Woodbeck Auto Parts Ltd.

Woodbeck Auto Parts has been supplying the automotive industry since 1939. Many things have changed over that many years, but our foundation of supplying the finest recycled auto parts has not. 

Through operating of a mechanical repair facility in the town of Stirling, Burton Woodbeck, the founder of Woodbeck Auto Parts, found his lot filling up with vehicles that clients chose not to repair. Burton seized the opportunity that he could supply his own garage and others with the parts from these vehicles being left behind. From there on Burton began purchasing vehicles for the purpose of recycling. 

Burton operated Woodbeck Auto Parts until his eldest son Ron purchased the business in 1964. Ron moved the business from the downtown area to its current location in 1968. Ron operated the business in the same fashion as his father did, doing both repairs and parts. 

In 1978 Ron’s younger brother Bruce and his wife Gail purchased the business. When they purchased Woodbeck Auto Parts, they decided to shift the main focus to solely supply the industry with parts. To accomplish what they wanted to achieve, there was an extensive amount of change. The land needed to be filled, levelled, and graded along with new buildings and offices that needed to be built. As time went along so did the need for more changes. A “voiceline” was installed to use to communicate with fellow recyclers to source parts, and then in 1988 Woodbeck Auto Parts went to a computerized system to create more opportunity to fulfill customer requests. Bruce and Gail put in countless numbers of hours into making Woodbeck Auto Parts what it is today. 

In 1999 Greg, Bruce and Gail’s son joined them at Woodbeck Auto Parts after completing four years of business and economics at Acadia University. Greg has worked in most facets of the business, from pulling parts, inventorying vehicles, sales and management. Through these experiences and education Greg brings a new perspective into the industry. He has installed a new state of the art software solution in 2010 to once again meet customer satisfaction. Greg continues with the mantra that his grandfather maintained so many years ago, to supply only the finest recycled auto parts, guaranteed.
