Overview

Discount Auto Salvage at 3345 9th Ave N, Bessemer, AL 35020

Discount Auto Salvage is a self-service auto salvage yard and scrap metal dealer at 3345 9th Ave N in Bessemer, Alabama. Customers can browse, pick, and remove parts from salvaged vehicles on their own. The yard offers used auto parts like engines, transmissions, body panels, and mechanical components. It’s open to the public for self-service part removal, though it doesn’t have public reviews.

Services & What to Expect

Discount Auto Salvage is a self-service salvage yard. Customers can enter during open hours to find and remove parts from wrecked vehicles. The yard doesn’t provide professional part removal, so you’ll need your own tools and be ready to take parts apart yourself.

What You Can Find

The yard carries a variety of used auto parts, including:

  • Engines and transmissions
  • Body panels (doors, hoods, fenders, bumpers)
  • Mechanical parts (suspension, brakes, steering)
  • Interior parts (seats, dashboards, trim)
  • Electrical components (wiring harnesses, alternators, starters)
Inventory changes often as new vehicles are brought in. Some parts may need cleaning or minor repairs before use.

How Self-Service Works

To use the yard, follow these steps:

  1. Visit during open hours (see hours below ).
  2. Find the part you need by browsing the yard. Vehicles are usually grouped by make and model, but you may need to look around.
  3. Use your own tools to remove the part. The yard doesn’t provide tools or equipment.
  4. Pay for the part at the on-site payment area. Pricing is usually per part or per vehicle.
  5. Take the part with you. Some yards may ask for a receipt or proof of purchase.

Check local rules on part removal, as some areas have restrictions or require permits.

Other Services

While the yard is mostly self-service, it may also offer:

  • Scrap metal recycling for non-auto materials.
  • Occasional sales of whole salvage vehicles (call to check availability).
The business doesn’t advertise cash-for-cars, but if you need to sell a junk car , nearby junkyards often buy them.

The part was exactly what they said it would be, and the price was fair. No surprises, no hassle. ---

Stay far away from this place. I sent Solomon Garrett $1,927 via Zelle for a 2010 Range Rover engine. He never sent it, and when I asked for my money back, he refused. Absolute scam. ---

Don’t waste your money here. I bought a used part, and when it didn’t work, they told me I could only get store credit—not a refund. Before I bought it, the staff acted like I’d get my money back if the part was bad. But when I tried to return it, they were kind of rude about it. I’m not spending another dime here. ---

These guys are super friendly, but their communication is a total mess. I’ve been trying to buy a part for two weeks now, and both times it got sold out from under me. Then I find out they make the guy put work orders back on the shelf after 48 hours—like, what? I’ve been texting and calling every single day, and still nothing. It’s ridiculous. ---

I paid upfront for parts, and now I’m still waiting on *all* of them. I’ve been back multiple times, and every time it’s the same thing—“sorry, man,” “my bad, I forgot,” “we were busy, but we’ll get to it,” “it’ll be ready tomorrow.” It’s beyond frustrating. Don’t bother with this place.
