What the Columbus Junkyard Offers
Edison Automotive Parts & Scrap is a dual-service yard where you can sell and shop at the same McKinley Ave location. Drop off an unwanted vehicle and pick up a replacement part in the same trip.
The yard stocks used components pulled from domestic and import cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. Inventory includes engines and transmissions; tires, wheels, and rims; alternators, starters, and other electrical components; and body panels and exterior trim.
Shoppers have two ways to buy. Visit the
parts department to purchase pre-pulled parts from staff, or walk the U-Pull-It yard yourself and remove what you need from approximately 800 vehicles on stands. Admission is free, and wheelbarrows are provided at no charge. On the first Saturday of every month, U-Pull-It parts are half price, motors excluded. That deal draws DIYers from Hilltop, the West Side, and western Franklin County.
What Can I Bring to a Columbus Junkyard?
Edison Automotive accepts cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs in nearly any condition. Wrecked, flood-damaged, non-running, and totaled vehicles are all welcome, and free pickup is available throughout the Columbus area.
Before you call, have the vehicle's year, make, model, and condition ready. Ohio law typically requires a valid title to complete the sale, so locating it beforehand speeds the process. If your title is missing, contact the Ohio BMV for a replacement. The FAQs page covers title requirements and what to expect.

The
environmental page explains how every vehicle is safely drained and processed before entering the yard.
Why a Local Franklin County Junkyard Makes a Difference
Edison Automotive Parts & Scrap has operated from McKinley Ave for more than 55 years, building relationships with customers in Franklinton, Hilltop, the West Side, and broader Franklin County. That local track record translates into honest offers, faster service, and a team that knows Central Ohio vehicle values instead of relying on automated pricing software from another state.
Vehicles that come in as junk provide engines, transmissions, tires, and body panels that keep neighbors' cars on the road at a fraction of dealer prices. For scrap metal sales beyond vehicles, the scrap metal page outlines what the yard accepts.
Do I Need a Title to Sell My Junk Car in Columbus?
