Capital Scrap Metal - West Palm

William Martin (5/5 stars, 3 months ago): I had to send my wife while I was at work in Davie every scrap yard is close except for them. She had both kids and parked up front they wanted her to move because the lines were long. When she told them she couldn’t because the kids they moved her to the front of the line and got her done extremely fast. They also paid .28 cents more per pound on number one copper. Thank you for making this a great experience for her she has only been to one other scrap yard ever. I’m very thankful for you guys

Timothy Phillips (1/5 stars, 3 years ago): Went to this place for the convenience off the highway thinking it would be great because of the reviews in stars. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Had 3238 pounds of steel and only got $145. Myself and a ton of people I know scrap metal all the time. I will definitely spread the word to NEVER go to this place and tell them to also spread the word. Going to try to right this wrong tomorrow but I’m not holding my breath for them to step up and make this right.

Kenneth Burton (1/5 stars, 5 years ago): I put hundreds of good reviews in on places but now I'm winding up doing two in a row bad. Don't go to Capital Scrap Metal. Advertised copper prices for the type of wire I brought in are well over a dollar and they paid me $0.65 on the pound. No one there could speak English with enough skill to even discuss the pricing with and once I tossed my metal up there it was gone. So I was left to take the price they gave me. I wonder now what kind of pricing ripoff they gave me on the other loads I brought here in the past. The owner wrote me back and said this was a lightweight extension cord and they never pay very much for that. This is 2 AWG wire. 150 amp service wire. Look at the pictures. To reiterate I'm not an electrician but I worked at home depot for 4 years in the the electrical department. It had tinned connectors on the end of the copper wire which the guy bent back to see that it was bare copper. I sent pics but obviously the owner never looked at the pictures I sent or looked at the wire. I was upset that I could not find anyone to discuss this with on site; the guy who was receiving the wire was busy and the cashier said her manager was not there.  I gave the owner a chance to make it right but he hasn't responded back yet so I'm amending this review to reflect his actions or lack thereof and his comments. I'm attaching some pictures from another scrap yard that shows the actual prices paid on heavier gauges of wire like this was.
