These people that work here are rude. The first time we went there we waited about 10 minutes for someone to move out of the way of the scales. The sign and online says they close at 330pm. By the time the guy moves out of the way of the scales it is 305pm. We go inside and they say the scales closed at 3 and would not take a small load of scrap. My son goes back on another occasion with his sister and they are rude again. Also check your IDs if you are going pick and choose to take metal from people under 18.

The people were very nice and helpful. I felt they were made sure to help us to get the most for our scrap. Other businesses don't explain the types of metal and why some is higher than others. I will use them from now on

Employees are very very rude. It's not what they say but how they jump at you and say it with an attitude. Also they close at 3:30 and will not finish taking your scrap. And for some reason they are ready to go home after working for only one hour after their last break!! Bet they would be mad if a restaurant kicked they out at closing whether they were finished with their meal or not
