Braven Auto & Metals JunkYard in Everett (WA)

Quick and easy truck pick up for sell. Got a good value and they came to picked it up in the exact time they gave. Got my money and my truck picked up, it was such an easy experience.

Called all day Saturday with no answer even after going through the steps online to get an offer and schedule pickup. I got a notification I’d get a call from them on Friday and they never called so I spent my Saturday calling them.

When you take some scrap metal into a parts yard and they write you a check... I should be able to caus it... They are shady ..I will not go back I will gladly take my scrap to S.&S recycle in Everett were they treat you right... Bravn is a joke

They get extra points for being open late on Saturdays. But they pay dog doo for bare bright copper wire. Literally less than 2 dollars a pound when most places pay over 3 dollars per pound. Which cost then their 4th star.

I have found this place to be one of the better priced places to find used parts. I have gotten used tires from them on multiple occasions when I am in a money crunch to get me by until I can afford to go to discount tires & get all new tires. The younger ladies that work the tills in the parts yard have been super helpful in the past especially when they don't have the specific interchangeable parts vehicle in the yard. In providing a short list of parts & how much they charge for them. As long as it's not crazy busy, an a huge list. you are kind & polite. They have always treated me with respect kindness & been super helpful.

THIEVES!! SCAMMERS!! LIARS!! TOTAL RIP OFF!! THEY'RE OWN BANK WILL NOT CASH THEIR CHECKS. ONLY GOT $1.85 PER POUND FOR COPPER PIPE. DONOT GO HERE!! THIEVES!! TOTAL THIEVES!! SCAM!!

Tow truck driver was extremely patient and understanding, highly recommended using their Services

Came in with a stuck lug nut and hard to remove secret lug nuts. I came in and they removed all of them and did not charge me. Highly knowledgeable and skilled!

OMG do not sell your car to this place! I went to the bank that the check was issued from and they just flat out said they won't cash checks from this company anymore. There own bank won't cash there own checks! The teller literally told me to try cashing it at a Fred Meyer but didn't seem very confident in my success in doing so and told me if they don't cash it either then I need to contact Braven Metals and work it out with them. I've never once heard of a bank refusing to cash a check written by one of there account holders since they should be able to view if the funds are available or not. They already took my car. This is turning into such a nighmare.

Josh and the other associates, were kind and understanding. I would highly recommend!

Staff is great, Junk yard is setup so the car or cars with the parts you are looking for are rather easy to find, staff is helpful. The cars are setup safely and high enough up so that stripping them down does not mean bending over constantly. I was able to get good body panel parts, undamaged for most of the front end of my old battle wagon. Unlike other yards I have been to, the staff here does not damage the vehicles or parts on them, well, until they go into the grinder anyway. You want good used parts and body panels, this is the place to go first.

I needed to scrap a vehicle that no longer was drivable for me and couldn't have it sitting outside my apt building anymore. Didn't have the first clue on how to go about it. I googled where to scrap a vehicle and a number for peddle came up i called them they asked me questions about the vehicles condition and was able to get me Carrier and also a quote on how much I would be receiving at pick up. Not going to lie I was a lil nervous only because I had no clue if it was legit!!! They assigned me a carrier who called me the very next next morning and scheduled a pickup. The driver was on time very professional he wrote me a check for what I was quoted I'm super impressed with how it all went down!! Lol peddle is legit... Thanks now as long as this check clears were good! Don't think I'll have any problems with that though and now I know who to call when I need to scrap a vehicle super impressed. THANKS for being so prompt at getting the vehicle off my hands... #kiaoptimapikup😁

This place is amazing for a scrap/auto recycler!! Everyone is very friendly, and helpful. The employees go out of their to make you feel welcome..Don't forget they have everything you need including the friendly folks at the tire shop!! Deep Discounted Tires mounted and balanced for a fraction of what the big tire boys want for them!! I can't say enough about the people, and the establishment..

Went to the tire shop twice in one day. I needed a tire replaced on one car and I had tires for my truck I needed rims for it. I couldn't believe the price I paid and the time it took. Very fast works, knowledgeable and kind. It was a great experience for my first time there. They have my business for life here.

I am extremely happy with my experience here. I contacted NW Auto Recyclers / Braven Metals to remove two junk vehicles from my property. They got me on the schedule quickly, communicated throughout the process, then paid me well for both vehicles. The staff were friendly and attentive. I could not ask for more! Will definitely be using this company for future business.. I would recommend 👌

I enjoy this wrecking yard. Great selection of BMWs usually. Sometimes they are not advertised immediately, so go often! The prices are very reasonable. Where pick n pull is a good yard chain, NW / Gunner is a little more like a privately owned classic wrecking yard. I'm not saying your experience will match mine, but they don't overcharge for small plastic things, trims and such. Floor mats are reasonable. Seats are reasonable. Lights are reasonable. They aren't hiding anything. I really like Kathy who typically checks me out. She's kind, friendly and generous. I keep coming back, spending hundreds at a time grabbing parts for my old cars and for friends old cars. Been coming for years and really have no complaints! Grateful for your business, I'm sure it's not easy running a yard and complying with every little thing.

