Recycling centers in Taylor

Late-model used parts for domestic and foreign cars and light-duty trucks are the specialty at Glen's Car and Truck Parts, a family-owned yard on Telegraph Road in Taylor, run for more than 30 years. The 15-acre lot holds over 1,000 salvage vehicles and more than a million parts, tested before sale, and the yard carries the Michigan Certified Green Yard designation. An online parts locating system finds specific parts, a photo of a part is emailed on request, and orders ship to homes and businesses. Glen's also sells used cars. The yard is open weekdays from 9 to 5:30 and Saturday from 9 to 3, and serves Metro Detroit.
