Finding a used part in Abu Dhabi usually means a trip to Musaffah, where dozens of small dealers sit within walking distance of each other. Salvage yards in Abu Dhabi have logged just under 1,000 Google reviews between them, and ratings run from 4.0 up to 4.9, a spread of nearly a full point that says more about the range of experiences than any single number could.

Short answer: Musaffah Scrap Market M23 has the most reviews on this page at 530, though its 4.0 rating is the lowest here, reflecting a market where bargaining and inspecting parts yourself is the norm. Blue Eden Scrap Trading LLC posts the highest rating at 4.9. For car battery replacement specifically, Global Car Battery and Happy Car Battery both hold ratings above 4.6.

Musaffah Scrap Market M23

4.0530 Google reviews

Musaffah Scrap Market M23 is a cluster of used auto parts and scrap dealers in the Musaffah Industrial area, functioning as a single destination where multiple shops sit close enough together to compare price and stock without traveling across the city. It has no listed website, and reviewers describe it as a place you walk through rather than a single storefront, with pricing that depends heavily on the individual seller.

What people praise

  • Reviewers repeatedly say the concentration of shops in one place saves real time versus visiting dealers separately
  • Sellers are described as knowing their inventory well
  • A wide range of rare and hard-to-find spares reported as available

Worth knowing

  • Multiple reviewers warn prices can start several times higher than fair value until you bargain
  • No fixed pricing, so checking two or three shops before buying is a common recommendation from reviewers themselves

Our take: By far the most-reviewed name on this page at 530 reviews, more than five times any other dealer here, but its 4.0 rating is also the lowest. That combination fits a bargaining-heavy scrap market rather than a single business with consistent service, so go in expecting to negotiate.

Our take: 186 reviews at 4.7. This is a battery and roadside specialist rather than a salvage yard for parts, so it's the right call when the fix is electrical, not when you need a used component.

Blue Eden Scrap Trading LLC

4.979 Google reviews

Blue Eden Scrap Trading is a Musaffah scrap metal and salvage yard dealing in copper, aluminum, and industrial scrap, positioned as a waste management and recycling company rather than a parts retailer. Its own site describes handling scrap that has monetary value, especially recovered metals, for both businesses and individuals looking to sell rather than buy.

What people praise

  • Reviewers consistently describe fair, competitive prices when selling scrap
  • Free pickup and transportation offered for scrap collection
  • Cash payment on the spot reported by multiple sellers

Worth knowing

  • Reviews here skew toward selling scrap rather than buying used parts, so it may not be the right stop if you're shopping for a specific component

Our take: The highest rating on this page at 4.9, though on a smaller base of 79 reviews. Worth calling if you're the one offloading scrap or a written-off vehicle, less relevant if you're hunting for a part.

Our take: 95 reviews at 4.7. Like Global Car Battery, this is a maintenance and battery shop rather than a salvage yard, best for routine parts and upkeep rather than sourcing used components from a written-off vehicle.

How we score these

Rating is each business’s live Google average. Review volume shows how many customers actually left a rating, weighed against the others in this comparison. Confidence combines rating and volume so a high score on a small sample doesn’t outrank a proven track record. Recency checks how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much do used auto parts cost in Abu Dhabi? (2026)

Prices at Musaffah’s scrap and parts market are rarely fixed, and reviewers themselves describe bargaining down from an initial quote that can run several times the fair value. Check the same part at two or three dealers before buying, and expect quotes for a car battery replacement or a specific used component to vary shop to shop.

Serving Abu Dhabi and Musaffah

Most of these dealers cluster around Musaffah Industrial, with a couple of battery and maintenance shops based in Al Nahyan closer to the city center. A search for salvage yards near me in Abu Dhabi will likely point you straight to the Musaffah scrap market area.

What to ask before you buy a used part

  • Can I inspect the part in person before paying, including checking for damage?
  • Is there any warranty or return option if the part doesn’t fit or work?
  • What’s the cash price versus a card payment, since some Musaffah dealers vary by method?
  • Can you source the part if it’s not currently in stock?
  • For a battery replacement, does the price include installation and disposal of the old one?
  • Is delivery or fitting available, or do I need to bring the part to my own mechanic?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these salvage yards?

We pulled real Google ratings and review counts for salvage yards, scrap dealers, and related used-parts businesses operating in Abu Dhabi, then ranked them by rating, review volume, and how recently customers are still reviewing.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects data verified in July 2026. We periodically refresh ratings and review counts as they change.

Are all of these businesses actual salvage yards?

Not exactly. Musaffah Scrap Market M23 and Blue Eden Scrap Trading deal directly in scrap and salvage, while Global Car Battery and Happy Car Battery are primarily battery and maintenance shops that also carry some parts. We’ve labeled what each one actually does above.

Do I need to bargain at Musaffah’s scrap market?

Reviewers consistently say yes. Several mention checking prices at two or three shops before buying, since quotes can start well above what a part is actually worth.

Where can I sell scrap or a written-off car?

Blue Eden Scrap Trading specifically handles buying scrap metal and offers free pickup, based on its site and reviewer descriptions.

The bottom line

For sheer selection, Musaffah Scrap Market M23 is the default stop, just go in ready to compare prices across a few sellers. If you need a battery or routine maintenance instead of a used part, Global Car Battery is the more straightforward call.
