Carolina Salvage covers more than 35 acres on Porter Road in Rock Hill, about 20 miles from Charlotte, and has operated since 1982. The independent, family-owned property runs three yards: a U-Pull-It lot holding over 1,200 vehicles from antiques to late models, a used parts operation that a banner says has converted from full-service to self-service, and a scrap metal buying yard.
The scrap yard weighs on 70-foot certified truck scales and 4-by-4 platform scales. It buys ferrous and non-ferrous metal, appliances, industrial equipment, batteries, radiators, and catalytic converters, plus wrecked, salvage, and junk vehicles in any condition, with local towing around Rock Hill. Gondola trailers, flatbeds, and containers from 20 to 60 yards serve industrial and commercial jobs.
