Wagners Auto Salvage
4115 S. Alston Avenue, Durham, North Carolina, United States

WAGNER’S AUTO SALVAGE, INC. was established in June 1973. It was purchased from John and Ike Ferrall. Their family had owned the property and started the business in the 1940’s. When we purchased the business, it did not have any road frontage on South Alston Avenue. So, through the years, as we could, we purchased surrounding property. We were able to add road frontage and a driveway down to the main building. The business came with the foundation of a wonderful customer base that we still have and cherish to this day.

In 1973 we were a two person operation. Over the years, we have grown to 31 wonderful employees…1/3 of them women. Some employees have been with us for over 25 years and their loyalty is truly appreciated. Our service has grown as well. Our business includes a full service salvage yard, crushing facility, used car lot as well as towing and recovery services. We sell, pull, clean and load every part a customer needs. We have over 3000 vehicles on our yard and we process each one and remove all of the fluids from them before they are inventoried and parked on the yard. We buy local wrecked and disabled vehicles, and purchase them from Salvage Auctions as well. We take pride in the services that we provide to our loyal customers, usually over 100 per day. 

Our success comes from our wonderful and loyal customers and our dedicated employees who work very hard every day to please them. We are very grateful to our community for supporting us over the years and three generations of our family are working together to serve you as quickly and efficiently as possible.
