The yard size is quite decent with a variety of cars, trucks, and SUV's. I'd say there are probably 100-200 vehicles in there. The only problem is these so called "mechanics" that work in the place tell you they have the part you're looking, but when you get there they don't and you don't find that out until after you've paid an entrance fee into the yard. And it sucks even more if you had to drive several hours from another state just to get there to get ripped off =/ But it's a junk yard so I guess even the inventory system is a piece of junk Moral of the yelp: don't go to junk yards that are two, three states over just to waste your time and money. but for instate residents it's definitely worth a shot for the small fee

Outstanding Service Thanks to Larry at Pep Boys in Hamden I…read morecan't say enough good things about Larry at the Pep Boys in Hamden. On one of the coldest, most miserable mornings, I found myself dealing with a completely flat tire--never a great way to start the day, especially in freezing weather. From the very first moment, Larry went above and beyond in a way that truly stood out. Before I had even arrived at the shop, Larry took the time to speak with me over the phone, immediately understanding the situation and showing genuine concern. That alone made a stressful morning feel a little more manageable. When I finally arrived by tow truck, I was blown away to discover that Larry already had all of my paperwork prepared and ready to go. No confusion, no delays, no extra stress--just efficiency, professionalism, and kindness. Not only was my tire fixed quickly, but Larry also made sure my warranty was honored without any hassle. He handled everything smoothly and confidently, clearly knowing his stuff and advocating for the customer every step of the way. It's rare to find someone who combines technical knowledge with such strong customer service, but Larry does exactly that. What really made the experience exceptional was Larry's attitude. He was friendly, calm, and reassuring throughout the entire process, turning what could have been a frustrating, time-consuming ordeal into a surprisingly pleasant experience. In an industry where great service can sometimes feel hard to come by, Larry truly sets the standard. If you ever find yourself in need of help at the Pep Boys in Hamden, I sincerely hope you get to work with Larry. He is an absolute asset to the store and a perfect example of how customer service should be done. Thank you, Larry, for turning a freezing, stressful morning into a five-star experience--I'm incredibly grateful!

My wife and I moved to North Haven from Wethersfield four years ago. I went into my local "previous" auto parts store. It didn't have what I need. I then went into this O'Reilly Auto Parts. It completely won me over. I never wetn back. Phenomenal people - beautifully laid out - totally professional. My most recent experience - last week - was I walked into the store - as I so often do - in need of some advice / expertise. There was a friendly young man, Zach. I asked him a somewhat technical question about a piece of equipment I wanted to buy. There were several types at a range of prices. Zach led me - with perfect clarity to the right piece at the right price. Then explained to me exactly how to use it. I walked out - as I always do from this great store - with a COMPLETE solution. Zach is a young superstar on the rise. Great attitude. Knowledgeable. Provides above and beyond service. his extra effort didn't result in any immediate dollars going into the store's daily revenue. But it solidified in my heart and mind why O'Reilly's is my ONLY go to store in their specialty. I recommend to O'Reilly's Auto Trader Corporate. Sneak in a video camera and train it on Zach on any day he works there. You could use that as an absolute role model for training others. All the Trainer would have to do is to edit the highlights of his day, play the tape - and turn to the class and say - "And THAT is how its done!!!". Thanks Zach!
