About junkyards in Port Arthur
Sunday is the strong suit in Port Arthur. Four of its eight yards keep Sunday hours: Felix Auto and Truck Salvage, Figueroas Towing and Recovery, Johnny's Towing & Recovery and Brians Wrecker Service. Only four post hours at all, and those four open Saturdays too. None of the eight lets you pull parts yourself, so the toolbox can stay in the truck. To sell a car, the names on record are Felix, Johnny's, Caldwell Automotive Core Supply, Boone's Towing and Recovery and Triangle Auto Parts. Five yards hold a state license.
Caldwell Automotive Core Supply works a narrower trade than the rest: catalytic converters, automotive cores and non-ferrous metals. Bring it a converter or a core, not a question about a door panel. On the EPA side, two of the eight yards show a stormwater permit that EPA's records count as current. Every yard here keeps an address in ZIP 77640 or 77642.
Beaumont, 17 miles away, is the closest other city with yards on record. Past that the drive gets longer fast: Wallisville at 44 miles, Liberty at 50 and Baytown at 65. When a part or a sale doesn't pan out in Port Arthur, Beaumont is the short trip and the rest take most of a morning.
