What this is

SalvageAtlas is a free directory of junkyards & auto parts stores in the United States, organised by state and city. Every listing has an address; most have a phone number, and where a business publishes its hours or services we show those too. Listings come from open data and from the businesses themselves, who can correct their card at any time — about the directory. Nothing on the lists is paid placement.

Common questions

What does a junkyard do?

Auto salvage yards buy end-of-life vehicles, dismantle them and sell working used parts at a fraction of new-part prices. Many also pay cash for junk cars, with or without a title, and offer free towing.

What is a u-pull-it yard?

A self-service yard: you bring your own tools, pull the part yourself and pay a flat low price. Cheapest way to get common parts for older vehicles.

How much do junkyards pay for cars?

Typically $100–$500 for a complete vehicle depending on weight, current scrap metal prices and whether the model is in demand for parts. Trucks and SUVs usually fetch more.
