You pay three dollars at the entrance park at your own risk. Bring your own tools pull your own part, bags get searched at entrance and exit. You are able to go in and out if you please. Wheelbarrels are available if needed. Part expensive so try to come on a day that is a half off day or something.

Bring a wagon, tools and gloves. Be prepared to walk a lot. Wear work boots and loose clothing. It always seems to be the hottest day of the year whenever I go. Do your homework online before you go so you can map out where to look for parts. Generally good selection but often cars have been picked over like vultures. Don't be surprised if you have to go to multiple cars before you find the parts you need. Also consider driving to different locations. Recommend. read more

Worst business ethics I've ever seen. This place does price gouging the staff is astoundingly lazy and it's an environmental disaster. They don't dispose of the fluids in the cars they let you be surprised when you pull a radiator hose and 5 liters of coolant pours onto the ground. The entire property is saturated with antifreeze oil and gas. Spend your day pulling pistons and rods only to discover that they want $139 for each piston and rod! 250,000 miles on the throw away pistons for a jeep 4.0 and they literally want $828 and that's without warranty and before tax! A day wasted and these thieves want you to pay more than the cost of an entire engine! This place needs to go out of business and the owner should be thrown in prison. I did my civic duty and reported them to the EPA. I hope they shut you down. read more

On May 5, 2025 my car of 13 years finally died. Both the engine & transmission were shot. Two months prior, I had already been warned this was going to happen. As a result, I had already looked around to junk my car. My mother-in-law recommended Pick Your Part. Online: The website is not very clear on the process of what happens AFTER you get a quote online. For example, it doesn't say if they'll contact you to pick up the vehicle or if you need to call them for next steps. Phone call: I had to call them to figure out the next steps for picking up my car since their website was weird. The person on the call was somewhat helpful in the sense that they were able to confirm a pick up time for my car. However, they weren't really explaining what they were doing since they started asking me questions about my car again, even though I had already done the quote online. Day of pick up: Eventually, from the phone call, I was finally able to schedule a pick up for June 10, 2025. The day of, they called me to re-confirm my vehicle pickup & said they were on their way. It took about an hour for the tow truck driver to arrive to the location. Immediately, the driver confirmed the vehicle, & checked if it had its catalytic converter (which it did). He then gave me paperwork to fill out, I handed over my title. Within 15 mins. I was given a check by the driver, with paperwork of the exchange. Driver was professional & quick. Final thoughts: Overall, I was satisfied with their service & I would probably use them again. Especially, as the day of pick up went smoother than I anticipated considering the reviews I saw online. However, their online & phone service could be improved. read more

1.21.2025 I've been a Customer since long before LKQ bought this chain, the basic concept is very good but LKQ keeps making it worse and worse . Now they don't separate the vehicles by typ, brand, nothing plus they may have more of the same vehicle you need that's _NOT_ on the website, I no longer want to walk the entire HUGE yard looking for a vehicle that may or may not have what I need or even BEE THERE . The hand washing stations are at this time passably maintained, *very* important when your hands are filthy . You'll need to bring your own tools and make your own judgements as to the parts, they do have a warranty but there's no guarantee there will be a good part if the one you chose is bad, NO MONEY BACK . -IF- you know what you're doing this place is a god send . They no longer do the New Year's Day sale =8-( . -Nate read more

Wow. I'm looking for a replacement mirror for my Honda Fit and so I've been calling around. Westside Salvage recommended this place as a spot to find Honda parts. If the yard is anything like the phone service, it's a pass from me. The guy who answered the phone wouldn't tell me what colors they had available and then when I asked him how much it was (which was almost as much as a brand new one from Honda), he told me and hung up. I'll be looking elsewhere, thanks. read more

