Alex R (2/5 stars, a year ago): FOR TRUCKERS: Friendly people but loading area is littered with metal. Of course this is a scrap yard but at least clean up the dock area. Found a nail and screw in my tires while getting loaded. Getting loaded 2hrs and counting. Best to avoid this place

Marco Pellot (1/5 stars, 3 months ago): Not the best place to get prices on cat. Converters do you self the favor and drive to a wallingford scrapyard I went in with an oem cat. Converter and was told 8 dollers for a brand new never installed 1 700 doller oem cat. Converter that I never installed due to the headgasket being blown.. and I mean brand new!!! Still has shine and everything so long story short I drive off go to a wallingford scrapyard and boom 120 bucks I'm leaving with.. this place is a joke and now I know why in my young days my family would straight up complain about this place cause of the way they pay it's ridiculous honestly they must've thought that I didn't know how much platinum is actually worth! Stay educated people!!
