Went here today to try and get some backing plates. Needed them for behind my wheel bearings. Found out I didn't have dust shields on after replacing my brakes, rotors and calipers.( fun times) Anyways they seemed to have a wide variety of inventory. A mix of older and newer vehicles available. They even had some motorcycles when first walking in. One thing I didn't care for. Was I noticed a lot of the vehicles had yellow jacket/ hornet problems in them. Opened a door to one vehicle and had like four or five of them fly out at me. The parts I did pull were small I paid around $4 for them which I found to be a ok price. The rows are clearly marked with big red numbers. You tell them what your looking for .They give you a recipient looking print out with the rows the vehicles are in that your looking for.

We have had to come here for parts before and usually jad no issue till about 2 weeks ago when my fiance went to scrap our car because it was beyond repair, that was easy however when he asked for our keychain, keys and charms back they gave him back only 2 of the 4 keys and one of our few charms and it was broken in half. I'm not sure why he wasn't given back the entire lanyard with all the charms and all of the keys but I really didnt appreciate the fact they didn't give all of it back and that the charm that was given back was broken.

Beware!!! My advice is don't look at their website but call and make sure to speak to a live person before going. Apparently they like to take long vacation breaks around holidays and don't bother to update their website with their schedule change or voice message. I called and all I got was their open at 8 am and website showed open as well only to make a 60 mile trip for nothing as their gate was locked.

This is a very well organized establishment. All the vehicles are lined up in neat rows, and all the rows are numbered very clearly. With plenty of room to maneuver around the vehicles in order to access any part you need to remove. Their prices are great, and the employees are friendly and helpful. The owner has done away with the entry fee for now in order to help ease the burden on his customers during these troubling times.

They don't give you recet all the time and tell you you have 30 days for return and when you bring your part back you They don't take it they make you pay for anther part which the inchangeble sheets are faulty on some parts

Excellent customer service. I had an issue with a vehicle title unrelated to anything they had, it was an issue with the DMV system. Even though they weren t making any money off the deal, they helped me resolve it.

Clean establishment, good customer service.Prices on some things are fair, other things a little high. Their web site is good. But they don't keep their new inventory upto date. So hard to know what they got unless you actually go there. Which is very time consuming. Especially if you have to drive 20+ miles to get there. But then you might not find the parts your looking for.I own a small business, so this is a huge inconvenience to me. As time is money.So I will search other places websites & take my business there. Like Wilbert's u pull. I have contacted rt34 u pull in auburn a few times. Twice by phone, & once by email. Regarding their new inventory list not being upto date.Plus I even took the drive a couple times Togo & check what they had. One Time was a success other didn't have what I was looking for. So being a 50/50 chance, each drive out there isn't good enough for me to keep doing. As time is money when you own a small business. If they start keeping the list upto date????? I will gladly be a return customer. Then give a 4 star review instead of 3.

They quoted me three different prices for a driveshaft and then only refunded half the core. Decent selection of cars, nice enough guys, no gate charge... But these guys are crooks with the core and different prices. This has happened a couple times. Get your stuff there but be prepared to complain about prices/core refunds.

Love their commitment to recycling and reusing everything they can from a vehicle!Always had a pleasant experience with the guys there. You go, you pay $1.00 to get in the yard, you pick your own parts and save a good chunk of change.You'll pay for the part itself, then they add a core charge they will give you back if you bring in the part you replaced. For example: a transmission is $100 + $40 core charge, if you bring your old transmission in to be recycled you get the $40 back. If you don't, I guess that's the price you pay for not recycling.It's a large yard with row after row of cars already lifted so you can get underneath and get what you need. You do need to bring your own tools and know how to remove whatever you want. They don't do it for you. They do have some parts already pulled. Along with recycled antifreeze, wiper fluid and batteries.You can always check their website for information on their current inventory or give them a call.

Got a set of 4 great tires here for a Volvo s80... VERY difficult size to find but they had them and at a great price for the set. They have a HUGE selection of cars in their yard for parts and all you need are shoes and tools to go get them. Good prices on everything.