I haven't been to this place since early last year. It has gotten worse. Based on my extensive experience with going to this location and most of the other ones in Southern California, before and after LKQ bought all of them, this review will be focused on providing tips, based on experience and observation. Gone are the make sections (GM/Ford/Chrysler Dodge/Import) and type section (Trucks/Vans). Now, everything is mixed here. So you must use the app to find your make/model/year, easily. Otherwise, finding a particular vehicle here is like finding a needle in a haystack. Everything is mixed. No more 50% or 40% off Holiday discount days that went on prior to 2020. The pandemic been over for years. Yet the Holiday discount days have never been brought back. This place is usually windy and dusty as hell. Wear a face mask, goggles or eye protection, ear protection, etc. Otherwise you will risk consumption of that stuff. Also, if you don't want to carry all the dust to your vehicle, wear some form of temporary clothing or protective clothing that can be discarded or is separate from your regular clothing. Because you will be filthy once you leave this place. Entry fee is $5 a pop. Back in the day it was $2. I used to go to a view junk yards on the same day. Then it went to $3. That wasn't that bad of an increase. Now it's a whopping $5. So you better make sure that they have multiple vehicles of your year/make/model/body style. So you wont come here for nothing. Because most of their vehicles are almost gutted by personnel before available publicly. Ive actually watched employees put out vehicles and prevent the public from touching them until a group of personnel or their buddies take stuff off the top. Usually outside mirrors, tires, wheels, center caps. Cashiers don't accept modern electronic pay options (ApplePay, etc). Just cash, credit, or debit card. Also, most don't ask for ID when using your credit card. So be sure not to drop it on ground and lose it. Because if someone finds it, they may be able to use it fraudulently. As most cashiers wont ask for IDs Cashiers will nickel and dime you for everything. If you pull any type of lamp (headlight, taillight, 3rd brake light, etc), remove everything (nuts, bolts, push pins, bulbs, pigtails, wiring, etc.). Otherwise they will charge you for everything. I swear. The cashiers will consistently smack on the bs warranty prices. Warranty may be worth it if you are buying something that cant be tested at the yard, like an engine or tranny. As if they don't work, you can return for a full refund. Otherwise warranty is not worth it for anything else that can be tested like electrical items. Just bring in some portable 12 volt device to test all electrical stuff. No need for the overpriced warranty. If you test the items and they work, you wont ever use the warranty. They know you probably wont need warranty. Thats why they try to smack it on all sales. Its all about big revenue here. Go on the website to view parts prices before you come here. Plan your trip. Otherwise, you will be sticker shocked once the greedy cashier start overcharging you for junk. Make sure you know the name of every part you buy and the name is listed on the website. For example, if you have an interior rear view mirror, make sure you are charged for an interior rear view mirror. Not an exterior or outside rear view mirror. Which is significantly higher. If you have a CD changer magazine, they will probably charge you for a radio. As "CD changer magazine" is not even listed in their parts prices. Cashiers love to play those games of up-charging you for junk you don't have. Make sure you look at the outside LCD screen as you are being charged. Don't let them overcharge you for stuff you don't have. The prices are so high here (and at all LKQ locations), I wonder why anyone would go here so often. Back in the day, their prices were lower than stealership new prices and eBay used prices. Nowadays, their prices are higher than eBay used prices and about the same amount as stealership new prices. You would be better off buying stuff off eBay and having it delivered to your home than coming here. Why come here to get dirty and dusty, wasting gas, spending minutes to hours walking and picking just to pay stealership brand new prices for used junk? Last but not least, be prepared to open your tool box, backpack, purse, wallet, etc when entering and exiting. Entry and exit personnel will want to check the aforementioned for hidden junk. Sure I understand that there are thieves. But what is the whole point of searching when entering? That just holds up entrance line. The only good about this place are the free use of wheelbarrows and plentiful parking. Just make sure the wheelbarrows can roll down the aisles. As most aisles are full of debris and some wheelbarrows are broken and cant roll freely. read more

Very bad experience. The manager has no way of helping, and the employees are even worse; they are rude and don't even know the parts I have. They wanted to charge me for three parts, and I only had one. They wanted me to pay more than it's worth new--that's not possible, they're used parts. And their response was, "If you want, I didn't tell you to come; that was your choice." So, from my point of view, a very bad experience. read more

