Excellent! Couldnt find the part I needed anywhere until I called B&R. Had multiple of the part I needed at a great low price. Would send anyone I know their way. Will be going there often. They really saved the day for me!

Drove 80 miles to get a van from them, it was as advertised and better in fact. Staff was great and I would recommend this place as honest and a great company.

I showed up to grab one little part that would have taken me 5 minutes to grab during their open hours and they refused to let me even look. Its been a couple years since I went and I had no problems before but I would never frequent again given the choice. It was 15 minutes before close not 5 minutes and I would have had plenty of time to grab it. 0 out of 10 would not recommend

Great place to find used parts for your rig. Only drawback is the sheer size of the place when trying to find your Donor vehicle...sometimes its where they told you it was and sometimes they have moved it somewhere else but staff is there to help you. Highly recommend !

It is a place of exceptional customer service, product availability and with multiple locations it is a very smooth and beneficial consumer experience. I can say this with high confidence because not only were they friendly but they have multiple locations in which they had parts for my Lexus GS300 when no one else in town, let alone the entire state of Oregon, actually had. So thanks B&R Auto wrecking. Theres a reason why Ive been going to you guys for years because Ive never had to shop anywhere else.

The phone system is broken horrible. Good luck getting someone on the phone to talk to you. No exaggeration, I wasted a good 45 minutes getting tossed to this guys voicemail.... his voice-mail box was full. He read off a number to text him, but after calling back a half dozen times I was finally able to figure it out (because he spoke so fast it was impossible to copy down and missing a number). I finally reached a person after being on hold for another 12 minutes at their main number. The gentleman was extremely rude from the start (a Mario in Seattle). Lots of dramatic sighs in the background and other rude behavior. If I would have overheard that conversation at my place of business, I would have let him go on the spot He cut me off multiple times as I tried to explain the situation and I had to actually demand to be allowed to finish my sentence. I was *told* to follow a specific procedure by the local store that I physically visited a few days ago. This behavior is completely unacceptable for ANY business. Get a phone tree system that works if you rely on that, and dont employ kids with attitude that think they know everything when that is far from the truth. Belittling the customer is never a good business tactic. If there was anywhere else to go for parts I would In a second. On a positive note, The staff at the Corvallis, OR location were some of the nicest people in person. So this doesnt hold true for all locations. I would highly suggest avoiding calling this place. If you need something go in to a physical shop and make arrangements there.

The help and customer service I received from Rodney Ruggles was exceptional. Hard to find service like that anymore when customer service has definitely gone downhill in the last few years. Thanks Rodney...wanted you to know some of us still appreciate what you do for them

We ordered a part and was told we could pick it up in a few days, two weeks later and theyve lost the part and have our money for it. No phone calls returned or anything. May want to find a different place to get your parts. Review will stay the same till I get my money or the part or maybe even a phone call from them. That would be a gracious courtesy.

B&R is a great place. The yard is a bit sparse but that is because they dont keep old cars around for long. They have any part you need. Just give them a call.

They had the parts I needed at reasonable price. The staff was very friendly and professional. I would recommend this yard also because their online inventory is easily searchable compared to other yards.

Stay away! Bought an engine from here and I was still charged (by another company to install) to replace the part that came with the engine that was supposed to be good. This is the 2nd engine in less than 2 years that was faulty. I would not recommend B & R to anyone!

Review №28

I called and wanted to purchase a used engine. I searched online and found one they were advertising for $575. I called and was told it was available but for $615. I mentioned that online it said $575, so they honored that price. I asked if it was ready for pickup and where. Was told Albany and was ready. I drove for nearly 3 hours to get it, when i got there i was told it was still in the vehicle. I asked if they had another one, they did not. So i asked how long it would take to pull it because i drove for 3 hours to get it. I was told it would take about a week! WASTED MY TIME, GAS, AND MONEY.

