Sell a junk carJunkyard questions
How do I find a junkyard near me?
Type your ZIP code or city in the search box at the top of this page, or tap "Use my location". You get the closest yards first, with the distance, whether each one is open right now, and the gate fee where the yard posts one.
What is the difference between a junkyard and a salvage yard?
People use the words for the same place. A u-pull junkyard lets you pull parts yourself for a small gate fee. A full-service salvage yard pulls the part for you. Many yards also buy junk cars. Every yard page says which kind it is.
Is Junkyards Finder a junkyard?
No. We are a directory of yards in Texas, Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina and Colorado. We do not sell parts or buy cars.
How do you know a yard is real?
Every yard comes from at least one public record: an EPA facility record, a state license list, a chain's own location page or OpenStreetMap. Records at the same address become one yard, and every badge on a yard page points to the record behind it and the date we checked it.
Can I sell my junk car through you?
Not to us. Each yard page says whether that yard buys cars, and the Peddle offer gives you an instant number online with free towing. We earn a commission if you sell through Peddle, and that never changes how we list a yard.
