Junkyard Black Friday and 50% Off Sales: Dates and Rules

Short answer: A few self-service chains cut part prices in half several times a year, each with its own dates and rules. Pick-n-Pull held public 50% off sales on May 22 to 25 and September 4 to 7, 2026, and its Black Friday sales have been for Toolkit members only. GO Pull-It's Black Friday page already shows 50% off on Friday, November 27 and Saturday, November 28. On November 10, 2026, no other big chain had posted a Black Friday 2026 sale.

Last checked: November 10, 2026. Sale dates and rules are from each chain's own website: Pick-n-Pull's event listings and sale flyers on picknpull.com, pyp.com, pullapart.com and its help center, gopullit.com, pullnsave.com and wrenchapart.com. Listing counts are from our directory.

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026, and Black Friday is the next day.

When is the next Pick-n-Pull half price sale?

None was listed on November 10, 2026. Pick-n-Pull's past listings show a habit, though: a Black Friday weekend sale every year since at least 2021, Friday to Sunday, for Toolkit members only.

Year	Dates	Discount
2021	November 26 to 28	50% off all parts
2022	November 25 to 27	50% off all parts
2023	November 24 to 26	50% off; engines $249.99, transmissions $149.99
2024	November 29 to December 1	40% off; same engine and transmission prices
2025	November 28 to 30	40% off; same engine and transmission prices

The bigger 2026 sales were open to everyone. DIY Dollar Days on May 22 to 25 and September 4 to 7 took 50% off every part you pull, and the May listing included engines and transmissions.

The fine print on the 2025 and 2026 flyers excludes tax, state fees, core charges, environmental fees, tire sets, wheels and batteries. The sale cannot be combined with other offers, and WarrantyPLUS is not discounted. For members-only sales, staff must enter your Toolkit Rewards application before the sale. Toolkit is free and you join in a store, so do it on an ordinary visit in early November.

Pick-n-Pull's own one-minute promo for a half price sale, from its PicknPullAutoParts channel, published May 2012. The rules have changed since.

Does Pick Your Part have a half off sale?

Not on its website when we checked. The deals page lists everyday "starting at" prices, and location pages say nothing about holidays. The old app is no longer supported, and pyp.com says the website is the place for promotions until a new app launches. An affiliate of Pacific Avenue Capital Partners has owned the chain since October 1, 2025, so old LKQ-era sale posts may not apply.

Do Pull-A-Part, U-Pull-&-Pay and GO Pull-It run sales?

Pull-A-Part and U-Pull-&-Pay share the free VIP Club: 3% back in store credit, $1 off admission and monthly member coupons by email or text. Neither site lists a public half-price day.

GO Pull-It, with four yards in Georgia and Florida, publishes its sales. Its Black Friday page, updated in February 2026, advertises 50% off on Friday, November 27 and Saturday, November 28. It prints no year, but those dates match Black Friday weekend 2026. The discount covers the part price only. Cores and warranty stay at full price, nothing stacks, and sales are final unless you buy the 1-year warranty at 20% of the part price. Call before you drive.

Are junkyards open on Thanksgiving and Christmas?

Chain	Thanksgiving, Nov. 26	Christmas Eve	Christmas Day
Pull-A-Part	Closed	Closed	Closed
GO Pull-It	Closed	Not stated	Closed
Pick-n-Pull	Not posted yet	Not posted yet	Not posted yet
Pick Your Part	Not posted	Not posted	Not posted

The closed days come from Pull-A-Part's help center, which U-Pull-&-Pay also uses, and GO Pull-It's site, which adds New Year's Day. In our directory, 138 of the 139 published listings for the four big chains show Sunday hours, and none shows holiday hours. Call the day before a holiday.

How do you make a half-price day worth the trip?

Do the math first. On October 5, 2026, Pick Your Part's Chicago North price list showed an alternator at $38.50 plus a $10 core and an engine at $318.00 plus a $75 core. Halving only the part price, the way Pick-n-Pull and GO Pull-It word their rules, saves $19.25 on the alternator and $159 on the engine. Wait for a sale on an engine, not on an alternator you need this week. Our junkyard price list compares the chains.

Cores and warranties stay at full price. Bring the old part to skip the core; our core charge explainer has details. At that yard the optional guarantee added $11.55 to the alternator and $95.40 to the engine, so decide before the counter.

No chain says what sells out first. We expect engines, transmissions and fresh arrivals to draw the crowd, since that is where the dollars are. Check inventory the night before with our vehicle inventory search and pick a backup car.

Be at the gate before it opens; late November days are short. Bring the tools on our junkyard tool checklist and a helper for heavy parts. Never work under a car someone else is pulling on, wear boots and gloves, and keep the receipt. More on how these yards work is on our U-Pull-It hub.
