Direct answer: 109 U-Pull-It, the self-service yard at 3459 Thomasville Rd in Winston-Salem, now operates as Foss U-Pull-It Winston-Salem, part of the Foss Recycling group. The address and phone number, (336) 788-9122, are unchanged. The yard is open Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM, and closed on Sunday.

Key facts

109 U-Pull-It or Foss U-Pull-It?

Both names refer to the same yard. 109 U-Pull-It was a local, family-owned self-service yard on Thomasville Road for years, and thousands of people still search for it by that name every month. It now trades as Foss U-Pull-It Winston-Salem. Foss Recycling, based in La Grange, North Carolina, runs several U-Pull-It yards across the state and into Virginia, including one in Chesapeake. The old 109 website no longer works; the yard's information now lives on the Foss Recycling site and its Facebook page.

What the yard is like

Foss describes the Winston-Salem yard as a self-serve salvage yard and scrap metal recycler. The yard has said it keeps more than 1,200 vehicles on the lot, including cars, trucks, vans and SUVs, and it posts new arrivals on Facebook. Like every you-pull-it yard, you pay an entry fee, bring tools, and remove the part yourself. The yard accepts credit and debit cards and contactless payment.

Because Foss is also a scrap recycler, the yard buys junk cars and will collect them. Call the yard, or request an offer online if you want to compare.

Ratings and what customers say

Google shows a 4.0-star rating from about 500 reviews as of September 2026, spanning both the 109 era and the Foss era. Older reviews on other sites rate the yard lower, so recent reviews are the better guide to what to expect today. Reviewers mention the size of the lot and the weekday quiet; Saturday is the busy day, and the yard closes at 4:30 PM, earlier than many yards, so plan the trip.

Before you go

  • Call to ask whether the car you need is on the lot. Rows change daily.
  • Bring your own tools unless the yard says otherwise: sockets, wrenches, a breaker bar, penetrating oil, gloves and eye protection. Our tool checklist covers the rest.
  • Ask about the entry fee, core charges and the return policy at the gate.
  • Check the listing page for other yards nearby in case this one does not have your part.
