About junkyards in Charlotte
Two dollars or three: that is the gate price at Charlotte's two u-pull yards. Pull-A-Part Charlotte charges $2, and Pick Your Part - Charlotte, part of the LKQ Pick Your Part chain, charges $3. Both put their inventory online, both open Sundays, and both say they buy cars. Sam Auto Salvage is the third buyer among the city's 10 yards, and the only one that says it pays cash. Trust Towing & Recovery keeps Sunday hours too. Six yards post hours, and three of those open Saturdays.
The yards sit in six ZIP codes: 28206, 28208, 28211, 28213, 28216 and 28262. Six of the ten hold stormwater permits that EPA lists as current. None holds a state license that we found. For more choices outside the city, Monroe sits 19 miles away, Waxhaw 22, and Lincolnton and Unionville 27 each.
