salvage yards

Vehicle part graveyards

Salvage yards are businesses that collect damaged, wrecked, or discarded vehicles and equipment to sell usable parts or scrap materials.

Also called junkyards or auto wrecking yards, they serve mechanics seeking affordable replacement parts and recyclers extracting metal: We found a transmission at the salvage yard for half the dealer's price.
