Map of all breakers in Ireland

https://maps.google.ie/maps/ms?msid=209426657479361049802.0004bad3f0623f5f9f37e&msa=0&ll=52.816043,-4.361572&spn=4.688713,5.74585

I have this map of all salvage yards in Ireland that people might find useful for finding their nearest salvage yard - locations should be correct to a mile or 2, so it might be useful for people looking for the closest place to themselves - if the GPS coordinates are listed within the tag it should be exact.

For Connaught and Munster, a lot of the locations are on page 2 (Scroll to bottom of left hand pane to see link for page 2). There's some sense to the colour coding but can't fully remember what it was.

I've taken the info from various sources and haven't visited all of them so can't stand over them - list will undoubtedly include the worst as well as the best. If there are any missing, let me know and I'll update when I can - it's just a guide so please don't give me any crap if a place is closed down. Would recommend calling ahead before heading out to any of them.

Nice work, not sure if it's more comprehensive than existing maps but hey, you can never have too much info

Hardly - I included all the partfinder information when I made up mine but their map doesn't have a fifth of the dismantlers I've listed - currently there are whole counties that don't have any listed and no motorbike dismantlers at all, so should be of use to some.

We call them breakers btw

This is a great resource,

I recommend that this deserves to be made into a ""Sticky".

biko · 08-01-2014 6:26pm

Good idea, we'll stick it for a while and see.
"Breakers" added to title.

One of the ones listed in Athenry hasn't been there for a long time , now its a car park (Cross St)

The one shown south of Tuam (Martin Nohilly) should be in Tuam

Caldwell's have a yard here outside Kells, not sure if it's the same Caldwell's as Navan.

Another one I use that's not listed is Sragh Car Parts near Ballybay Co. Monaghan.

Nice map, does anybody know if there is such a map specifically for reconditioning/remanufacturing places?

biko · 16-04-2016 5:24pm

No there isn't, but if you create one let me know and I'll add it to this thread.

Thanks biko, I might make a start on one next week when I'm off.

Machinestalker · 26-05-2016 1:37pm

Go to autobiz.ie it's a trade site. type in your make and model and start phoning them. All "ship" to anywhere in Ireland or UK next day. Some are on eBay.

Nekarsulm · 26-05-2016 1:44pm

They are missing Felix Gormley metals at Crossdoney, Cavan.

Machinestalker · 26-05-2016 1:51pm

Felix Gormley metals at Crossdoney, Cavan.... eh....... WHO in their Right Mind would go to CAVAN looking for Car Parts. Have you Seen the Roads in Cavan... ha ha ha ha. No offense ment Mate.!

Nekarsulm · 26-05-2016 2:12pm

Perhaps people who live there.
Try driving the backroads of Co.Meath before you condemn us completely!

It's there under used metal disposals. Not sure where that name came from but i visited under that name so it must have some link.
An impressive place they have with all the tratment equipment.

Don't post like this again. Be nice and helpful and people will be nice and helpful back when you need help.

Great, thanks for that.
Excellent resource.

Discodog · 22-03-2018 3:18pm

I found a huge & I mean huge scrapyard out West near Rossaveel. He has every kind of vehicle. He is happy for me to post his number if it's ok with the Mods.

biko · 22-03-2018 3:32pm

Post his website, his location on google maps, or similar as phone numbers can change.

I doubt whether the road is on the map

He struggles with a basic Nokia so no chance with a website. Anyone is free to pm me. I have been to lots of scrapyards, this is like nothing I have ever seen.

Unfortunately the breakers are not showing up on the map for me. This is the first time I've tried it for ages.

PS I'm looking for a part for a Lexus RX and the only one on Donedeal (Bray) doesn't have the part I need so any info you could share would be appreciated.

biko · 06-01-2021 3:46pm

Breakers show fine for me, Chrome on Windows.

What is the part you need? Do you have a part number?

Front shock. Marginally failed NCT.

Map problem is on Android. Must try Windows.

Thanks.

Polo_Cluvie · 05-02-2021 2:02am

Peter in Autobreak is brilliant

BlakeS94 · 07-02-2021 9:32pm

Findapart is a useful site for sure, you enter the details of the part (s) you need, and it searches all listed breakers, and if its available, you get a result quickly without having to do too much yourself. Even so, sometimes I like to search individually , just to see what else the breaker has in stock.
