Very easy to get to, they helped me get a part for my car that's 14 years old already and I couldn't even get the piece from my dealership. But I called them and if they didn't have it at their location they ordered the piece for me and it was to their place the next day! All I had to do was give them a deposit and I came back the next day and they had the exact part I needed. They loaded it in my truck and I was off.. they are a great company to go to if you can't find what you're looking for and the price they charged me was great! I'm happy all in all.

I recently bought a used Grand Caravan that was missing some trim pieces inside. I reached out to them and they were able to help me with what I needed! Shiloah was very friendly, and I did not have to wait for the parts, and the price …

If you want somewhere that has honest prices smooth transactions and knows what they're talking about this is the place. All my parts were pulled in a timely order. Showed up, paid, got my parts, and was able to do a hood swap on the spot so I didn't have to lug the old one back home. 10/10

I needed a specific rim for my car! Being a woman I generally run into problems trying to ensure I am getting the right item. Between my lack of knowledge and others lack of patience with me I rarely have a good encounter/experience. I must say dealing with Shiloh was superb. I found what I thought was my rim on the marketplace. I contacted Shiloh, he immediately responded and even sent me pics in the pouring rain😊 as if that was not enough, when I asked if I could send him a pic of my rim back he was more than willing to compare my pic to the rim he had just sent me a pic of (I know that’s my OCD)🤦♀️. I just had to be sure before traveling 70 miles one way that this was in fact what I had been in search of for the last 5 months. Shiloh quickly replied “exact match”. I quickly hit the road bright n I early was in and out (yes they even put it in my car for me) in 5 minutes flat! Round trip 90 minutes. I highly recommend Clyde to all! Keep up the good work guys and keep being patient with us woman we don’t mean to drive you crazy!

If you value your time, do not come to Clyde Auto Recycling. I called right before to coming there to confirm that they still have the part I need. When I came and was ready to pay for it, I was told that I have to wait for 3.5 hours for the part to be ready for sale. When I asked why they did not tell me about it when I called them before coming, they said I did not ask for it. So, their mind it is perfectly fine if a customer waits for 3.5 hours, not a big deal at all. The price was cheaper then in other places, in retrospect, it was the first warning sign. Also, the item was described as in good condition, but was fair at best once I examined it. That did not matter to me, but might matter to you.

Needed a part for my 96 F150 and they were the only yard that had in out of 8 places that I called. 1 yard in Pennsylvania wanted twice the price for the same part! Clydes Auto gave it to me for half the price. Great experience! Great Place! Great customer service and very prompt in getting you the part!