I have had THE BEST experience with this company! I was in an accident and in desperate need of a door for my car. I was able to see the pictures online and I spoke with Corey who was so patient and helpful. He also gave me his extension to reach him directly if I needed any help. Best customer service I have EVER had!! He explained the process to me and I was able to get my door the same day. I will recommend this company to all my friends and family! Thanks B&R!!!!

Review №33

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HORRIBLE BUSINESS ETHICS!!!Bought a used engine with warranty that was supposed to be tested and good. After spending several thousands to have the shop put it in just to find out it was a bad engine with 10+ permanent codes indicating several components disfunctioning. Now Im stuck with 2 bad engines!! When confronted they basically told me they could do nothing unless I pay another grand to get the engine out and pay transportation costs to bring it back to them. Thats a loss of $4000 just for putting my trust into them! More than twice the engines cost. Ill make sure neither me nor any of my employees(600+) never gets nowhere near this business again!!

Couldnt understand the guy on the phone! He had me on speaker with a ton of background noise and talked really fast! Not sure if I got quoted for the part I actually needed or not! Ended up getting it from someone else.

Ordered a part for a customer back in June. Arrived damaged. Contacted Rodney Ruggles ( who was the person I dealt with), he promised to give me a credit. I called back and even sent emails. Hes been ignoring me since then. Wont return my calls or emails. Even messages left for him with other people that work there but still doesnt contact me back.

We resontley got a jack for a scion . Called around to find out b and r were one of the only ones to have it beside the dealer. Got a good price for it also it looked like new and they even greased it for us.Also in the past I bought a ford escort transmission I have put many miles runs like new not one problem with it.They also have really good customer service unlike some of the wrecking yards I have been to in the past.In conclusion you should go with them because they sell great parts .And they check their parts before they sell them to you. And they have great customer service.

Review №46

As a wholesale parts purchaser, customer service is nice and all, but what really matters is fast delivery times, and accuracy. B&R is at the top of the game when it comes to both! I work with Levi Eiler, and I swear he must live there! He is always available to take my order, and regularly catches Grade B parts before they are shipped. He is always looking out for my best interests - to the point Im beginning to think Im his only customer. Best prices on the market. Friendly drivers. Good staff. Highly recommend B&R for all your recycled part needs.

We order a ton of parts from wholesaler Justin Hopkins who does an amazing job for us consistently & we appreciate our relationship w/ his hard work and ability to overcome our parts challenges.This time i want to recognize another stellar salesperson at B&R Albany.Recently we ordered some parts close to closing time from a saleswoman named Amanda Hoover. I would like to say how much I appreciated her taking the time to answer my questions and get the correct part, the first time and on time to us the next day. She was knowledgeable and courteous, which is hard to find. I dont bother much w/ the competitors wrecking yard sales staff anymore, as it seems that they are more worried about chasing the dollar vs taking care of the customer. Thank you Team B&R! Keep up the good work and we will keep buying :-)

Review №53

They delivered a window to me but broke it and didn’t even call me back to follow up, I had to call them. Then they took longer than they said to refund me because they had no more windows for my car. Easily the worst experience I’ve had with any company.

Review №54

I spoke with Corey at the Albany B&R location and he was very helpful and pleasant to work with. 5 stars for Corey!!!! Upon walking into the central point B&R/Caveman location I became very disappointed with the customer service offered by one of their younger employees (Id use his name but, he never gave it). He wouldnt allow myself and my pregnant wife to take a quick look at the vehicle but instead insisted on sternly asking what do you want man? I wanted to go view the parts on the truck to see if there was anything worth purchasing. If Corey worked at the central point location off of Vilas there would have been a sale today, That dude needs a pay raise... his customer service skills are top notch.... The other gentleman needs to find a new job.

In my experience you have a 50/50 shot of a junkyard part working correctly . I needed a part for my truck and they gladly shipped it up from Eugene to Albany . Unfortunately it didnt work , I just called and there was no issue on returning it and they are sending another one up from Medford . Thanks guys so much and for letting me test this one in your parking lot , just to ensure it will work ! 👍🤘🍻

I am a mobile mechanic, a client needed a transmission for her car. We shopped around and weighed out her options. B&R had the lowest mileage used tranny, but definitely not the cheapest. We were told it would be here Tuesday, on Tuesday we were told it would be here Friday, then on Friday we were told it would here Tuesday again. Now that its Tuesday Fingers crossed. I will not be using this company ever again.

