Default Junking Car

I have a junk civic that i want to get rid of. i called junk-a-car and they offered 100 dollars, but i read reviews that says they give checks not cash as stated on their website. has anyone used junk-a-car, or what have you done when junking a car. whats the best place to go to junk it, and get money for it.

Sell any parts that are still good on craigslist. Try and talk one of the potential buyers into taking the whole car.

It should not be hard to find places that will take away the leftover shell for free because it is worth about $100 as metal.
