Amarillo Recycling Co

Very rude very short different directions from multiple people on where to go to off load. Clean brass was counted as dirty brass as was the aluminum. Had to offload a truck of aluminum by ourselves with no help from any of the staff. Very disappointing

I used to use this place all the time from 2011-2014 and they were great. Had a friend and I get a contract for 100 tons of scrap from an irrigation company. and almost talked him into using ARC. Took first load down in April of 2023 of mostly pipe and cutting edges and they tared me at 13 300 went home and used the scales at the co-op to tare at 11 700 that 1600 pounds was just enough to be 40 pounds under 2 tons instead of almost 3 I guess we won’t be taking our 100 tons of scrap their now. We’ll take it to Pueblo instead.

Have dealt with the metal place for years but today6-6-20 they were closed so I accidentally found this place. When they gave me $380 I thought wow the price has really went down. After I left I noticed they marked almost 100 lbs of my number 2 copper to copper brass. Difference of 70 cents per pound. Called and complained but wouldn’t have done any good other than have a cop witness me saying I won’t be back. Very blessed to do salvage as a hobby instead of being dependent on it(I have been). When I make another trip to Amarillo and my usual place under the bridge on grand is closed I will bring it back home or throw it in the ditch before I go back to this place again. Ps black dude on forklift was super friendly old white dude wasn’t.
