What clients say about Pick Your Part - Charlotte in Charlotte (NC)
Been to this place twice and both times they inflate the prices over what they advertise on their website. Clerks are rude as hell.
Asked before I pulled parts how much they would be, then when I checked out they added another $100.
Pulling apart an engine and the A/c was still charged. Seems dangerous and illegal to me. The engine was still half full of antifreeze also. Never going back. Would not recommend to a friend (or even an enemy).
I don't usually write reviews but the employees here are worthless. Went to pull a Subaru engine and only needed the short block. I asked a staff member before I removed the engine for clarification on price as they had a poster on the fence that listed "engines now $399", with a picture of a long block (everything from valve covers to the oil pan). The website lists that same price/item as "engine assembly". I asked the guy at the counter what was included in that and he didn't really seem to know, crazy because that's literally his only job?!? Eventually he asked a coworker and said a short block was $200 and a long block was $650, ok cool. Went and pulled the engine, get to the counter and they want to charge me $350 for a short block. So I argue with the guy who told me $200 and he proceeds to just stare at me like he wants to fight me. Very deceiving and unprofessional. These guys try to squeeze every penny they can out of you by charging for every nut and bolt that's in an "assembly"
I love this salvage yard for the simple fact that it's clean all the cars are putting precise order and you can find it on paper not only that they show you a each car is if you pick this place great place to find your salvage parts
I love going to the junkyard!
It's even better when I'm prepared with tools to dismantle the parts I need!
I was visiting a friend when I ran into one of the many ditches here along the side of the road and damaged one of my wheels! So I headed to the junkyard to see if I could get a replacement wheel. The first place I visited was a bust, but the yard's owner told me about this place! Google informed me that this place was closing within the hour.
I was shocked to see the price to get onto the yard was a bit steep, but I was able to find a perfect set of wheels on the first HHR I looked at! There was a guy there whom I paid to remove all four wheels for me. I also paid to have the tires removed since I only needed the wheels, only. Then, I took my new wheels to Discount Tire and paid them to remount and balance the wheels with my tires.
The people there were very friendly and helpful!
As you can see, these new wheels really make my HHR POP!

Had similar occurrence with head price listed was 129.99 pulled head went to checkout told me cams were 70 each + timing gear... my cars DOHC so lets calculate 130 + 70(2) + 20 + environmental fee + entry fee puts you well over 300 bucks, you could get rebuilt ones from ebay for that price... 😂😂
Not paying 300+ for a possibly warped junk head... LOL
Went to get heads which are listed for 129.99 each at checkout thay charged me for the cam shafts and timing gear thank buying a engine would have been cheaper Need to list parts better to be clear for a second there I thought thay was going to charge me for the valves and springs with this being said I’m a long time customer and this just made me think twice about returning my money going somewhere else
This place has a lot of inventory but they sell the parts at a high price. It is better to buy on EBAY. I am Hispanic. The Hispanics who are at the register and counting parts have a trick. Don't go there, you'll waste time and money.
Thanks to one of the workers Nef He helped me find my Transmission for my car and Now my car is working Great and no more issues I'm so grateful for him and no giving me any problems like other workers have in the past.
Every single time I have been to this junkyard the staff are completely rude, do not listen, will occasionally mock you, and charge for every single little part attached to whatever you buy. Even if the part is a large/complex assembly- they will still nickle and dime you for everything.
Will say yard is very organized and paved but prices are a bit ridiculous and havnt matched what’s posted online. Attempted to get a steering column for an old ford and boy was I in for a surprise 340$ happen to be more than the car itself cost lol. Look on Amazon and eBay before visiting prices close to brand new parts
Too expensive. I payed $120 for an old camry wire harness that I spent an entire morning pulling off the cars engine. I could have bought a used harness already pulled off the car for less than what i payed here. I will not go back.
This place is a scam
Recently was bought a hood and being charged for non working struts and hatches that are rusty and you can clearly see it doesn’t work.
Soon as I saw that I been overcharged 50$ they said sorry no returns, I didn’t even leave yard , they didn’t even explain anything before take my card . They make money on warranty that you don’t need and on additional parts that connected to part you buying . Please be careful and don’t pay until you clearly see what you buying. Otherwise just avoid that shitty place. Very bad customer service skills.
That don’t care about you at all .
This place is a joke and I can't say that all are, but the few people I encountered there are incompetent and greedy jokers that severely lack customer service skills. Went there once and will never go back again. Also the prices online aren't accurate I was informed and they pull a random higher price out of the air on you when you get to the counter to pay. Unsure if any of the people I encountered that day were management but if they are shame shame shame. I don't normally write reviews but this experience was so bad I felt prompted to write and let other potential first time buyers be aware.
Nowhere on the website does it show you that you can find out if a part is still available. How can I be expected to drive three hours to see if the part is still available? Each yard does not have a phone number so you cannot call to find out. You also cannot find out online. Why is your company set up this way? I want to know if a part is still available and I want to see a picture of it before I drive all the way there. Is that too much to ask? Would somebody kindly contact me via this Google review?
