Wrench A Part and Snyders named RECYCLER OF THE MONTH! The old saying, Everything is bigger in Texas! could well apply to this months Team PRP Recycler of the Month—Snyders Certified Auto and Truck Parts. The family-owned and -operated business was started by Ralph Snyder and his oldest son, Dan, in 1988. At that time, Ralph was leaving the construction business, and Dan was a new college graduate. In 1994, Ralphs middle son, Andy, joined in, while the youngest son, Travis, joined them later, in 2002. Ralphs oldest daughter, Bonnie Garcia serves as Snyders CFO, as well as for their self-service operations (Wrench-a-Part). Snyders employs 55 people at their Holland, TX location, with approximately 100 more employees working at the three Wrench-a-Part locations found in Austin, Belton, and Lubbock, TX. The Holland location processes about 2400 vehicles annually on their 37-acre property, while the three Wrench-a-Part locations—on a total of just over 100 acres—process approximately 24,000 additional vehicles annually. Snyders specializes in high-quality late model salvage, and prides themselves on excellent customer service and accurate inventory. Their Wrench-a-Part locations are particularly modern and clean facilities, boasting a large volume of self-service vehicles to choose from. The Automotive Recyclers Association (ARA) awarded Snyders their Car Star Award in 2010, and in the same year, they were selected as a finalist in the Baylor University Small Business of the Year awarding. Additionally, they were pleased to have been the recipient of a Team PRP Quality Control Award. In 1999, Dan and Andy Snyder accepted an invitation from Barry Rubin and Mike Kunkel to join the original Part Source of Texas trading group. This group pioneered the trailering system that is now the hallmark of Team PRP. Dan Snyder stated that he attributes much of their success to partnering with Team PRP, as well as to being a long-standing member of the Counts Owner Groups (Profit Teams).
