For being a place in a rural area, they have a good amount of popular vehicles
Absolutely fantastic service. I was treated well, and the prices they said were more than reasonable. 10/10 will be going here for my used car parts.
The only part I will note. In the winter, once the snow melts things get muddy and slippery VERY fast. Also bring a small wagon if you're grabbing more than one thing, chances are you'll have to walk it back to the front.
Took some scrap from household projects old heater and other big pieces. Weighed us on way in dumped reweighed made some good lunch money. Kept it out of landfill is big plus!
Anybody who says this place is expensive is just wrong and confused. So you had one anecdotal experience. Big deal. This place is here every day. Are you?
When Mr. Aguirre happened by he noticed me carelessly cutting the wiring to the door I was salvaging with my pocketknife. It seemed wrong at the time, but I had no idea anyone buys wiring harnesses at the junkyard, and I couldn't see an easy way around it, so I just started cutting. With the patience of a Saint, Mr. Aguirre carefully explained that people do salvage wiring, especially from Toyotas. He bent over backwards not to assume that I was a nihilist maniac, and re-explained the situation to me two more times, deliberately calling attention away from my recklessness and bringing it back to the main point - that the wiring harness is worth saving. I have seldom seen diplomatic skills on the level Mr. Aguirre effortlessly employed.
It's nice to have a you pull yard close to Taos. They have a lot of older cars but you have to find them. Yard is not organized in any way and they don't know what they have. They charge half of retail for thier used parts after you pull them. CASH ONLY
First time here, dropped off a broken up cast iron tub. Made a few bucks off it. Great place for metal salvage drop off and purchase. Wonderful staff.
Been coming here for 20 years or more,Mr Aguirre has fair prices,too bad they don't open on Saturdays anymore.
always an adventure... from sandblasting, cabinets, architectural items, used tires, all sorts o auto parts. the conspicuous consumption wasteland of the DisUnited States on full display... buys scrap metal however the prices, are not in your favor.
