About this center

CycleMET is a family-owned scrap metal yard on Harrison Road in Columbus with more than 35 years in business. Retail sellers drive onto an oversize outdoor scale, and a completely covered drive-thru handles cans and smaller metal items so unloading happens out of the weather. The buying list covers aluminum, steel, copper, and brass, including old refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves, and air conditioners, used car parts, aluminum siding, brass doorknobs, broken Christmas lights, and computer towers. Businesses that generate scrap regularly arrange a container, roll-off, or pickup service placed at their property.

I'm a fairly intelligent man. Enough that I am never going back with my business. I just so happen to compare prices and by 45% average gave the less amount for 4 types of metals. Copper ...aluminum siding ..batteries...electric motors.

Terrible scrap yard signs saying drive through and a sign saying truck scale that's it nothing else. Drive through is apparently ONLY for none steel so they could have posted that at least. The place is a disaster I'm amazed I didn't get a nail or screw or even an entire piece of metal in my tires with how dirty the yard was. The staff is extremely rude people trying to just drop stuff off instead of directing them at where and what to do but just call them stupid instead. Can barely fit more then one vehicle at a time with that small scale of a yard and building your better off having everything be one way in one way out.

Prices are low. They like talking about other scrap yards. Staff is rude. The rules change daily. This is the worse yard I have visited. I broke my foot here because the steel drop off area is not kept clean.
