Overview

A & T Auto Salvage Inc. - Jamaica, New York

A & T Auto Salvage Inc. is a self-service auto salvage yard in Jamaica, New York. Customers can browse used auto parts, scrap metal, and vehicles for repair or resale. The yard follows a "u-pull-it" model, where visitors find and remove parts themselves using their own tools. It’s a go-to spot for mechanics, DIY car owners, and scrap metal buyers in Queens. The business also handles vehicle removals and may buy junk cars, but policies vary—call ahead to confirm.

Services & What to Expect

A & T Auto Salvage Inc. is a self-service yard. Customers search for and remove parts on their own. The lot holds salvaged, totaled, and end-of-life vehicles, along with scrap metal. Here’s what you’ll find:

  • Self-service parts removal: You locate and remove parts yourself. The yard has basic tools for rent or sale, but bringing your own is best.
  • Wide part selection: Common parts like engines, transmissions, doors, and bumpers are usually in stock, though inventory changes daily. Rare or high-demand parts may not be available.
  • Scrap metal sales: Copper, aluminum, and steel are sold by the pound. Prices change with market conditions.
  • Vehicle removal: The yard may tow and remove junk cars. If you need to get rid of an old vehicle, check their policies or see our junk car buying guide for other options.
  • No appointment needed: Walk-ins are welcome during business hours. No registration or membership is required.

Before visiting, bring:

  • A clear idea of the part or vehicle you need (make, model, year, and part number if possible).
  • Tools for part removal (wrenches, sockets, pry bars, etc.).
  • Cash or a debit/credit card (some purchases may need exact change).
  • Transport for parts (a truck, trailer, or roof rack helps for larger items).

The yard doesn’t offer professional disassembly. You must remove parts yourself, and staff won’t help locate or remove them beyond basic guidance.

How does self-service auto salvage work at A & T Auto Salvage Inc.?

Self-service means you handle everything:

I was looking to buy a $500 radio receiver from this place, but they don’t even offer a warranty. What’s the point? If it quits working after a couple days, I’m just out $500 with nothing to show for it. Doesn’t make any sense at all. ---

The new people running this place have really turned things around. I’ve been coming here for a while now, and I always manage to find what I need without overpaying. Picked up an engine for my Altima here, and the service was top-notch. No complaints. ---

Tried selling them my car at a price lower than what I was asking, and they couldn’t even be bothered to show up when we agreed. Then they had the nerve to come back another day and try to lowball me even more. Yeah, they might have decent parts, but dealing with them is a nightmare. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. ---

Andrew Ming knows his stuff when it comes to cars—answered every question I had and made the whole process easy. You could tell he actually wanted to help, not just push a sale. This is the only salvage yard I’ll be going to for parts from now on. Thanks, Andrew!
