Stokes Auto Parts - Jefferson, Maryland

Stokes Auto Parts is a self-service auto salvage yard in Jefferson, Maryland. Customers can find used car parts and scrap vehicles here, with a focus on affordable repairs, restorations, and DIY projects. The yard operates on a "u-pull-it" model, meaning you search for and remove parts yourself. They also take in junk cars for scrap, though pricing and purchase details aren’t listed online.

Services & What to Expect

Stokes Auto Parts is a self-service salvage yard. You’ll find wrecked, salvaged, and scrap vehicles with parts like engines, transmissions, body panels, and interior components. Tools for cutting and disassembly are usually on-site, but bring your own if you need something specific.

How Self-Service Works

The process is simple:

• Visit during business hours—open Monday through Saturday, with Saturday closing at 3:00 PM.
• Find the part you need—vehicles are grouped by make, model, and condition, though the layout can change.
• Remove the part yourself—tools like saws and wrenches are provided, but check if you need something else.
• Pay for the part by weight or piece—pricing depends on the part’s condition and demand.

The yard doesn’t offer part lookup services, so you’ll need to know what you’re looking for or be ready to inspect vehicles carefully. If a part is damaged after removal, returns aren’t allowed.

What Parts Are Available?

Stokes Auto Parts stocks a variety of used auto parts, including:

• Engines and transmissions (domestic and foreign)
• Body panels (doors, hoods, fenders, bumpers)
• Interior parts (seats, dashboards, trim)
• Suspension and drivetrain components (control arms, axles, differentials)
• Electrical parts (starters, alternators, wiring harnesses)
• Miscellaneous parts (headlights, taillights, mirrors, glass)

Inventory changes often, so popular parts may sell out. The yard focuses on common vehicles from the last 20–30 years, not rare or classic cars.
