What to Know Before You Visit

Affordable Auto Parts is a standard u-pull-it salvage yard. You’ll search for parts on your own, remove them from the vehicles, and pay by weight. The yard doesn’t offer part removal services, so you’ll need to bring your own tools and handle the work yourself. A scale is on-site for weighing parts, and you’ll pay at checkout.

Common Parts Available

The yard typically carries:

  • Engines and transmissions (domestic and foreign models)
  • Body panels (doors, fenders, hoods, bumpers)
  • Mechanical parts (suspension, brakes, steering components)
  • Interior parts (seats, dashboards, trim)
  • Electrical parts (wiring harnesses, sensors, lights)
The selection changes often as vehicles come and go. Popular brands like Ford, Chevrolet, and Toyota are usually in stock.

How the Self-Service Process Works

To get parts, you’ll need to:

  • Bring your own tools (wrenches, sockets, pry bars, etc.)
  • Find the part you need in the yard
  • Remove it from the vehicle yourself
  • Weigh the part at the scale
  • Pay per pound at the counter
Staff are on-site to answer questions and process payments but won’t help with part removal.
