Avery County

Where Banner Elk sits

Banner Elk is in Avery County, and the census counts 1,473 people here, at 778 per square mile, with a median age of 20.7 years.

What we know about Banner Elk is what the census records and what North Carolina law requires; the yards, pits and depots we have researched elsewhere have no entry here. So the question we can actually answer is how a truck gets out, not who else might want it.

North Carolina paperwork

Then the paperwork has to match the truck

The title decides whether there is a sale at all.

In North Carolina, a lien is held by any person who repairs, services, tows, or stores motor vehicles in the ordinary course of business pursuant to a contract with an owner or legal possessor (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 44A-2).

In North Carolina, this lien has priority over perfected and unperfected security interests (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 44A-2).

In North Carolina, the facility must notify DMV of intent to assert the lien; DMV then sends notice to interested parties, including the vehicle owner (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 44A-2).

So what leaves Banner Elk

That rule meets 1,473 people in Banner Elk, Avery County, at a household median around $86,382 and a density of 778 per square mile. A truck sitting in a driveway here is a working asset that has stopped working, whatever the size of the place it stopped in.

What we take out of a place like this is sleeper tractors and day cabs, dump trucks and roll-offs, box trucks and flatbeds, pickups and duallys, and the service and utility bodies that outlive the business that bought them.
