Looking for used auto parts in Cannington? Well, you're in luck — WA Auto Parts is located just minutes away in Welshpool, making us one of the most accessible car wreckers Perth residents on the eastern side of the city can call on. No long hauls, no waiting weeks for the freight. A quick trip across the suburb boundary to one of Perth's most established wrecking yards.

Cannington is a hive of activity. Lots of households with two or three cars, tradies working the Welshpool-Cannington industrial strip and a community that knows the value of the dollar. When the car breaks down – whether it’s a dead alternator, a cracked bumper or a gearbox on its last legs – most Cannington residents aren’t reaching for a brand-new part at dealer prices. They're after quality used parts that work just as well for a fraction of the cost.

Yes, that’s precisely what we do. WA Auto Parts is a dealer-licensed car wrecking operation with over 15 years serving Perth drivers, and we stock a huge range of parts from constantly arriving wrecks. Whether you’re a tradie who needs something fitted quickly or a DIY owner who just wants a reliable part at a fair price, we’ve got you covered.

Why Cannington Locals Choose WA Auto Parts

The proximity is tough to beat. WA Auto Parts is situated at 103 Sheffield Rd, Welshpool, just the next suburb over from Cannington. That means same-day pickup is truly on the table. Call in the morning, check that we have the part, and pick it up that afternoon.

It’s not only location that keeps Cannington customers coming back. For over 15 years we have been Perth’s trusted auto wreckers and car dismantlers. “We have a huge stock that is turning all the time as new wrecks come in. We're a licensed dealer (MD26589) - not a backyard setup. We sell at trade prices and retail prices, so if you are a fleet manager or a first time DIY mechanic, it all adds up. And our staff actually know their parts, we will confirm compatibility for your exact variant of vehicle before anything leaves the yard.

Parts We Stock for Cannington Customers

We have thousands of parts stripped from vehicles across all categories at our wrecking yard in Welshpool. Here is what Cannington customers regularly purchase from us:

Engines & Gearboxes

Complete engines, engine assemblies and manual or automatic transmissions. We pull them right, test what we can and always confirm your exact vehicle is compatible before anything leaves the yard.

Body Panels, Doors & Bumpers

Bonnet, guards, doors, tailgate, bumper bars, we have a good range of body parts in stock. Especially handy if you've been in a bingle and just need a colour matched replacement without paying through the nose.

Suspension, Steering & Brakes

Suspension and brake parts that are perfectly usable as used parts, such as control arms, struts, shocks, tie rods, callipers, rotors, and more. Many of them are salvaged from wrecks in excellent condition.

Electrical Components, ECUs & Sensors

That’s a big one for cars today. ECUs, ABS modules, window regulators, sensors, relays, fuse boxes—when we get a late-model vehicle in our yard, we pull and log everything. Great for Cannington residents with newer Japanese or European cars who find dealer pricing on electronics brutal.

Interior Trim, Seats & Dash Parts

Seats, door trims, dashboards, console panels, carpet sets, sun visors. If your interior got the worse of it, or you’re doing a refresh, used OEM parts are the smart buy.

Cooling Systems & Exhausts

Radiators, intercoolers, fans, water pumps, header tanks and exhaust parts. Parts of the cooling system on wrecked cars are often in great shape. Worth a call before you buy new.

All Makes & Models Wrecked

WA Auto Parts wreck all makes and models – Japanese, European, Korean and American cars regularly come through our yard. Toyota, Mazda, Holden, Ford, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Volkswagen – if you need parts for any of these, chances are we have something on the shelf or a wreck being stripped now.

We also have late-model vehicles in stock, something that is becoming more relevant to Cannington drivers with newer cars that are out of warranty, but not old enough to write off on parts costs. If your car is under 10 years old and you need something the dealer wants a fortune for, give us a call – we almost certainly have a match.

Parts Fitting Service at Our Welshpool Workshop

We are not your parts counter. We also provide a full fitting service at our Welshpool workshop, perfect for Cannington customers lacking the space, time or tools to undertake the work themselves.

We do engine and gearbox swaps, suspension parts, electrical calibrations and interior trim work. If you are a tradie who can't afford to be without a work vehicle for a week waiting for a panel beater or mechanic, or you've sourced a part and just want it fitted properly, bring the car in and we'll fix it.

How to Order

The process is straightforward. Call us on (08) 9358 1392 or send through an enquiry online with the make, model and year of your vehicle and the part you need. Before any journey you take we will check our stock and confirm that the part fits your particular vehicle variant. Customers in Cannington can pick up from our Welshpool yard within minutes or we can arrange delivery at your convenience. Trade account holders receive priority handling and volume pricing, so it’s worth a call if you order regularly.

Why Used Parts Make Sense

Brand new parts from a dealer or trade supplier can be eye-wateringly expensive, especially on European vehicles or anything with a limited production run. WA Auto Parts is a licensed wrecker and we offer OEM parts that are the same fitment and compatibility – they came off the exact same platform – for a fraction of the cost.

Usually they save 60–80% compared with new. The gap matters to Cannington residents with older cars where the resale value does not justify a big parts spend. And used OEM parts take the guess work out of fit or quality variation, unlike aftermarket parts. You know what you are getting.

Over 15 Years as Perth's Trusted Auto Wreckers and Dismantlers

WA Auto Parts have been serving from Welshpool for more than 15 years. During that time we have established long-term trade relationships across Perth, developed a deep knowledge of parts compatibility for hundreds of vehicle platforms and maintained our dealer licence (MD26589) as a legitimate, accountable operation.

So that means for Cannington customers you’re dealing with vehicle wreckers that buyers all over Perth trust – not some unknown operator. We know the parts, we know the cars, and we stand behind what we sell.