Never buy a warranty because everything they say in the ad is a lie 90 days wary free warranty is complete nonsense and they never fulfill their obligations. Their spare parts are several times more expensive than their competitors and be sure at the checkout they will tell you to pay for each bolt
This place was nice was great- now prices are jacked so high you can spend .$1 more and go pick it at the Dealership. I shopped around for a motor yesterday and got a quote for $550.00 being the highest for a complete motor and the cashier here quoted me almost $800 on a engine BLOCK ONLY - This place will be going out of business and just lost me and all my clients from my business that have Low income to buy used parts from here as a option for them any longer and will be taking my business and customers elsewhere locally and only a idiot would buy your block for $800 when i can get a tested running complete motor for $300 less guaranteed running
If you need something Immediately it's good. However you get everything on Amazon or at a parts place cheaper. I went to compare prices on 6/8/24. On 5 items all less expensive new
This place steals your time and money. Yesterday I found the car and spent my whole day dismantling the parts. When I arrived at the place of payment, I was surprised by the price of the parts and I did not have enough money. Today I came with the money to take it and found that the price had doubled twice. I advise you not to waste your time in this place.
Good place to get parts, you have to tell them you don’t want a warranty or they will charge you. They did charge me for a wiper that was on the door I pulled. Beware of that. Still cheaper then most places. I was charged a $10 core charge. Just be careful because they want to charge for everything. Bring your own tools. They didn’t tell me about the wiper fee just did it. So ask for what they are charging you for up front before you hand them money. I did get some attitude from the clerk because I was direct and told him not to charge me for a warranty. I found the van I was looking for easily. Also just because the car you found online doesn’t mean that the part will be there. The cars are picked threw daily. No way to check but going to see if the parts there. Hopefully this review will help you avoid some mistakes I made the first time I went. Tell them no warranty unless you need one. Ask them what they are charging you for before you pay them. No guarantee your part will be there. Good luck
What a joke, stood in line for 30 mins just to pay to get in because the people in front was asking every question in the book, and then I grab my piece I need which is literally a small trim piece smaller than your hand and they charge me over 10$ for it and I ask why he said that’s their prices, when I look at the receipt it showed that I paid a warranty for a piece that doesn’t even need warranty nor did I want to pay extra 3$ for it and then not say anything.
$3 to get. They take cash or card. It is pretty organized if you look up the vehicle you need online beforehand. The row is numbered on the first car.
Grab your tools and get whatever you need. Seems like for mechanical parts you might get a unfair price. Like the guys in front me get charge $50 for an old brake booster, thing might not even work. Exterior parts and trims is where you probably get the best options
Went to go buy a spindle for a car. Couldn’t take the axle off so I cut it. And they wanted to charge me full price for a cut axle. Like come on. And other parts that I cut the wiring on they wanted to charge the full price. Pull a part is better on pricing also
Worst experience I’ve ever had. Most unorganized place I’ve ever tried to do business with. My car is stuck on the side of the highway (fast lane side). Been there for 8hrs trying to solve this problem. Went to this establishment 3 different times because they kept directing me to cars for parts that weren’t even compatible with my car. Lost a whole 8 hour shift of work. Waiting over 300$ to hit back on my account because of all the wrong parts I had to keep bringing back. And I barely have anytime to go pick my son from daycare. All because of incompetence and no organizational skills.
This place is awesome. Incredibly organized and will definitely save half of your day walking around other junkyards, or crawling up into the cars to get the part. Basically accessible by anyone. Instead of entering into a group of guys staring at you like you don’t know what you’re looking for. They have a front desk and you can ask directly for the bar you need and they will give you a row that is on. The young lady at the entrance is incredibly helpful and will direct you exactly where you need to go 10 out of 10 would recommend.
It's a nice yard and paved throughout, and the staff is friendly and helpful. But the prices are getting crazy. Prices don't match the website and change too often. One week a transmission was 300, the next day it was 450. I like the selection, but if i can drive 30 more minutes and save a hundred bucks or more, then the nice yard isn't worth it.
Watch up for the prices before you paying. They charge whatever they want, even charge twice the parts and charges you for extended warranty without asking. Today payed $150 for some miscellaneous pieces (just plastic things that were missing in my car) I think it was way too much for what I got. When I checked the receipt find out some overcharges, went back to the cashier and didn’t get any money back, they said it was correct. Of course they had a really bad actitud. I will post a picture of what they call “large center console” and charged me $18.88 for that, so you guys can have an idea.
Extremely clean yard, all paved. Makes for easy cleanup and your tools stay clean. Good selection of vehicles as always. Super convenient location. This yard is right off of highway 85, so it is super easy to reach for those in the area. Pricing is fair and the staff informed and helpful.
