Its a cool place to go scour for parts if you need anything, but know that the staff here will not help you at all and pretty much everyone (except for one) has a pretty bad attitude.A few things to know:There are a couple of cashier windows facing the entrance and there are three facing the fenced area: if you got your parts from the older model areas, you have to pay at one of the cashiers facing the entrance. Otherwise, youll still be charged the higher priced for new model. How do I know this? Because on my first visit here and when I saw the lines of people waiting to pay, I had asked a staff where the line started and I was advised to go all the way to the back of the line on the fenced side - despite the fact that my parts were from a 96 Civic (25-years old), I was charged a newer model part because I was in the wrong line.-now your prices (find them online) and check what youre being charged before you pay and/or leave. Why? I came back a different day to get a couple of clusters/speedometers from the same generation civic (96 and 98) and I was charged for Digital Speedometers at the price of $26.75 each instead of just a regular speedometer at the price of $17.99 each. I didnt check my receipt until after I got home and by then, I just didnt want to drive back (this place is kind of far from me).They automatically add the 90-day warranty charge when you check out. You can always tell them you dont want the warranty.So in short, bring your tools (and a friend) and pay the $3 admission charge for each person and find a part that you need. Know that parts get taken off the car pretty quickly so as soon as you see a new car inventory that matches what youre looking for, you need to go that same day. Otherwise, you can expect most of the parts will have been stripped.

LKQ is a good place to find parts for older model cars. They have a large selection of domestic cars, SUVs and trucks. There is a $3 entry fee. Be sure that you bring all the tools that you might need. The prices on used parts are very affordable.

Best place to go for used parts and used tires. Yes, used tires. Where do you think your tire guy gets the tires he charges you $45-65 for ? Thats right ! LKQ! I actually found a brand new set of tires on a wrecked van. Too cheap to pass up .....Every brand has its own section, and they are pretty organized. Its the only place I go for used parts. Great prices too....

Fantastic funland of everything you can think of. Bring your tools, use the online inventory to find vehicles you need parts for, and good luck. I had a blast.

This place is not at all recommend. Upon calling their call center ahead of time it was determined yes they have this vehicle at this location. First and foremost the attitudes at the location are not at all professional. Not even close. Then after paying the fee to walk in and after given more or less the vicinity of where it was. It was not there. The WHOLE row was not there. The experience was really disappointing. Its a shame because I have bought from them online several times and it is always professional. This outcome wasnt pictured at all! It was to a very high standard. Disappointing! Not to mention this was a four hour drive.

Lady in the imports side is rude but definitely making the company good amount of money, adds (warranty) and doesnt want to remove until i had to ask a different cashier, will give 5 stars when she has a better attitude about things..Other than that, pick your part, save some money 🤑

The employees attitudes here are horrible. They treat you like they doing you a favor for going there. This is an out door facility. And they won’t let you in without a mask (which the governor has lifted that mandate ) but non of the employees were wearing masks!!! None!! Go to upull! Much better service. Cleaner facility! And cheaper prices!!!!

These guys have a great system! Found the car I needed easily on their website and got the part I needed for a fraction of the cost online. This is how a junk yard should work in 2021!

This place is extremely horrible, customer service experience is the worst!!! They charge you extended warranty with out asking or offering! I talk to the manager about the extended warranty and she said the system just charge it in the ticket automatically. I tried to get my refund and I was told I have to remove both door so they can remark it! Also to return core charges is a extremely hassle!!!!!

Its very organized and from what I learned today the small plastic non expensive pieces are extremely over priced and the large items you would think are to be high are very cheap so Id only use them for large parts and smells never .and everyone nice except for the rude short cashiers I advise take a cart or dolly and plenty of water none is sold there

Waited in line 40 minutes at the 40% off sale on 12/28 because they didnt have enough staff to run all of the registers only to be told that remanufactured (previously USED) batteries are excluded from the 40% off all USED parts sale although this was not mentioned by the admission clerk, on the in store signage, or on the website. I asked an employee for a written list of details/exclusions on my way out and he was unable to provide one.

Review №38

Yards are not cleaned. Parts everywhere. People tear the cars up when they pull thier parts. The inventory gets shuffled so much that you cant depend on the online list to find what you need you have to spend an hour searching. Not to mention mostly every car there is a skeleton in term of the parts that are left. I usually only go to this yard if I HAVE to.

