We LOVE coming here. We have come so much that we know most of the staff and they know us. They are all so kind, they make you feel like you are apart of the family. Brittany is so personable, we smile everytime we see her working!

They had a driver named Derek who was absolutely amazing. He did his job and some. He was so easy to get along with and so polite and did business and then helped me move all my things out the vehicle and into another one. He was above and beyond start to finish. I never give out 5 stars but he earned it.

Needed to scrap a couple of my folks old cars and they came through the next day and had them gone in no time. Driver Derek was very nice,polite and was able to swing in a tight space a remove them quickly. I would highly recommend them if you need to scrap those old beaters and get a nice price.

I can't speak for sellers of metal but as a semi truck driver, I delivered a whole load of copper wiring in a 53ft trlr on a first come first serve basis. I was in and out in an hour and 10 min. Super nice scale personnel at both windows and friendly informative receiver workers. I'd come back.
