3,000 tons of abandoned vehicles and white goods are slated to be shipped off-island this week. Bali Steel Guam has been loading the vessel Acacia, docked at the Port Authority of Guam, with items collected by the Governor's Islandwide Cleanup project and through the Mayor's Council. Over the past year, over 10,000 vehicles and white goods have been taken out of the waste stream.

But it's estimated that 20,000 abandoned vehicles still remain along Guam's roads and in jungles.
