Roxbury Auto Wreckers

Auto wreckers don’t always make the headlines, yet they keep wheels turning behind the scenes. Roxbury Auto Wreckers on Dewey Avenue sits where end-of-life vehicles pull in and usable parts walk out, filling a quiet niche every day. Crushed bodies and intact transmissions pair up in bins that line the yard, waiting for the next owner with a socket wrench and a scavenger’s eye. Fluids get drained, batteries get salvaged, and whatever can be bolted onto another ride eventually finds a second life down the road. Walk into the shop and you’re stepping past shelves labeled by carmaker and model year, bins of bulbs sorted by color temperature, and wheels stacked by bolt pattern. Outside, lifts hoist donor cars while the hum of compressors mixes with distant traffic. The full address sits just shy of the Wharton line: 364 W Dewey Ave, Wharton, NJ 07885. When you need the line to the yard, dial (973) 361-7070. For directions, grab the map before you idle down County Route 517.
