They don't accept ferrous metals. I didn't see prices advertised. It's drive thru only. Only one guy there seemed nice enough and spoke English enough to give me information. I just started recycling there doesn't seem to be too many places to take your metals so I'll be going back.

Apparently they only recycle aluminum cans with CRV. If you have regular aluminum cans they don't take them even though they are aluminum. Aluminum has value because it's a metal. They should pay by regular aluminum price for those cans
