Good to know

What is the difference between a self-service and a full-service salvage yard?

Self-service yards charge a $2 to $5 gate fee and require customers to bring tools to pull parts from vehicles themselves. Full-service facilities extract parts using inventory technicians, store items in a warehouse, and typically charge 20% to 40% more for the convenience.

What documentation is required to sell a vehicle to a salvage yard?

Sellers must present a clean vehicle title assigned to their name and a government-issued photo ID. Depending on state laws, vehicles older than 10 to 15 years may sometimes be accepted without a title using a bill of sale and registration verification.

What warranty options do salvage yards offer on used parts?

Most yards provide a standard 30-day to 90-day exchange or store credit warranty on major mechanical components like engines, transmissions, and axles. Electrical components are usually sold as exchange-only within 14 days, while body panels and interior trim are sold as-is.