Review №76

Was going to the Albany location to pick up a part that was paid for by a customer. And ready for pick up. Phone many times and and continuously patched over the voicemail, which they never returned. Google show their address which I had a question about. Arrived on location at closing time and said they were patched out of the system. And unable to release the part. If they would’ve answered the phone I would’ve had no problem finding your location with directions with the Corvallis yard was more than happy to give me. This is why we were for all of our customers to Gcr and not be in h if they would’ve answered the phone I would’ve had no problem finding your location with directions with the Corvallis yard was more than happy to give me. This is why we refer to all of our customers to GnR not BnR. Especially the Albany Oregon location.

Ive been here many times over the years. Used to spend my Saturday mornings browsing for parts. I hadnt been in for a couple years because I moved away, but visited recently. The guy at the desk was helpful, although not particularly friendly. I was disappointed that even though I was there well before closing (5:00), he said they couldnt help me because the yard closed 5 minutes earlier, at 4:30. Didnt get my parts there because I was just passing through and couldnt go back the next day.

Review №79

My personal experience with B & R auto wrecking in Albany has been a very positive one. First with Adam for several years, and for the last few years with Justin. I have purchased many transmissions, front and rear differentials, body portions, engines, and all kinds of automotive parts. Any time there was a mix-up or a non-acceptable part, the problem was quickly resolved with competence , and courtesy. I keep in mind that I am buying used parts and internal condition is not always evident until the item has been disassembled or installed. I feel the price has always been fair.

Have been working with Justin H. at B & R for a year now and have spent thousands with them and his customer service is exceptional. Fast quotes, fast delivery, willingness to stand behind parts, and fair prices! I have worked with auto wrecking yards and large corporates like LKQ for years and Justin and B & Rs service beats them all hands down. Thank You Justin and B & R Auto Wrecking!

Review №94

Called on Wednesday morning to order a part we desperately needed. They where by far the cheapest with the part 1 day away. They required payment up front before shipping the part from another location. The next day the wrong part shows up, and they can have the right one on Monday. Friday afternoon I call just to verify they got everything straightened out and and they informed me they do not even have the part I needed Wednesday and was expecting Thursday. Had I not called Friday afternoon Im sure I wouldnt have found this out until Monday! Cost me 3 days down time plus $127 to get the part overnighted (because I needed it days ago) from a supplier that did have the right part. This was the first and last time our company will call B&R!!!

Very rude and when I asked how much for a 20 light bar on a wrecked truck I was told $100. I looked it up and found the exact light, a litebar 20 for $28 on Amazon and it was new. When I showed then that it was the same and how it was a very off brand bar they said ok then $50. I will never go back there and will keep going to pick a part right down the road

Review №97

Engine/transmission buyers beware !!!!!!! They will not refund your money even if they dont have the item you need !!!! I purchased a engine for my 97 Dodge Dakota, $1250. First engine was bad, returned for a second engine, no problems getting the exchange, second engine also was bad, called store and they didnt have another engine available (basically it was sorry about your luck) convinced them to refund $ 500 and found a good engine elsewhere, the manager said he would work with me on the remaining money they had of mine, than no return calls, and always unavailable when calling so i ended up with no yard credit or refund on the remaining amount, so Im out $750 plus they got all 3 engines as cores, so Im out the additional $$ for those, I work hard for my money as everyone else does and if you dont have the product to sell be fair and refund the money as you yourself would expect anywhere else you shop, I hope the owner of B&R reads this review and understands what is happening to the reputation of the company that he and his family have worked so hard to build, sad that after at least 10 years of doing business with this company greed has stepped in to run off another longtime customer...... You want to keep your longtime customers and or new customers ...Do whats right !!!!!
