict vehicles are encouraged to come in to the Department of Vehicle Licensing to terminate their vehicles. Once red-tagged, the automobile is confirmed as being ready for collection by MC Restoration, which is supplied with a daily list of such vehicles by the department.