Update: it's been a year since getting serviced by this shop and I still have had no tire issues! My car is still handling wonderfully! ********* I am so amazed by their service, I will definitely be back! My dad and I were greeted by a gentleman as soon as we pulled up. We were asked if we had been helped by two other people while we were waiting for the first man who greeted us to help us. He said he would be with us shortly from taking care of another customer (understandable) which surprisingly didn't take long. We told him we were in need of two front tires. The employee, my dad and I walked around their used lot together and couldn't find any in a size that would fit my car. We went inside and decided to consider ordering new ones. The employee was sooo helpful in working with us and looking up rates for us. The cheapest they quoted was to my surprise $80 per tire where Les Shwab had just quoted me earlier in the day $150 per tire for their most affordable option. Ordering tires, I expected it would take a few days, but no. The employee had texted me the very next day to say the tires were in and I could come by to get them put on. When I got there, he said it would take about 40 minutes to get them put on, but it only took 20. Driving away from their shop, my car felt 1000x better than it did before I got there. What a relief! I am really, truly impressed by their professionalism, helpfulness, knowledge, work ethic and sense of urgency for their customers. If I could give 10 stars, I would. I highly recommend and for as long as Gunnar Auto Parts is in business, my car will never be taken to a crummy shop like Les Schwab again. Thanks Gunnar Auto Parts!

I've been to other pick and pull recyclers and this one is by far the best I've been to. The place is organized, clean, and every car is raised so it can be picked from. The owners charge reasonable prices and are very helpful. You can even search their website to know what cars they have before you go. It even gives you the VIN! Just be cautious not to confuse this place with another one as it is easy to hit the wrong one.

This is by far the best junk yard I have ever been too. The yard is big and kept very clean and organized. The staff is friendly and helpful. It only cost $1 dollar to get in! The best thing is that there inventory of cars changes quite often so the cars that are there still have practically all there parts still on them. Unlike other places were the cars sit in the yard till there is nothing left but the frame.

Biggest down side with this place is one of the yard guys and one of the front desk guys have buddy's they call who give them kickbacks ($$) for the good parts so no one else can buy them. They literally will hold onto them and will not let you purchase them if they think their buddy will want the parts. So if you need a rare or high demand part I really doubt you will find it here. Same thing with their complete vehicles too. I don't think employees are supposed to be profiting on the side like they are here and one would think management should have stepped in and stopped this a while ago because its been happening for some time? After going there and experiencing this I now know they'll be my last stop if I need any decent/rare parts because of this. Good thing the yard next door to them is ran like an actual business.

06/10 I called asking about Volkswagen's with the 2.5 engine. They told me what they had and it matched what i saw online. Was told they close at 5:15 I get there and was told they are renovating and they dont allow people in the yard. This seemed very odd, they have a open sign on and nothing online saying that+ i wasnt told that on the phone. I'm here now in my car watching other customers walk in. I think the lady thought I was a kid and didnt want me going in??? Either way i have a membership and have never had an issue with this place :) I feel like i was lied to by the older lady at the counter or mis comunication by the person on the phone(i did have a bad connection where i was at) I understand mistakes happen but this just seemed odd.

Washington state law compliant with the recycling of catalytic converters and friendly staff. The man who took our recycle was extremely helpful and respectful. Truly enjoyed our experience and got provided with a better compensation than what we expected.

Incredible customer service! They really treat you like family here. I came in with my father in-law for tires and rims. (two of mine were stolen) The tires I had were in pretty bad shape (had to put old ones back on). Unfortunately, they did not have matching rims and tires that would fit my car. I was able to ordered a set at an incredibly fair price. The gentleman helping me gave me a loaner set until my order came in!? I was incredibly grateful. My husband was in a serious hydroplane accident and was in Harborview with very grave injuries. It was imperative I made the long commute to the hospital after work everyday. I didn't share this information with the auto recycler until after I purchased my tires. Northwest Auto Recycler is an upstanding, quality and trustworthy company. I would recommend them to my closest family and friends. ❤

If you're selling a car to a scrapyard or if you Google where to sell old cars and it gives you options make Braven Auto & Metals your choice. They made the process more than easy and took care of every part of the process like professionals. This was my 4th old vehicle I've sold in the last 2 years and I only wish I had used these folks before. Ryan was on time and very professional. They even paid in cash which doesn't happen with the other guys even though they say they do. If I have to sell another car this way I will without a doubt call Ryan at Braven Auto.

Good selection of cars. You pick, cars set up nicely for ready access. Great prices reflect the fact that you are doing the work. If you know what you want and how to remove it this is your place. Nice looking used tire center that I saw on the way out with my engine.

Love this place. Cheapest used tires north of Seattle. Great prices and because they come out of the wrecking yard not a whole lotta problems. Been buying tires there for a few years never had to bring one back.

This place took my son's car from a home and claimed they had a paper saying to remove the vehicle and destroy it by crushing it . A 1999 M3 BMW that had 10k in work under the hood and the body was flawless but still claimed they destroyed it. I know they destroyed the title but they can get a new title after state patrol inspects it. I asked for proof they destroyed it and was told I can give you something that says it was picked up and destroyed title and went through the process that's not destroying the car at all " someone is being dishonest " . Car was covered and being taken care of by he owner and they took it and now we are left with suing some people .
