Pick-n-Pull

Came in to get a windshield wiper motor the previous day for my car since I had broken the original one. Had purchased the wiper motor the previous day with zero issues. I brought in a broken wiper arm so I could measure it to make sure I was buying the correct one should I find it. Upon looking in my cardboard box that held my tools and the clearly broken wiper arm the gentleman took a green marker and marked my broken wiper with some weird wiring, I assume as to make sure I wasn’t stealing anything on my way out. Let’s be clear here, there wiper was toast and was chestnut broken to which I had the smaller broken piece for verification purposes. It was way beyond repair and served no purpose in the future except garbage and he knew this. Off I went to hopefully find what I needed. Once I got back to the office not having found what I needed I realized there might be another car there that may contain cosmetic items I was looking for so I went to the front of the line to ask. This time I was lucky enough to be helped may a female who seemed like i was just bothering her and someone shot her fog and stole her liquor. As I asked her what row the other car is on, she noticed the broken, useless wiper arm in my box of tools and proceeded to tell me I couldn’t take it out into the yard. I let her know that the gentleman (who was quick to take the admission fee from me) had already marked it with green paint and I was just using it as a measuring guide. She said that it didn’t matter. Once I looked to the gentleman that had helped me earlier his response was «I’m not going to bend the rules just for you». He had already marked my shitty wiper, taken my admission fee (of course) and sent me on my way!!! This is the same guy who was cool with it 20 minutes ago. Not like I was bringing in a fucking engine. Once I told the lady that my piece of shit, useless wiper had already been marked by him she didn’t care. She said it didn’t matter and I would get charged for it if I came back with parts from the yard. I was totally not interested in getting caught between who was the boss and who wasn’t between the two as it was obvious. Eventually he told me I could take it out into the yard but by that time I had lost my patience so I told him I would go somewhere else. Once I left I called Halsey Automotive and was able to purchase 2 brand new wiper arms for $ 44. Moral of the story here, customer service is everything. I was more than willing to go somewhere and pay more to not have to deal with that Bullshit. It was just fucking petty. Wish this site has negative stars.

Stood at the counter for ten minutes while six customers were checked in by two employees. one of the employees walked past me on the other side of the counter five times and went to a computer screen while the other was checking in a customer. She ignored me.
I paid $ 33 dollars for a used part that I can get new for $ 18 if I could have waited for an extra day. Needed a functioning taillight before I left town on a trip. I paid the ransom for the part.

For a «junk» yard they sure do want top dollar. Sometimes they want more than list price at a dealership because they don’t know what part they are looking up. Instead of asking you what part it is they make up a price. Should go to paying by weight.

Haha, this place is a joke. I live 2 blocks from them and won’t ever be doing business with them. Call them and see for yourself or just save yourself the trouble and call a real business.

This is one if the smallest pick n pulls I have seen… not a great selection. The yard is a bit messy as well. But hey, its a junk yard, what do you want?

PRICES ARE A RIP-​OFF. Buy it new or go to some place reasonable that pulls it for you AND gives you a better deal, like «A Better Deal», Joe’s «Affordable Auto Wrecking», or «205 Auto Salvage». Don’t waste your time pulling parts, only to pay for an entrance fee, core charges, environmental fees, AND high prices.
