Pickapart is bring your own tools too. But they also supply vehicle hoists (chain hoist on wheels). Plus last time they let me drive right up to where I had pulled the box off, and load the new box onto the back of the truck.

The last time I was at the wreckers I had to carry my tools in and out. It was the last time for me.
It`s a fairly big lot to go across lugging heavy tool boxes only to find out that I still don`t have everything needed..

I live in North Van, PAP is in Chilliwack (2hrs drive each way). But worth it for the savings.

Come to think of the last time there were some wheel barrows laying around.
Most wreckers here don`t refund, rarely issue a credit. Once paid for it`s yours to keep.....

I went to PAP in Edmonton one time,the place was packed,it eas crazy.Everyone was pushing whee barrow's,there were guys comming and going left and right.I asked one guy why it was so busy,he said "Oh ya,today is all you can carry or fit in a wheel barrow for $100.00".I couldn't believe it.It was so late in the day already ther wasn't any time to go home and get more tools.So I ended up getting what I came for(front right fender,'81F250 4x4),I think I $40.00,and left.I think they have those day's a few times a year.
