BYOT Auto Parts

4007 I-10 Frontage Rd

BYOT Auto Parts runs a pick-and-pull salvage yard on the I-10 Frontage Road in Port Allen, across the river from Baton Rouge. Customers walk the rows and pull their own parts from a fresh inventory of cars and trucks, and the yard keeps a yard map and an online parts inventory with new arrivals posted as vehicles come in. The yard buys junk and used cars every day, with or without a title, and arranges a tow pickup that hands over a check on the spot. It also lists complete used vehicles for sale. The Baton Rouge yard is one of five BYOT locations alongside Waco, Bryan and College Station, Beaumont, and Jackson, and it opens seven days a week.

EMR Southern Recycling Port Allen

1367 Mahaffey Rd Port Allen LA 70767 USA

4.9/5(71 reviews)

EMR's Port Allen yard, branded Southern Recycling, sits at 1367 Mahaffey Road just outside the Port of Baton Rouge. From I-10, drivers follow the LA 1 South signs toward the port, turn onto Mahaffey Road, and find the yard entrance about half a mile along on the left. Inside the gate, non-ferrous loads turn left and ferrous loads turn right. The yard buys iron, steel, copper, brass, aluminum, stainless steel, lead, junk cars, catalytic converters, auto batteries, appliances, and small electricals. Sellers show a valid state-issued photo ID before payment. Louisiana law bars cash for insulated and bare copper and for aluminum or copper radiators unless the seller holds a business license, so those loads are paid by check after a 5-day hold and mailed to the address on the ID. Staff help unload and loan out PPE. Asbestos, radioactive material, PCBs, CFCs, and live ordnance are refused.
