All 741 licensed auto parts recyclers and salvage yards in Texas, from the state licensing extract, each with a business street address, phone, county, license number and expiry date. Used-parts recycling is one of the least documented corners of the automotive aftermarket: yards rarely advertise, many have no website, and no national directory is complete. The state license register solves that. Parts marketplaces and locator networks recruiting suppliers, insurers and collision repairers sourcing recycled OEM parts, core buyers, scrap and metals processors, and yard-management software vendors all need the complete list rather than whoever happens to rank on a search engine. Because this is the license register, it also includes the yards with no web presence at all, which are usually the ones nobody else has reached.

## The figures

- Records: 741 locations
- States: 1
- Coverage: partial U.S.: 1 state (TX)
- Fields: 24
- Price: $19 one-time, CSV download, commercial license (https://locationlists.com/license)
- File built on October 18, 2026. Rebuilt weekly on an automatic schedule.
- File last modified: 2026-10-18

The file has all 741 locations in one download. Building the same list by searching one area at a time tends to miss places, and a missed place looks like a gap in coverage that is not really there.

## Questions

### Are these junkyards or parts businesses?

Both, since Texas licenses them under one class. In practice the list runs from full-service late-model recyclers with inventory systems through to small self-service yards, all of them licensed to sell used parts.

### Do they have websites and email?

The state publishes name, address, phone and county but not websites or email, so those columns are not in this file. Phone coverage is complete, which for this industry is the channel that actually works.

### Can I get other states?

Texas publishes a genuinely free bulk extract, which is why it is first. Ask and we will tell you which other states publish comparable salvage or recycler registers.

### How is this data cleaned?

Every rebuild runs the same steps and counts what each one changed. For the current file, rebuilt October 18, 2026 from tdlr.texas.gov: Merged 0 duplicate listings that had the same business name, street address and ZIP code, keeping every filled-in detail from both (October 18, 2026). Unified 4 city names written more than one way within the same ZIP code (for example with and without a space or an abbreviation) to the US Census Bureau spelling (October 18, 2026). Corrected 1 misspelled city names to the US Census Bureau place name for their ZIP code (October 18, 2026). Shortened 232 ZIP codes to the five-digit code every address filter expects, keeping the delivery-route segment in a column of its own (October 18, 2026). Added map coordinates to 741 listings that had none, from the US Census Bureau address geocoder or, where the street address could not be matched, the centre of the ZIP code (October 18, 2026). Set the county and its federal county code on 615 listings, matched to the US Census Bureau county list from the county the source records, the listing's map point, or its ZIP code area (October 18, 2026). Checked every map point against the state in its address and re-placed 0 points that fell outside that state (October 18, 2026). Flagged 1 addresses that are incomplete, a PO box, or missing a house number, in an address quality column (October 18, 2026). Checked that the row count, state count and field completeness published for this file were measured from the file itself (October 18, 2026).

### Isn't this free on tdlr.texas.gov?

The underlying records are public on tdlr.texas.gov. What you pay for is the work between that public release and this file: unified 4 city spellings, corrected 1 misspelled city names, shortened 232 ZIP codes, added coordinates to 741 listings, added the county to 615 listings, flagged 1 incomplete addresses and measured 741 rows, and a fresh rebuild every week. The current file was rebuilt October 18, 2026 from tdlr.texas.gov. Doing it yourself means downloading the full release, repeating each of those steps, and repeating them again every time the source updates.

### How complete is each field?

Measured on every row of the current file, the share of rows that carry each key field: phone 100%, street address 100%, city 100%, state 100%, ZIP code 100%, latitude 100%, longitude 100%. 22 of 24 columns are filled on at least half the rows.
