Services & What to Expect
Hooper's is a salvage yard, meaning you’re responsible for finding and removing parts. The yard has a mix of vehicles—cars, trucks, and SUVs—in various stages of disassembly. Parts range from engines and transmissions to body panels, interior pieces, and electrical components. Don’t expect professional disassembly or cleaned parts—you’ll need to prep them before installation.
- Bring your own tools. The yard doesn’t provide any, so you’ll need wrenches, sockets, or whatever else is required for the job.
- Find parts yourself. Vehicles are grouped by make and model, but you’ll have to search for what you need.
- Pay by the pound. Pricing is based on the weight of the parts you take, not individual components.
- Parts are sold as-is. Some may need cleaning or minor repairs before you can use them.
- Drop off junk cars. The yard accepts scrap vehicles but doesn’t buy cars for resale. For selling a junk car, check out our cash for junk cars page .
