Best Junkyards in Tacoma Washington

Best service from Bob!!! it’s called pick n pull for a reason Legally they can’t help you in the yard and they explain this very clearly… I came thinking it would be easier than it was to get a window out of a car the same make and model. They had a couple to choose from, which I didn’t expect… the best part of my experience was not being told to “go ask one of the other customers in the lot for help”, which I was told by an employee would be easy … but it was this employee named Bob who was working the front desk when I came back in for the second time. He gave me step by step instructions and did everything he could to help me with feeling confident in doing it on my own! He is an incredible asset to anyone coming in here with questions and was a major blessing sent to me… for how frustrated I was originally. Having your car window broken out sucks but meeting people like Bob made the whole weekend not as bad. His experience is worth his weight in gold plus some. I hope his pay reflects his worth! If you need parts I would recommend you check out this space! There are a lot of cars and again BOB ! I am leaving feeling confident in installing this window now too!

Really nice people. I got the wrong tire out of their pile of tires and they were really nice about letting me bring it back and get a refund because I chose the wrong one. No hassle. Just great customer service! A great first experience.

This place had what I needed and had it removed within a day. Helped me load it in my vehicle very quick. I am glad I went there.

If I could leave less than one star I would. Ordered a part over a week ago, kept getting excuses for why it isn't here yet, finally after a over a week the driver shows up with a part for a completely different brand of car. Nothing but lame excuses and unprofessional attitude, swearing at me for trying to find out where the part is so my customer can have their car back, hanging up on my multiple times. First the delivery driver "had a flat tire" then suddenly the next driver was in a car accident, which, obviously hope if it's true that everybody is okay but yelling this at me when I'm just trying to do my job? Nah. Will not be doing business here again. Recommend to anybody that reads this that you find a different yard even if the price is higher, it's just not worth the headache of dealing with these guys.

Went through Summit Auto Wrecking to get my old car off my hands, Mackenzie at dispatch was so kind and helpful and the set up through her was seamless! Once the driver, Geo, got to me he was more than skilled for the job! It took him less than 10 minutes to connect the car, and help me transfer all the necessary paperwork! Kind, dutiful and diligent are the words I would use to describe him! Grateful I went through this company versus the others! Summit Auto is skilled, on time and a breeze to work with!!

Great people. I called at end of day the pulled the part I needed and I rushed down there to get it they stayed open a little bit later just to help. I will definitely be going back.

First time using this facility, it came with high recommendations by those I know in the Kitsap Destruction Derby for best place to bring scrap. If anyone knows where to get rid of used parts its them. I was unsure of the procedure here, but as I entered I was greeted by someone about what I was hauling, He explained about the scale as there is no attendant near it, just him in the front shack. I was also informed where I needed to unload for the type of scrap I had. After getting my slip from him I proceeded to the front office to get reimbursed for my metal. They request only one person inside at a time, and you need your Drivers License and Vehicle license plate number. Fairly quick and friendly, I had my check and was on my way. Looked like the employees were having a good time, which shows they taken care of and enjoy their time there. I will be back when I get more to haul. Thank you.

The staff were so helpful; they are truly above and beyond awesome. I called ahead and they checked the yard for the part I needed, which as luck would have it was the exact trim and paint color of the vehicle that needed the part. I arrived with tools, thinking I'd be pulling the part myself, only to find they had pulled the part beforehand and it was ready and waiting for me... then they loaded it into my car for me. I literally didn't have to lift a finger!!! They also helped me find another part for a different vehicle while I was there. I drove over 100 miles to come to this yard, because I did prefer the color matching part. It was a reasonable price, in very nice condition and I was back on the road in very little time. Seriously could not recommend Safari highly enough.

I guess it just completely depends on what you are looking for but I found a lot of their stock to be older vehicles that didn't look to be in very good condition (yes I know these are junked vehicles), they also don't track any inventory so it's all about you looking around their many acres to see if you can find what you're looking for, not an easy task yet probably fun for others.

Doug has been fantastic and so helpful with a fee of my junk cars. Highly recommend.
