Too Afraid to Ask

A scrapyard is like a junkyard for cars, where you can find old cars that are no longer working. People go there to look for parts they can use to fix their own cars.

Technical Definition

A scrapyard is a place where old or damaged vehicles are taken to be dismantled for parts. It's a valuable resource for finding spare parts at a lower cost.
