About Northern Pick a Part Adelaide
Northern Pick a Part has been in the car wrecking industry since 2013, providing Aussies with quality but cheap used auto parts. They’re also the destination of unwanted and end-of-life cars that otherwise rust away in people’s yards.
Think of them as your vehicle’s undertaker and Mother Earth’s helper in keeping the environment clean. They collect and dismantle over 100 vehicles a month, recycle usable parts, reuse scrap metal, and make sure these metals don't end up in landfills.
Big job! The good thing about it is that Northern Pick-a-Part is not alone in this enormous responsibility. There are many others like them, and even you can help by supporting their business.
