The WSP inspects wrecking yards, scrap processors and hulk haulers across the state.  These inspections are mandated by RCW 46.80 and RCW 46.79.  These inspections include VIN verification and ownership document verification for all vehicles and/or parts that are transported to or processed by wrecking yards and scrap processors.

Any wrecking yard, scrap processor and/or hulk hauler inspection questions may be directed to: Kevin Carver (360) 596-3809 [email protected].
