Whether you're fixing up an old car or just improving the one you drive every day, you may be wary of purchasing used auto parts instead of new ones. However, professionals at Stewart’s Used Auto Parts, a salvage yard based in Barkhamsted, CT, can expel those doubts.

Here, they share just a few reasons it's better to opt for used auto parts instead of new ones:

• Cost: Whether you need the part to work for a couple of months or a few years, used auto parts are the more affordable option. Often, you can find a used part for half the price of a new one. Just make sure to purchase it from a well-respected salvage yard to avoid malfunctions.
• Eco-Friendliness: By purchasing used auto parts, you are also giving back to the environment. Recycling parts means fewer new pieces need to be created, thus reducing the pollution caused by the manufacturing process.
• Scarcity: There are many cases where the production of parts for your particular vehicle has stopped, and you can’t find new parts. Many salvage yards stock parts that are no longer being manufactured, so you can be sure to find what you need.