This place is no longer worthwhile. They let people in with reciprocating saws so they can eat through a beautiful dash to get an airbag. Lowlifes. Meanwhile, they sell broken parts for the same as usable ones. Their prices are no longer fair and now they don't bother disengaging truck lock mechanisms. Half the trunks are therefore closed making it just that much more difficult to locate and remove parts. They screw themselves out of moneys for taillights, rear lids, panels, spare tires, jacks, toolkits, headliners, trunk liners, rear seats etc because they are committed to bare minimum. I'm shocked that ebay with shipping is my best bet. read more

Pick Your Part - Sun Valley - Roof - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Sun Valley, California

Most USED parts are more expensive than new parts online. They try and say they are more expensive since there is no wait. You're putting in the labor to remove the part, pay more money for it, and no guarantee it works. If it doesn't work, no problem if you paid additional insurance warranty on the part. However, the time it takes to drive to the junk yard, remove it from the junk yard vehicle, install it on your car, realize it doesn't work and remove it again from your vehicle, your Amazon package would have already come. Price the parts competitively we don't like to stand out in that hot sun for two hours just to walk away because it's too expensive. Perhaps do an online search at the window for more specific items that are no on the priced parts on your website. read more

Well, luckily the pizza is marginally better than the chicken wings and "tenders" I had last week... but only just. My "custom built" pizza was just an old slice of pepperoni with some peppers sprinkled on... 'and by old, I mean it was old, chewy, dry and as close to eating old boot leather as I care to admit. Also, similar to the chicken review last week, the borderline hazmat salt toxicity is reassuringly consistent and the cheese used was perhaps sourced from the days of the invention of cheese. The only possible reason for it tasting so old! Also, also... when they ask you for a tip when you order, they don't mention that against all expectation, convention and decency, they've already added 12% to your bill... for service that can only be described as grim, dismissive and condescending. I was hoping for so much more or I wouldn't have come back. Unfortunately, that's me done with this insult to pizza. read more

What an adventure. The prices were steeper than I expected. I went twice in a 3 days. Jocelyn remembered me and the model of my car. She was great and helpful. Both times!! It turned out that I couldn't find my credit card and thought I might have left it at home. However, when I went to check out, the woman with black glasses recognized me from 2 days earlier. She had my credit card!!! So nice!! I don't know her name but I was so grateful. really nice employees . read more

Deceptive pricing, warranty, return, and core policies/procedures. I bought a part that was a piece of metal. It can't break, so I figured why buy a warranty, right? Well here you need a warranty to be able to return it if it doesn't fit. So I took it back to return it and not only would they NOT return it, but they had charged me a "core" charge of $10 because (in their words) "the scrap metal has value." Okay, so surely they would give me that $10 core charge back for the part, right? Nope. Instead, the lady got angry and verbally aggressive with me. These people suck. They don't care about you, they don't care about the price, they will NEVER negotiate. The high price is just the price and screw you. Oh, and it's $5 and an airport search procedure of your tool box to even enter, then again to leave. AND! If you go through the line and somehow they forgot to charge you for something that the security finds (because the tellers aren't knowledgeable), then you get to go wait in line again. HORRIBLE. read more

Don't go here unless you like getting over charged on used parts. Came here for some small stuff like 1 sun visor and an intake air duct. Got charges 45$ for the sun visor and 35$ for the air duct.

I've been going to this location since the '70s, really. Haven't been in a few years and needed some exhaust parts for a GMC. I paid my $3 entrance fee and headed to the Chevy/GMC Truck area but on the way I kept seeing fords, chevys, dodge and toyotas all mixed up! Pickups were mixed with these random cars and there was no order at all to this place, just random cars. I asked an employee how the H was I supposed to find my part and I was told to get a smart phone so that I could look up which row and which position a possible donor vehicle might be residing and hike out to that spot to see if it had the part and if not, repeat !!!! I'll never go to this joke of a yard again. These clowns will fold soon and somebody sporting a brain will take over hopefully. Until then, Sayonara. read more