One of the worst LKQs i have ever been to they were wrong on their website listing 3 scion Xbs and none of them they had. Half the lot was closed off marked “premium” and they wanted more money for it which i have never seen at an LKQ. DO NOT GO TO THIS LOT

Review №46

Parking lot is nice, mask is required, but there is a three dollar cover charge to walk through the gate. If you have your son with me like I did, it’s per person so get ready to divvy up six dollars or more.The three dollar charge gives you access to the older picked over cars. In my case, there were no mustangs available of the year model I needed.But on the other side of the fence there are lots of newer vehicles. A short walk through that gate, and another two dollars per person for “primo “parts, I found what I needed.Parts on the primo side were a better. But as we’re checking out, they wanted as much for the part as I could’ve bought it on eBay. Since I was already $10 in cover charges in debt, I went ahead and bought the part hoping it would work.My opinion, do you yourself a favor and go somewhere else. There’s no reason to pay a $5 cover charge just to walk around a junkyard.My suggestion, go somewhere elsework.

Review №62

They should post online they charge for admission, not just once but twice because they keep older vehicles on the other side of the fence and therefore must charge two separate fees. I had called in advance within an hour before showing up on site because an employee had said on the phone the part I was looking for is available, but it wasnt. I paid them for nothing except to waste my time.

Wouldve been 4 stara but an employee toldnus we cant go in without a mask. Which is fine. But be didnt have his covering his face. It was around his neck. So when we brought it to his attention that he didnt have his on he pullednit over his face like suddenly he right were wrong. The kicker is on the way out. That same employee didnt have his mask over his face again.

They didnt have what i needed,but contrary to what others say they are helpful. They told me which aisle and never my target vehicle was and it was right where they said. It had been picked clean though. A second vehicle that website showed there, was removed. They told me that the cars are removed after 90 days, they show when they became available, so do your math before you go because it may need to be there. The app will give you free admissions or you have to pay 3$ for older cars admission and $2 more for modern cars. They will take a free admissions coupon for either.

Large selection of all sorts of vehicles. There is a $3 admission fee and another $2 for late models. They can search their vehicle inventory to see if a vehicle that your looking for is in their lot. The can also cross reference part types. I found what I was looking for and paid $200 less than buying it new. Staff was helpful.

Review №73

1. No directions or guide given by store to find the car you want, you have to walk around and find the car by yourself. Once in the yard, there are rows of junk cars and there is no row number marked. You dont remember which row you are in previously. Even you find the car you want, the parts may already have been taken by other people and wasted your time. You need to bring your own tool to take it off, sometimes it can be difficult to take off some parts, not worthy to spend the time to take off used part.2. charge you $3 admission fee every time you go in and its cash only, good for the whole day3. 30 day warranty for the parts you find.4. You cant reach the store by phone . if you have problem or questions, you have to drive to the store to talk to workers there.5. some old parts are only a few dollars cheaper than new one, not worthy to pick your own.bad customer service.

Very upset with this company. You cannot call to make a complaint. Nobody knows anything. I come to buy A part that’s that’s listed Separately and it’s attached to another part. They want to charge me for both parts. I cannot disassemble it & neither can they. It’s very unfortunate and very scheming & low down dirty. The Spanish girls at the counter were very rude and not helping me NEVER SHOPPING HERE AGAIN!!!!

***AVOID IF POSSIBLE***This salvage yard charges an entrance fee just to look for parts.The yard is organized but extremely untidy. There are parts of cars strewn all over the ground around the parts cars. Its very difficult to walk in between cars and around cars because of all the junk on the ground. In fact, its dangerous because its hard to get a solid footing on the ground.The condition of the parts on these cars are in fair to poor condition.Also some prices are the same as new parts that can be purchased online. The prices are too high considering the condition of the yard and the attitude of the some of the employees.

NO STAR. Price gouging at its finest. Checked prices on line for a steering wheel. Price is $17.20 dollars. At check out, the unscrupulous and wanton price manipulation starts. The not so bright person at the cash register starts her/his magic and clown show. Sir this steering is made in Canada, not Mexico so there is tariff incurred, but wait it also has cruise that is another charge, and its purple. Do yourself a favor, go on ebay pay extra $5 dollars and get a nice clean shipped item to your door steps. Not worth the entrance fee of $5 dollars and surplus environment fees which accounts to almost $10 dollars just to walk on dirt and strewn parts all over the yard. REALLY NOT WORTH YOUR TRIP. STAY HOME BUY ON LINE.
