Honestly, this place is the best junkyard I’ve ever dealt with—no joke. The people working there are actually friendly and helpful, which is rare in this business. And the yard itself? Spotless. Like, you could probably eat off the ground if you were desperate. Most places are just piles of rust and dirt, but this one’s different.

Back when this place was family-run, you couldn’t even get in the door some days—it was that busy. Now? Crickets. The lot’s a ghost town, and what’s left on the cars is basically scrap metal. They’ve picked everything clean, even the stuff that should’ve been there. Not worth the gas money anymore. ---

Cody’s the kind of guy who doesn’t put on airs, just gets the job done. Never had a single issue here, and the staff actually seems to care. That’s rare these days. ---

Brought in 32 pounds of lead wheel weights—half clip-ons, half stick-ons, all separated because that’s how it’s supposed to be. Guy at the counter plops both buckets on the scale like it’s one price. When I pointed it out, he just shrugged and said, *"We don’t sort ’em when we buy ’em."* Ended up with $0.64 for 32 pounds—that’s two cents a pound. Two *batteries* would’ve gotten me more than that. They lowballed me by about $13, and I let it slide. Won’t happen again. Next time, I’m walking out with my lead if they won’t pay right. ---

Found exactly what I needed, no hassle. The staff didn’t just point me to the part—they helped me dig it out. Only a buck to get in, and I’ll be back. If you’re hunting for parts, this is the spot. ---

This place has come a long way from the dump it used to be. Skip Pull-a-Part and the rest—this is where you go first. Yeah, the dollar entry fee feels a little steep, but if you’re after parts, it’s worth the hunt. Just don’t expect it to be neat and organized.
