Young's Auto Center & Salvage
About Young's Auto Center & Salvage
The auto salvage and parts site Young's Auto Center & Salvage runs in Abbeville, Louisiana, taking inbound material from sellers and contractors. The business provides a paid drop-off point for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. The site's accepted-material list is not posted in the directory entry for this yard at the time of the current snapshot. Per the directory, operating hours are posted in the directory entry and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Auto sellers should expect the site to ask about drained fluids before intake — oil, coolant, fuel — and about whether batteries and catalytic converters need to come out separately. A phone call to the yard confirms what prep is needed and whether the operator handles that work in-house or expects the seller to arrive with the vehicle prepped.
