Best Junkyards in South Carolina

Incredibly expensive I moved to Spartanburg recently and was a first-time visitor to any LKQ. I needed plastic trim parts for my Vibe, and availability in the yard was good, but I was charged an incredibly high price for them at checkout. I expected them to cost a couple of bucks each; or maybe five bucks each, but no! The total came to $39.91. Forty bucks for two pieces of plastic? I was even charged a core and a Warranty price for both. Who needs a 90 day Warranty for a piece of plastic? Do you add a "core charge" to everything? LKQ you have a good inventory but your prices are absurdly high. As a first-time customer, I feel like I was taken advantage of. Terrible first impression.

BEWARE OF THEIR SCAM BEFORE SPENDING YOUR VALUABLE TIME AND $$$$. They won’t pick up the phone but instead all the recorded messages send you to their website to see what parts they have on hand. On their website you search by the make model and part name. It comes up that they have the part (in my case a rear bumper and step bars). So I rush down on my first day off and walk in. The lady pulls up the vehicle in their system, gives me a quote for the part I want. Satisfied with the cost I paid my entry fee ( mandatory to walk out on the yard). I go and load up all my tools and make my way out to the vehicle that I was interested in and it was stripped already of all the parts I was interested in. So the scam is, they lead you to believe they have the part with their “fancy” website with lookups for parts, then charge you an mandatory entry fee to find out they don’t have what they claimed to have. Why can’t businesses just be honest with people these days?

Ignore the bad reviews, this place doesn’t take advantage of anybody. It’s not their responsibility to make sure you’re getting the right size. Workers were very nice and very helpful and had the rare hard to find parts that I needed. Marina is also super nice.

My experience was absolutely 100%! I spent a lot of money on a new power stroke engine and it was shipped to northern maine with no issues. Motor is now installed and runs like a top. I highly recommend these guys for any parts or motor needs.

Wonderful family owned and run business! They take your needs and thoughts to heart and try to help you.

I was looking up scrap prices and seen reviews so I looked at them, I would have to say anyone that has something bad to say seem to be first timers at scraping an seems to me they want new prices for old stuff well we live in the real world people and here’s were you will get the best prices and good people to deal with so shop around bet you’ll be right back to T.J’s. Keep up the great work team T.J.’s !!!!!! Thanks T.J.’s from a old country girl.

My experience there was great people were friendly I found several parts that I needed I love lawn mower and parts such as that they have a wide variety thanks for the good work keep it up have a good day
