So, if they have your part, it could be a great deal. Their cars are pretty picked over already. Small stuff like screws, fuses, relays, clips, connectors are always good to pick up. They usually don't charge for those. Any front-end pieces are probably gone or damaged. Some interior pieces can be salvageable, but most are garbage. Note that their website says the close at 5:30pm but they actually close at 4:30pm for entry which is misleading and has caught me out a couple of times. The people are nice, but they don't know their inventory which changes quickly. They are limited to searches that cannot be broadened so do your research before going and verify before you go that the vehicle(s) you're looking for is still there. Note also that their inventory is virtually nonexistent for anything in the last 10 years. The parking lot is disheveled. Please organize your parking blocks and smooth over your lot. This is not to mention all the garbage in the rows which makes navigating them very difficult. Some of the aisles are so close that you have to go around them. I have found some gems but mostly going there has been a waste of time. read more

U-Pull-&-Pay Albuquerque - parking lot with scattered barriers - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I really enjoyed visiting this junkyard. The staff were courteous and helpful with directing me to the potential location of the part I was looking for in the huge lot. There is a 2.00 entry fee and its basically a self serve lot to collect parts off junk cars. There is an enormous selection of junk cars and they seem to be generally well organized in rows by type. The price of the items I bought seemed ok but it did not seem like an over the top deal. The prices were maybe just very slightly lower than buying a brand new part from what I could see. Overall it was a positive experience, however. read more

looking for a sunvisor for 2000 Nissan frontier . unfortunately all the frontiers we found there were stripped but they were very helpful and referred us to another lot read more

Not a fan of this place. I recently bought a used battery for a car I am working on and the battery was DOA. It doesn't seem like they check before selling. I was not aware of the return policy until after I made the purchase and checked the receipt where it basically states, no cash refunds, just credit for future purchases. It's an asinine policy and I am stuck with credit that I may never use again. I felt ripped off. I purchased the battery in good faith. The staff gave me an unacceptable reason why I couldn't get a true refund. This place gives new meaning the word Junk Yard. Junk being the keyword. Buyer Beware. read more

Big Tip First: BRING WATER OR OTHER HYDRATION IF IT'S HOT!! Outside lot in summer is hot, dry, & dusty. It'll parch you in a heartbeat. Especially if you are engaged in any level of physical exertion while yanking the part(s) you came for. Little Tip: If you didn't bring something to drink, they sell refrigerated cans of soda & bottled water for $1 each next to the window where you pay for parts. * * * * * I am giving this U-Pull lot four stars for: - Well organized layout of lot alphabetically by make of vehicles. Be aware that this is a big honkin' lot so there are multiple lanes of rows. Orient yourself so you don't (as I did) wind up walking all the way to the back fence expecting the alphabetical line-up to advance in your favor, when in fact you are in the wrong lane. Spend a minute getting your bearings & save yourself needless walking. - Well organized website listing inventory of vehicles by year, make, approximate model, and where each one is located by row # on the lot. Be aware that the trim package listings on the website can be pretty hit & miss in terms of accuracy. Website also lists how many days the vehicle has been on the lot, which is handy since high wear 'n tear parts (and easily removed parts) disappear in a hurry. - Relatively short rows of vehicles. Once you have the row number from the website and hike to that row, it's pretty easy to locate the vehicle. - Waiving of $2 entry fee for military & veterans. There is also a mil-vets discount (15% IIRC) on parts prices. These folks don't just pay lip service to supporting our troops & vets. - Staff has been courteous & helpful in my experiences here. - Having large parking lot, albeit unpaved, right at entry gate to office building. It's located a couple hundred feet east off of Broadway Blvd SE (past a fenced off Truck Parts lot). * * * * * Things To Be Aware Of: - You provide all tools & labor to get the part(s) off the vehicles in the lot. A prybar can be handy for vehicles whose doors/hoods don't open due to body damage or missing/broken latching mechanisms. Take tools both bigger & smaller than you think you'll need. For frames or other such heavy parts some reviewers mention forklift service. You might ask at entry window if you think you'll be needing it. They have wheelbarrows & sturdy gardening type wagons. I think you can rent them, not that I've ever used them. - It's dusty & dirty. As the website recommends, wear clothes you don't care about. Work gloves or nitrile/vinyl gloves can be appropriate. - Finding an exact part can be *very* hit or miss, often frustrating & disappointing. Vehicles get ravaged & picked over pretty quickly. Good news is that they have a 30 day return policy if the (approximate or alternate) part you get doesn't work out for you. - Prices are fixed, regardless of make/model/year so far as I can discern, and are listed on their website. Some are closer to new prices (online or auto part stores) so do your research to see if the time or $$ savings pulling the part yourself are enough to justify your visiting this lot. read more

I went today, It was like walking through a homeless camp, the cars I wanted to get parts from were not accessible, they were in a fenced off area. like the pictures on the web site I guess, I have noticed before all the motors that mite work seam to be gone immediately when they are put in the rows. what a waste of a morning. read more

Most of their vehicles have been completely stripped. What they do have left, if you're lucky to find the part you're looking for, will cost you close to the same price as buying brand new. Waste of time. read more

