Jackson County Salvage at 18905 AL-35, Scottsboro, AL 35768

I walked in looking for a simple side mirror, and they tried to charge me $50 for one that had been baking in the sun for who knows how long—it was so faded you could barely see your reflection. For that price, I could’ve bought a brand-new one with better clarity. I get that they’re trying to make a profit, but that felt like a straight-up scam. Not how I expected a salvage yard to operate. ---

The guy who picked up the phone was straight-up rude—no reason for it, just short and dismissive. I don’t usually leave bad reviews, but if someone had asked me before coming here, I’d have told them to go somewhere else. ---

The guys running this salvage yard actually know their stuff. No guessing games, no wasting your time—if they’ve got the part, they’ll find it. And if they don’t, they’ll tell you straight up instead of stringing you along. That’s more than you can say for half the places out there. ---

We were scrambling to find a replacement wheel for our 2010 Buick Enclave and heard Jackson County Salvage might have one. Turns out they didn’t, but instead of just sending us away, the owner actually took the time to call around and track down another place that did. We ended up getting the part we needed, and honestly? That’s more than we expected. Most places would’ve just shrugged and said, “Not here, good luck.” But he went out of his way to help, and that’s the kind of honesty you don’t see enough of these days. If we ever need parts again, this is the first place we’re calling. ---

These guys are solid. Whether you’re hunting for a rare part or just need something basic, they’ve got it—or they’ll point you in the right direction. No hassle, no attitude, just good old-fashioned help. If you’re looking for a salvage yard that won’t waste your time, this is the spot.
