About Jim's Auto Salvage
Jim's Auto Salvage is an auto salvage and parts site set up in Sturgis, South Dakota in Meade County. The business takes inbound scrap material from local sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county. Inbound material categories are not on file for this listing in our directory, and no specific intake set has been recorded. Day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory. A phone line is on file, which together capture what the yard has filed with the directory about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for planning a visit before any drive over to the gate. Sellers running a series of small drop-offs over a few weeks may want to ask the yard about its routine handling for repeat inbound. Some sites coordinate around recurring volume in a way that smooths both pricing and gate timing on a routine basis.
