Cash for junk cars in Alamo

5 Alamo yards buy junk cars: each one either says so on its own site or holds a license to buy salvage vehicles. Texas yards need the title, or a TxDMV certificate of authority (Form VTR-71-2, $2). Since September 2025, a licensed parts recycler can also buy a car 13 or more years old that has gone unregistered for seven years without one.

About junkyards in Alamo

Trucks set Alamo apart. Of the eight yards on record, two work on heavy trucks: Alamo Truck Sales & Used Parts, which also handles semis, and Valley Heavy Equipment & Used Parts. None of the eight posts a self-serve lot, so leave the toolbox home and let the counter do the pulling. Five hold a license. Sellers have five names to try: American Used Auto Parts, Alamo Truck Sales & Used Parts, Amigaso Junkyard & Auto Salvage, Alamo RGV Parts and D. Cantu Used Trucks & Parts. Forget Sunday. Five yards post hours, and only two of those open Saturdays.

Amigaso Junkyard & Auto Salvage leans toward engines and transmissions, suspensions, collision parts and doors, so it makes a sensible first stop when the job is body work or a drivetrain swap. Every yard on record sits in the 78516 ZIP code. On the environmental side, EPA counts the stormwater permit as current at seven of the eight yards.

Alamo is small, and its neighbors sit close. Donna and San Juan each lie 4 miles off, Hidalgo 6 and Pharr 7. Each of those towns has its own page with its own yards, hours and fees. Check them when two Saturday openings and no Sunday ones do not fit your week, or when you want more lots to choose from.
