Overview

A Rapid Auto Parts at 28 W Elwood St, Phoenix, AZ 85041

A Rapid Auto Parts runs a self-service auto salvage yard at 28 W Elwood St in Phoenix. Customers can pull their own used parts from wrecked and retired vehicles, which are organized by make and model. The location also sells new parts and gives junkyard access for salvaging reusable components.

Services and what to expect

The Phoenix yard has two main offerings. First is a self-service junkyard where customers walk through rows of wrecked cars, trucks, and SUVs to remove needed parts. The yard is arranged by vehicle type, making it easier to find specific components like engines, transmissions, doors, or interior parts. Second is a counter that sells new and refurbished parts, including alternators, starters, radiators, and filters for common makes and models.

Bring your own tools, gloves, and a jack or lift if you plan to remove heavier parts. Staff can help identify parts or vehicles but don’t install them. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. The business doesn’t offer pickup service—all parts must be removed on-site. Used parts are sold at lower prices than new ones.

Reviews mention quick service without hassles and knowledgeable staff. Customers say they can get in and out fast with the right part. One reviewer appreciated the team’s honesty in confirming actual mileage on engines, which isn’t common in salvage yards.

Even after jumping through hoops with ten different states chasing this part, it still showed up in one piece. Riteway nailed it.

Ordered seats and a differential for my C5 Corvette from Riteway, and both times the parts arrived perfect. The seats were in that "you’d-never-know" shape, and the differential looked fresh out of the box. They packed everything tight enough to survive a cross-country move. Hector knows his Corvettes inside and out—he pointed me to the right part both times. Second order came fast, too. Can’t ask for more than that.

Called about a transmission for my wife’s truck and Hector walked me through every detail, then made sure it got dropped off at my shop on time. We’ve stuck with Riteway ever since—good people to deal with.

Bought an engine from them that had a problem. Instead of giving us the runaround, they fixed it quick and fairly. Not many places handle it like that. We’ll be back.

Chuck helped me out last week, and I was really impressed. He got me in and out fast, was easy to talk to, and knew what he was doing. No hassle, no runaround—just straightforward, good service. If you’re looking for a salvage yard that won’t waste your time, give this place a shot.

I’ve dealt with a lot of salvage yards over the years, but this place is different. The guys here actually know their stuff—no vague answers or guesswork. And the honesty? That’s rare. If they say an engine has 87,000 miles, it *has* 87,000 miles. No surprises, no tricks. I’ve bought a few parts from them now, and every single one was exactly what they claimed. Can’t ask for more than that.

Just walked into Riteway and couldn’t believe how clean and organized it is for an auto yard. Hector found what I needed first try, and the part was in great shape. If he doesn’t have it in stock, he’ll track it down nearby. Five stars—easy to see why. I’ll be back for every part I need.
