Scrap and abandon vehicle program

[Christian Dubrule]

I operate 2 truck out of Blackfalds AB. In my compound I have some vehicles that are signed over to me as a result of debt owing however I have some where people are in jail or I can't reach them. Some have the 15 days I can crush box checked off on the officers form, some don't. Being new to the industry how can I re-coup moneys owing and how does the Alberta scrap vehicle program work for others out there? What do they cover? What do tell customer in regards to the scrap vehicle program? I had a bylaw officer tell me I should be running the vehicles through the scrap vehicle program to cover the towing aspect and send them to collections for storage. That seems excessive just curious what others do. I only want legal answers that stand up in Alberta. Thanks
