Andrews Auto Salvage LLC is a self-service auto salvage yard in Ozark, Alabama. Customers can browse the lot and buy used auto parts on their own. The yard follows a "u-pull-it" model, meaning you find, remove, and pay for parts yourself without ordering through a counter. This setup works well for those looking for affordable car parts like engines, transmissions, body panels, and interior components.
The yard is open Tuesday through Friday and Saturday. It’s closed Sundays and Mondays. Andrews Auto Salvage doesn’t buy junk cars, so if you need to sell one, check other local options or visit our cash for junk cars page.
Services & What to Expect
Andrews Auto Salvage is a self-service yard, so you handle finding and removing parts yourself. The lot has cars, trucks, and SUVs in different states of disassembly. Common parts available include engines, transmissions, doors, fenders, bumpers, seats, and dashboards. Tools like wrenches, jacks, and cutting tools are usually available for rent or use on-site, but check ahead to confirm.
How Self-Service Works
To use the salvage yard, follow these steps:
Find the part: Walk the lot to locate the vehicle with the part you need. Parts aren’t pre-cataloged, so you’ll need to identify the right make, model, and year yourself.
Remove the part: Use the yard’s tools or bring your own to take the part off. Some parts may need welding or special equipment, which the yard might not provide.
Pay for the part: Weigh the part (if required) and pay at the counter. Pricing is usually based on weight or a flat fee.
Take the part: Once you pay, you’re free to leave with it. Some yards help load larger parts onto your vehicle.
Watch for extra fees like tool rental or disposal charges for the remaining car.
What to Bring
A vehicle that can haul the part (trucks, trailers, or SUVs work best for larger items).
Basic tools (wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers) if you don’t plan to rent them there.
Safety gear, like gloves and eye protection—salvage yards can be rough.
A list of the VIN or part numbers you’re looking for to save time.
Cash or a card the yard accepts (some only take cash).

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the whole experience was smooth. The staff knew their stuff, answered all my questions, and didn’t make me feel like I was wasting their time. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Needed a part fast, and these guys made it stupid easy. Picked it up in no time, and the whole process was painless. If you’re in a hurry or just don’t want the headache, this is the place to go. No complaints here.

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much when I called to order a part—just hoping to get it fast and at a decent price. But Linda blew me away. She didn’t just find the part; she made sure I got a fair deal without me even asking, and then shipped it the very next day. The thing ended up being a little heavier than we thought, but she covered the extra cost like it was nothing. That kind of service? You don’t see it often anymore. I’ve never actually been to their place, but after this, I’ll be driving over just to shop there. She was sharp, kept me laughing, and made the whole thing feel easy. Seriously, best customer service I’ve had in years.

This is the only place I bother looking for parts anymore. The Andrews family runs the whole thing, and if they don’t have it on the lot, they’ll dig up a way to get it. I don’t even think twice about sending people their way—if you’re in the market for auto parts, these are the folks to know. Half the time, I’ll grab a part and Mr. Andrews will toss in another one I didn’t even realize I needed, no charge. That’s just how they do things. Oh, and two of their sons are serving in the Army right now. Can’t ask for better than that.

My boyfriend and I were hunting for parts for his ’09 Charger, and these guys made it simple. Not only did they have what we needed, but the price was solid. No hassle, no runaround—just good parts at a fair cost. If you’re looking for something for an older car, give them a shot.
