About A W Automotive
A W Automotive runs in Memphis, Tennessee, taking on auto salvage and parts work for individual sellers and contractors. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for metal across the surrounding county. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. Day-to-day hours are recorded. 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. On a vehicle that no longer runs, a phone-ahead clarifies whether the yard offers towing as part of intake or expects the seller to arrange transport. The same call sorts paperwork and confirms a quoted scrap rate before any wheels turn, which keeps the day of the drop-off straightforward and on a known timeline.
