They sell used parts from salvaged vehicles and new aftermarket parts for cars, trucks, and SUVs. Customers can browse the yard on their own or ask staff for help finding what they need.

What to Know Before You Visit

Mendoza’s is a self-service salvage yard, meaning you’ll search the lot yourself for parts. They stock used parts from wrecked vehicles—engines, transmissions, body panels, interior pieces, and mechanical components—as well as new aftermarket parts for common vehicles.

How Self-Service Works

Walk the yard during open hours to find parts. Staff can help identify parts or point you in the right direction if you’re looking for something specific. Basic tools are on-site for simple disassembly, but bring your own if you plan to remove parts yourself. The yard doesn’t offer part removal as a service.

What to Bring

  • A vehicle description or VIN for the part you need
  • Tools (if you’ll remove parts yourself)
  • Cash or a card (credit/debit may be accepted)
  • A way to haul parts (some are heavy or bulky)

Selling Your Junk Car

Mendoza’s buys old, damaged, or non-running vehicles through their cash for junk cars program. Call ahead to check if they’re taking cars and what they pay. Details aren’t listed online, so a quick call saves time.

Pricing & Payments

Used parts are priced by the yard and depend on condition, demand, and the vehicle. New aftermarket parts may be at MSRP or discounted. Always confirm the price before buying. The yard doesn’t post a full inventory or pricing list online.