Being the only self service yard in town, I suppose they don't really care too much about customer satisfaction. That being said, they really need to work on cutting down on exit times. Getting in is bad enough, but getting out, standing in the hot sun waiting and waiting is too much. It's a trip from Tijeras and I'm seriously thinking it's not worth the effort. read more

A truly inexpensive (and fun) way to keep your car on the road. Friendly staff, especially considering how many rude people they have to deal with. To the people who complain about the $2 entry fee and whine that they didn't get enough help from the staff, or that the part they wanted was too expensive or wasn't there and that it was the yard's fault, stay away. This place isn't for you. You are clearly not understanding the concept. We've been here dozens of times over the years and can find no fault with Upull and Pay other than watching some lowlife customer steal, and listening to others complain without a valid reason. Thank you for offering this affordable salvage yard option to the ABQ area. read more

U-Pull-&-Pay Albuquerque - $20 for a pristine trunk floor? Such a deal! - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

1st off this place has a huge inventory which is great, and they're very organized. The entry is really cool and helpful to get guidance to where you're going and for what parts you need. Very friendly and professional people as well. The only reasons I deducted stars from my review are, #1. Their inventory on the website did not accurately reflect what was on the lot 100%, the vehicle I was looking for said there were 3 on the lot but when I arrive the lot didn't have any which was terrible because it's a 45 minute drive from my house, plus a $2 per person entry fee. I didn't want to waste the trip so I gave them 2 of my other vehicle models and the parts I'd like to find for those, so she kindly guided me to those and when I looked thru all 3 of those vehicles on their lot...all of the parts I needed were gone, so that sucked. #2.Their pricing is insanely high, I don't know if it's because of covid or that's their regular pricing but I got a small door handle and a pioneer head unit with no harness and was charged $40, which for that price i could get a brand new handle from an auto parts store and a complete radio with harness off Craigslist. #3. When leaving the people were very nice but I had trouble hearing the lady when Im guessing what she was asking me is what I had for purchase and I shook my head no (insinuating that I didn't understand cuz I didn't hear the question) and she pointed at my tool bag so I opened it showing the radio and then pulled the door handle from my pocket and then I heard her say well I see u have a radio in there, do u want to pay for it? And at that point I understood what she was asking me before and that I had probably looked suspicious (at least that's how I felt, maybe I looked to much into that situation, but after that I paid and left feeling kinda ripped off when I looked at my receipt and learned I paid $10 for an exterior door handle and $30 for a beat up cd player with no harness. Most of this was my fault being that it was my first time there and I didn't know how it worked but now that I know and I see how pricey they are compared to other lots that u don't have to pay entry fees on I probably won't return. Although they do have a store credit 30 day return policy which I may take advantage of being that im not sure if this radio even works, so bonus points to them for that, overall 4 stars but unfortunate that you have to pay to enter even if you don't find what ur looking for. read more

i would have not even posted a star I went to here to locate some parts I been going there for years and it's been quite lovely except for today the lady treated me like I was a criminal and called me out in front of all the other guests I sure losing one cuz won't hurt but just wanted to let off some steam and let some of you know that it sucks there go to 5 Js or any other used salvage yard your better off but your choice good luck and hope you don't tell yourself that you should have listened lol a long time customer I will never go back and gonna tell all my back yard mechanics not to fair you place again and oh they'll listen they praise me later read more

Came here on a Saturday to get some visor clips and some shocks for my car. The place was very busy and it seemed like it took forever to pay to get in and to pay for my stuff and leave. As you would expect it looks like a junk yard but it is very organized. It's not to hard to find the model of your car or truck. They have the vehicles sorted by there brand, and model. I found almost everything I needed. I was looking for some visor clips for my truck but I failed to find the same truck model. Overall the shocks and clips I got for my cat were very cheap and in good shape. If you don't want to pay full price for a part and like used parts this is the place to come. read more

Needed a radiator fan for one of my vehicles and really didn't feel like paying 250 bucks for a new part at Autozone so thought it would be a good idea to come check out U-Pull since everyone in NM seems to drive a Mustang.. Well when arriving you pay a 2 dollar fee to enter and it gives you access all day after that you have access to pull what ever you want and sure there are a ton of vehicles but the majority of them are skeletons and done have much left which is a total bummer out of the 12 mustangs I looked at 98% of them were useless. Long story short coming here is a gamble since your not sure your going to find what your looking for but if you do parts are cheap and also come with a warranty for an extra fee. read more

Well the name says it all..You bring your own tools and try and find that part you need and yank it out. You can go online at there site and even see if they have a car or truck for parts before you make the drive down there,its a hit and miss sometimes but will save you a lot of money if they do have it. Im rebuilding a 1974 scout two 4x4 and its going to take me some time but its yards like this that will help me keep my cost down. Ive been here many times for projects that me and friends seem to come up with..Be prepared to get dirty and lug your tool box a long way,They have a system set up by grids that have every make in each area.Theres more yards up and down broadway so your kinda in a junk yard part of town..lol but I try and start here because if even I don't find my part I can hit up there food truck that has great Mexican food an has great ice cold drinks from mexico..Well good luck for you guys or gals that need parts on the cheap..Some times it can down right piss you of if you have to fold to e-bay or craigslist..Happy Hunting. read more