This pick n pull was terrible. We called ahead they said they had several 7 lug rums. We drove 3 hours it was a waste of gas and time. They made us pay and they didn't have any rims. My advice is business should be shut down for false advertising and advice. Everyone don't bother wasting your time and gas goin there. I am sure there employees take the parts home for free. Customer service was terrible. Zero stars for that business

Ive been to my fair share pick and pulls in mutiple states. And to every one i can find around Syracuse. Auburn pick and pull is only second to one i went to in Pennsylvania, but by far, best around Syracuse.

I have been going there for over 20 years and they treat me great. it DOES exist on route 34 at the city limits north of town going toward weedsport. I think it is actually outside the city limit sign.it is a salvage yard, so they get cars that people no longer want. there are so many cars and parts coming and going from the place that they can't be expected to know if they have the part you need, but they may know if the car is on the lot or how many of them, roughly.if you have been to junk/salvage yards, then you already know that the workers are not the most cheerful workers out there, but compared to other yards pick n pull treats you the best.the prices there are competitive with other yards. sometimes more, sometimes less. when you call you will not have to wait long to talk to a real person. I recommend calling with any questions.

Nice spot to pull parts. They (unlike another pick and pull) can at least tell you what vehicles they have on the lot so your not wasting your time looking for something that's not there. People working were very friendly. Would not hesitate to visit then for a fourth time.

I've been pulling parts off of cars for 25 years. Always very low prices and a wide selection of vehicles that are constantly changing. They have become more and more organized over the years. Although they have become more selective about the types of scrap metal they are willing to pay for.

The staff were extremely helpful in guiding me to the areas for the parts I needed. They also assisted with removing a piece I didn't need when I got to the counter. Great customer service and they have just about anything you may need.

I had a great experience with them. Can't complain at all. I've been to a lot of junkyards but this one is solid.

Excellent used auto part yard, recommended! Just got to look and or wait to get the parts you're looking for. You want convenience, shop online. You want cheap, you'll have to treasure hunt. If they inventoried every part in the yard, you'd have to pay a heck of a lot more to cover the cost of staff to do the inventory.

People travel from afar to get parts from here. Low prices, good selection. Good way to practice auto repairs. If you're going to have to change the part anyways, pulling it from another vehicle is a good way to see if you can do the job yourself

This is a notice to the people who read reviews and Scott Benjamin. After it was posted it was 2 to 3 weeks and then terminated. This was just found out when was told no longer able to be on property on the accusations of being a thief. After all this it had been deleted so it can't be seen. What kind of company let's this go on and don't even discuss the accused and just take actions. The management can't even talk face to face on this issue or any other. Furthermore it has been determined to not be a thief from falsely accused. These accusations are possibly going for further actions. Also watch out for your scrap weights on scale. Sometimes it is being put in manually and you lose some weight which loses money. More than one person has gone and got screwed and wont go back cause they asked about it.

Went there to get a rearview mirror. Asked what years work for the Van. Was told the wrong year. Found out after I took it down. Brought it up and was yelled at and told it was correct. Tried to put it on. It was not. Tried bringing it back. One person said you have the tag but Roland said no without a receipt. You could tell he knows he was wrong to give me the wrong one (as in let me leave with it in anger). I tried bringing it back again while going to get more parts. I wasn't as worried about getting the money back but figured it was worth a try. He yelled again then kicked me out and didn't let me back in. Too much ego there. Feel harrassed.

Can't beat the prices. I've driven about 40 minutes for the last 18yrs to go there and usually spend few hours there sometimes just wandering around. And the staff is great, they always treat me great.

They do mark the itoms sold. This way if it don't work you can get back your money or exchange it for another part. They do weigh your vehicle & pay you for scrap metal that you have collected. You must have free on professionally removed before you bring in that itom. We have had no trouble with them so far. Honest people who know how to keep customers comming back for many of years.

Website said open till 6:30. I even called and and only got a recording. Made the 30 mile drive. Got there at 4:15 and they were closing. Would it kill them to update the website or put the new hours on the recording? They ll never get another nickel of my money. Go to East Syracuse or Marcy.

Cheap and always have new inventory4 stars just bc I pulled the part out and I asked the guy how much he told me almost the price of the new one clearly he didn't know what it was so I had to double check in the front ( would be nice if they had a price sheet)
