Pick-n-Pull

Small compared to the one in Hayward but then again this one gots those old cars you dont see in hayward, Fremont etc… Nice staff. Place was flooded when i went over therr during Christmas time but the import section was dry but man you would need a paddle and a canoe to get anything out of that dodge chrysler section Nice & Cheap

I had an old beater sitting in front of my house for a few months now. I decided to skip the hassle of craigslist and call up pick n pull per my buddies suggestion. I gave them a call, they asked me a small list of questions about the vehicle and then quoted me a price. I told them what I was wanting for it, we went back and forth and ended up in the middle as expected.
They arranged pick up on a saturday. The driver called early and was very polite. He wanted to know if I was available sooner. Not a problem, he came right on time, in and out in about 10mins. Literally. Check in hand, a couple of signatures and the vehicle on the tow truck. Done and done.

The people at this pick n pull are terrible! They tell you they have 4 vehicles that match on the phone and then once they have your admission fee they only have one and it doesn’t have what you need. Do they give you your money back? Heck no! I don’t get the whole admission thing, do they think it’s an amusement park? Go to Wilson’s on Hatch Rd. They are great and they don’t charge you for nothing!

They never have what I need. The cars are always completely destroyed as if people go there just to f*ck sh*t up and not actually buy anything. $ 2 to get in, so I take a shift knob just to make up for it. They have a list of part prices on the outside and inside. Everything is way overpriced. They expect almost brand new dealership prices for old crap that’s most likely broken one way or another. I truly hope this place goes out of business. Be smart, go to a real dismantler instead.

Always have just what I need at a great price

I rebuilt an entire 1962 Ford Falcon Ranchero out of this place. Those cars are hard to find, but we got 80% of the parts here.
Pick n Pull’s are altogether mediocre. Sacramento has brand specific junkyards if this place doesn’t suit your needs.
The taco truck here is the best pick n pull taco truck I’ve ever been to. End of Story.

Worst…Pick-n-Pull…EVER!!!
And every single person I’ve talked to who frequents the local auto junkyards feels exactly the same way. Why is it so bad? Let’s examine the facts:
* Many parts have near OEM prices — they have been quickly ratcheting up prices over the years and some things have DOUBLED in short period of time. If you want a routine everyday part, then buy it at another yard. If they have something rare/​unique, then it’s worth it. I don’t want to pay $ 10 for a two feet piece of body trim anymore myself. Some of this stuff is literally ¹⁄₃^rd of the prices at other P-N-P’s.
* They will nickel and dime you for every single piece that could be charged for. For example, a rear seat with headrests. Now, the average laymen would ascertain that headrests are a part of the seat. But they want to charge PER headrest and thus making the item almost twice the cost of it’s listed price. If anything has relays/​switches, count on paying for each item. And no, most of their other stores don’t follow this practice typically.
* The store manager FROM HELL — think Lumberg from Office Space bad.
* Poor turnover in automobiles. Cars may be in the yard months and they are TRASHED and have nothing worthy left on them. Other yards, i.e. Sac, Rancho, get a quicker turnaround and have fresh cars.
* And some yokels are getting enjoyment out of smashing windows and headlights here as well.
I’ve pretty much given up on this place. I think their greed and irrationality are attempts to make up for slower business but it’s just driving people away. I usually just go to Stockton’s P-​N-​P these days. They have half-​off days usually once a month, these are the best days to give this yard a shot. Just come early before the crowd.
