About Smithville Auto Salvage
Dowelltown, not Smithville, is where our records place this Nashville Highway salvage yard. It runs 8 to 5 on weekdays and 8 to 3 on Saturday, with Sunday off. Its state dismantler/recycler license is good through June 30, 2027. The single EPA inspection in five years came on November 21, 2024, with one informal enforcement action on file; no quarter in three years shows a violation, and the permit does not read current. Paying by card is fine.
