Barry's U Pull It in Theodore, Alabama: Mobile's Self-Service Yard

Direct answer: Barry's U Pull It is a self-service auto salvage yard at 5385 Barry Dr in Theodore, Alabama, about 15 miles southwest of Mobile. It has operated since 2005, is open seven days a week from 8 AM to 5 PM, and holds a 4.3-star Google rating from more than 900 reviews.

Why Barry's comes up so often

About 8,000 people a month search for "Barry's u pull it". Part of that is simple geography: it is the main self-service yard for Mobile and the Alabama Gulf Coast, and the nearest large chain yards are in Pensacola and further. Part of it is the hours. Barry's is open Saturday and Sunday, which few salvage yards in the area manage, so weekend repairs are possible.

How the yard works

Barry's runs the you-pull-it model. You pay only for what you take, with no upfront fee for the parts themselves, and you remove them from the donor vehicle yourself. The yard says basic tools such as wrenches and pry bars are available on site, and staff can point you to the right row. Inventory covers late-model cars and trucks as well as some older vehicles, which matters on the Gulf Coast where classic trucks are common project cars.

The lot has paid parking, and the yard takes credit and debit cards and contactless payment. Barry's also buys vehicles; call the yard or request a cash offer online.

Ratings and what customers say

A 4.3-star rating on more than 900 reviews is solid for a self-service yard. Reviews as of September 2026 mention the organized layout, the weekend hours and fair prices. A smaller number mention the heat, which is worth taking seriously: bring water and go early in summer. The gate opens at 8 AM.
