A-ABCO FRIDLEY RECYCLED AUTO PARTS at 7857 MN-65, Spring Lake Park, MN 55432

A-ABCO FRIDLEY RECYCLED AUTO PARTS is a self-service auto salvage yard and scrap metal recycling center at 7857 MN-65 in Spring Lake Park. The business sells used auto parts from many vehicle makes and models, along with scrap metal recycling. Customers can browse the yard themselves to find parts for repairs or restoration, or bring in scrap metal for recycling. The yard runs on a self-service model—you locate and remove parts on your own without needing staff help for every transaction. It’s a go-to spot for DIY mechanics, car owners, and scrap collectors in the Twin Cities.

Services & What to Expect

A-ABCO offers a simple self-service experience for used auto parts and scrap metal recycling. The yard has a large stock of salvaged parts, including engines, transmissions, body panels, and interior components. You can walk through the yard to check parts before buying, and staff can help with compatibility or availability if asked.

The business also recycles scrap metal, taking in aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and brass. Customers can drop off scrap for processing, and the yard may pay for certain recyclable materials depending on market prices. If you have an old car to get rid of, the yard might take it for parts or scrap—call ahead to confirm their current policy.

Here’s what to know about the self-service process:

  • No appointment needed—just stop by during open hours
  • Parts are priced individually with no extra fees for removal
  • Basic tools may be on-site, but bring your own if possible
  • Pay at the counter after you’ve picked your parts
  • Scrap metal is bought by weight or piece, depending on the material

Parts are sold as-is, so no warranties or guarantees come with them. Check parts carefully before buying. If you’re unsure whether a part fits your vehicle, staff can sometimes help with identification.

Does A-ABCO buy junk cars?

What kind of parts can I find here?

  • Seats, dashboards, and door panels
  • Suspension and drivetrain parts
  • Alternators, starters, and wiring harnesses
  • Exhaust systems

How does self-service salvage work here?

Self-service means you find and remove parts yourself. Here’s the process:

  1. Arrive during open hours and park on-site.
  2. Walk through the yard to find the parts you need. Parts are usually grouped by vehicle type.
  3. Inspect parts for condition and fit. Staff can help with identification if needed.
  4. Remove the part using basic tools (bring your own if possible).
  5. Pay at the counter after selecting your parts.
  6. For scrap metal, bring it to the designated area for weighing or sorting.

No prior experience is needed, but be ready to do some searching and basic part removal.

Do I need to bring my own tools?

The yard may have basic tools, but it’s best to bring your own—especially for larger or more complex parts. Common tools like wrenches, sockets, and pry bars make the job easier. If you’re unsure about removing a part, ask staff for help.

Can I return a part if it doesn’t fit?

Parts are sold as-is, so returns or exchanges aren’t offered. Inspect parts carefully before buying. If you’re unsure whether a part fits your vehicle, ask staff for help identifying the right one.

Don’t waste your time here. No one told me upfront that they only take cash, and when I asked about buying online, I got different answers from every employee. I’ve been sitting here for over an hour trying to buy an $85 alternator—it’s ridiculous. Even Home Depot lets you pay online and pick up in-store. This is 2025; businesses need to update their systems. Not everyone carries cash or a card anymore. Just go to eBay—it’s faster and less frustrating. ---

Walked in here for the first time yesterday and honestly, I’m hooked. Doug was super helpful, and the guy sitting next to him—sorry, I forgot your name, but you were the one who lost your dogs—you made the whole experience way better than I expected. We brought back a bent rim we’d bought earlier, and instead of just fixing it, they swapped it out for a better one. My friends and I were so impressed we even grabbed job applications on the spot. Who knows, maybe we’ll be working here soon! ---

I don’t usually buy used car parts, but after my son’s accident, I wanted to teach him how repairs work. We looked online and found what we needed at ABCO. The online rep said the bumper had one small scratch, but when we picked it up, it was cracked in multiple spots—nothing like what was described. Still, we bought it. While waiting in line at the Spring Lake Park location, a guy asked if we needed help. He had this calm, professional way about him—probably a manager or owner. I vented about the bumper, and he listened. John (that was his name) was so down-to-earth and honest. Because of him, I’ll keep coming back. Thanks, John—you made a bad situation better. ---

If I could give this place 100 stars, I would—all because of two guys who made the whole experience great. D and Doug were so friendly, easy to talk to, and actually helped me out. If you need a quick fix or just a temporary solution, stop by the Spring Lake Park location. They’ll treat you right. ---

I’m a hands-on guy who works on my own BMWs, and this was my first time here. Compared to most junkyards, this place is actually organized—parts are easy to find, and checkout is smooth. The prices are fair, and they’ve got a ton of inventory. I’ll definitely be back for any other parts I need.