Still a good place to get parts for DIY mechanics. It's nice that you can look up their inventory (and **prices**) online. Their system of numbered rows and columns allows you to locate the car(s) you want quickly without having to walk the whole yard! Even so, you may or may not find your parts, depending on how long the car's been on the lot, it may have already been stripped clean, even by their own workers! Eg. Last time I I saw PUP workers going around taking off tires (the best ones) by the dozens, which means less selection for customers. **Prices are posted online, but the cashiers may misidentify the part in your receipt if they don't even know what it is. (For example, I had a neutral safety switch; she was charging me for a gauge!) You have to pay close attention at checkout otherwise you'll end up paying more than you should. Also, warranty is automatically added to every single part you buy, unless you specifically tell them that you do not want it. Prices have gone up (like EVERYTHING else in CA!) read more

The overall experience is horrible prices for used parts almost the same as ordering new, which will do from now on. Was charged a warranty even though I said I didn't want it. Was told I can't take the parts without the warranty what a scam. read more

I don't recommend this place. They never have the parts or vehicles they say they have. They need to keep their inventory of vehicles and available parts up to date. I traveled two hours round trip and they did not have the part, nor do the cars shown on the list appear in the lot. And also they charge for warranty without the customer's authorization, I heard many customers complaining about these unauthorized charges. I don't think I will return to that place. read more

Bad management. They always attempt to over charge you parts. They don't know their own catelog

LKQ has some really unethical business practices. Recently they are adding 90-day warranty, without your permission. Previously they would ask if you wanted warranty. Now they simply add it to your bill UNLESS you tell them not to, before they ring you up. Also, they have core charges on stuff that don't make sense. For example, a dash has a core charge! Certainly, they are not going to rebuild the dash for them to charge you core fees. There are also other similar instances of dubious core charges. LKQ should be investigated for this malpractice. read more

Spent few hours pulling a cylinder head off of 99 Mazda Miata. They recently started charging for all components on assemblies so I made sure to just keep what I needed which is the cams, and timing gears. They tell me the cylinder head is 350.00, they then proceed to tell me that the timing gear is 350.00 per gear, as well as 350.00 per camshaft. That has to be wrong. Just ridiculous. Totaling to about 2k, there's also a core charge. I request to speak to a manager, she says that since I removed the cylinder head that I've rendered the rest of the engine useless. Her words, which is honestly total bullshit. Then what's the point of pulling your own parts. These assholes should just pull the engines themselves then. No signs or any information saying they screw you on prices like this. Complete waste of time and labor. read more

The cashiers are so rude. I when there for the first time. With my husband. On Sunday, and she charge him extra for guaranteed on the part. And when dint want to. She still charge. So we talk to her, to get our money back. And she answered can't you read all sales are final. And we told her, that's not ok. What there doing. And she said bye, I hope your part doesn't fit. So we left. She call security on us. And the security follow us all the way to the car. Filming us and my car. Taking pictures. And filming. That's one experience we don't want to make again. So no i don't recommend this place. There so rude. Plush the same cashier was really rude to other guest too. read more

Long lines at check-out. A cashier will hang up the "closed" sign and leave their window even if people were already in line waiting. Grossly over-charged. Came home and looked up the part price on their website. I got charged $75.00 for something they have listed for 53.00. I had questioned the pricing at the time and got brushed off. Tried calling their listed phone number, but it's just an automated system that reroutes to their website. Can't actually talk to a real person. I'd like to say this was an isolated case, but it's not. seems to be an everyday procedure for them. read more

The price is whatever the cashier feels. every time I got this yard I spend a lot time searching and pulling a part only to get to the register to have the cashier tell me a higher price than what is posted. This a scam. Straight scheme they are hoping you decide not to buy the part. they just got free labor, you extracted a good part and cleaned it and ensured it's in good condition now they can sale it through there their online store at a premium price. This is not the pick a part of the past they have sold out read more

Worst customer service ever. The old man who thinks he is the manager is rude he has no customer service skills. The security guard makes you feel uncomfortable. He basically harasses females.
