A1 Auto & Truck Recyclers JunkYard in Air Force Academy (CO)

Honestly the best junkyard in the state, if not the region. To call it a junkyard may even be an insult. The people working here do an amazing job selecting parts, verifying they are the correct parts as well as being undamaged or working at the very least. They always communicate on time or early and are worth driving over an hour to for parts, if not more. I will forever recommend this place and they are always my first call when looking for parts.

I have had nothing but awesome experiences here. The people are super nice. Great inventory and can get some stuff shipped in for a reasonable price if need be. Will be back whenever I need parts for any of my rigs

Great service from phone call to pick up, including carrying the spare tire I purchased out to my Jeep for me. And great price!

Got a good deal with these guys for door panels for a Jeep. Great customer service and the show rooms are amazing!!!! Just be warned, it might be cold and windy af!

Absolutely worthless...If you want any kind of part you have to pay for it ahead of time before they'll even go look in the yard to see if they have to sell.

Best salvage yard around! The guys in there know what they are doing and will help in anyway they can. Thank you so much Daniel, Ethan, and Rich y'all are awesome! That's the 94 F-250 powerstroke that needed so much help and should be running today because of A-1! Thank y'all so much again!

Sometimes they're good sometimes they're bad.. Sometimes they can get stuff, and sometimes they can't.. But they are reasonable on prices.. It would be better if they were more like a pick and pull.. So you can go get your part yourself and look around and see what I have..

It was not what I expected at all when I walked in. There front showroom was a beautiful collection of cars, motorcycles and memorabilia from the past. Everyone was very friendly and they had the parts I was looking for. I'll definitely use them again.

Had the parts I was looking for got them pulled ahead of schedule So overall experience was very Easy and convenient

These people are a joke we ordered a rear end paid 800 dollars for they tell us it will be a here Monday then they said Thursday so I had to take off both days of work just for this part and the guy says for the inconvenience we will start the warranty Thursday today instead of last week how can you start a warranty when you don't even have the part ? What a joke and talk about rude cost me 2 days of work

Poor customer service, high prices almost for the price of a new item from the dealership, then they will not let phone call ahead for the part, because it takes time to disassemble. I’m not waiting an hour, SMH. So instead of keeping the money in Colorado, I had made a special order with Honda, it was $10 more, but worth it because I didn’t have to wait for an snobby company to remove a part!

Very DISRESPECTFUL workers "Scott & Rich". Scott told us one thing then we get there and he switches his story.. what kind of customer service is that? Then he was trying to fight my man? And Rich stands up for Scott? Hmm okay. I definitely will not be back.. so please do not waste you're time with the poor very poor customer service.

Sadly things aren't as good as a few years ago, when we first shopped here, today, after verification online of a part, and calling, Steve said they had 3 actually. I arrived to choose, but once there, told only 2 actually fit. The other two weren't even on the vehicles any longer, which makes me question how large inventory isn't accurate and accounted for. Worst of all, after walking to attempt locations given, we went inside and said there's no part referenced on either, (since we came for an entire tailgate, and one truck was missing the entire bed, it's not an easy part to "miss"), and we're told, "Oh I'll let them know." I saw they were busy, but not even a simple sorry. Will look elsewhere, sadly, we have bought things for several vehicles as needed over time, but my husband came once prior, and same thing, no part there. It seems a bit odd they were only willing to "hold" for me to get it if I paid upfront, but extremely happy I didn't as I would have had to wait for reversal of the charges, seeing as how there's zero tailgates ACTUALLY, not 3.

Not your typical salvage yard. This particular establishment has a full service system so you can come in and ask for a part they go out and pull it for you to pay for and take. I suggest calling ahead they tend to be busy so waiting for the part in the lobby may not be the most exciting way to spend the day.

Excellent experience! The only place within 500 miles that had the part I needed for 24 year old car. Found it online and priced fairly. Part was “in inventory” but still mounted to car in the yard. Would not pull the part until paid for ahead of time which I think is perfectly reasonable. Paid with credit card over the phone and went there the next day to pick up the next day. Before pulling the part, they tested it electrically and found it wasn’t functioning properly and called me to let me know. I only needed the mechanical portion of it so I still wanted it anyway. They continued and removed the part and called me when it was ready. Being a two hour drive, I was hustling to get there before closing hours. I called them to let them know I was on the way and they assured me that they would be there until published closing time. As a failsafe, they left the part outside the gate for me to pick up if I missed them. In the end, I made it there just in time and the owner even came out and helped me load it into the back of my truck. As another note to their helpfulness, they even saved all of the mounting bolts and had them packed in a ziplock bag for me. Can’t say any more than positive experience all around. Highly recommend.

Customer service is excellent.

I would recommend this recycler for all your automotive needs. I especially recommend Ethan , his very friendly and knowledgeable with his work. Best place to buy auto parts.

Amazing customer service!! I can not begin to explain how happy I truly am with the experience I had with A1 Auto. Mark makes you feel like family, he went above and beyond to help me in such a horrible situation. Highly recommend you will not be disappointed!!

Useless, the guy wouldn't even look up a part for me. Save yourself a trip and drive to pueblo or Colorado Springs

So I had a previous review, and they used to be great, but they've grown and seem to have gotten greedy, I wish I could say different. They're prices are more expensive than other yards in town and they won't work with you on wanting, I used to go in there all the time and their prices were fair, but I went in there for a harness and they wanted $50. I got in brand new at Napa for 25, that's double the cost for a used part that even had so copper showing where the wire rubbed, its rediculouse now, and they want $60 for a pitted headlight when you can buy 2 new ones for 90, its sad to see a place like this go that direction, but its a sad truth, I wouldn't go there anymore.😞

Seriously.. Called Wednesday afternoon after getting a quote for 1000% more and in Canada, for the same part. Gave credit card and shipping address over the phone. They called back to confirm the condition of the part was acceptable, yes, hood was on my car less than 72 hours later.

Things have changed there.. have tried to call first and for days the phone is busy all day . Drove the distance to get there. Very unconcerned about helping me. I always go there for my needs and will try not to bother them anymore. Sad because I at one time thought that they were the best.

Rude, copped an attitude like a 2 year old. When I went in by myself he tried to tell me I didn’t know what I was looking for when I had pictures of the part and told him right where to find it. Then the next time they couldn’t get a part pulled in 24 hours (after we already paid the day before) and this is when the fit throwing started. Tried to give them a second chance but their customer service lacks severely and they aren’t even that knowledgeable, nor can they look up parts which makes it a wasted drive to go in person when they act like children

The customer service is very poor.they are very slow to respond to customer requests. Then the guy wanted more money for the part. The guys were rude and disrespectful. Used to like to go there for parts I have known them for years since Colorado Springs. now I will never go back.

Amazing place. Great communication over the phone, was given the opportunity to send them photos of the part I needed so they could confirm it was the same part before I drove down. Beautiful drive by the way. Will 100% come back in the future for spare parts that are otherwise impossible to find. Thanks again guys!!!

So I dont ever write reviews but my wife (me right next to her) called A-1 and asked for prices on tires. Daniel gave my wife a price on tires. He then said he had a set of 4 that had 90% life left. He said he would take $200 but he couldnt do it on Saturday to come back Monday. I had my wife get his name so I knew who to talk with! I show up on Monday and he denies all of it!!! Like I said I was literally right next to her and could hear everything he and she were saying!!! That's a great way to do business in Fremont county! So long story short do not believe the price they say over the phone! Or better yet dont waste your time talking to Daniel I feel like there might be some screws loose!!

These guys were amazing! The showroom is so fun to walk around. They got us the parts we needed for a great price.
