Recycling in S 500 W Salt Lake City: A Local Guide
The South 500 West corridor in Salt Lake City, Utah is home to two distinct recycling and reuse operations serving different needs — one focused on household goods and building materials, the other on end-of-life vehicles and auto parts. Both are open to the general public without an appointment for standard drop-offs.
The Habitat for Humanity ReStore – Greater Salt Lake Area at 1276 S 500 W is a nonprofit home improvement store and donation center. Open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. (donation drop-off closes at 4:30 p.m.), it accepts gently used furniture, working appliances under 8–10 years old, cabinets, building materials, and home décor at no charge. Every dollar of profit funds affordable housing construction. Free standard pickup is available for large items across Salt Lake, Davis, and Tooele counties. Items must be in resaleable condition — no mattresses, no used shower doors, and no AC units from November through March. Reach them at (801) 263-0136.
About two miles south, Labrum Auto Wrecking at 3508 S 500 W is a family-owned automotive salvage yard operating since 1961. Open Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Labrum buys junk and wrecked domestic and foreign cars and trucks, and sells new, used, and aftermarket parts — most from 2000-and-newer vehicles. Used parts carry a 30-day warranty; new parts carry 90 days. This is a commercial salvage dealer, not a public drop-off center for household recyclables. Call (801) 266-3541 or check labrumautowrecking.com for parts availability.
