I decided to come here today on a whim with five bags of cans. I had been to cyclone recycling before so I wanted to try somewhere new plus it was a little closer to home. Staff behind the counter was friendly and organized and professional and I was out the door within minutes followed by a few simple questions about my information. I recommend coming here to see how much money you can make with your scrap metal.

I went to Princeton Recycling for the first time a couple of days ago and I'll definitely go back. The facility itself is very nice and organized. All of the signage indicating where to go and the state regulations regarding procedures are clearly marked. Everyone from the yard guys to the office staff were extremely polite. A man that I assume was the owner greeted me when I got there and thanked me when I left. The lady in the office was super nice and personable. She said the owner was a 6th generation recycler. All around great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Thank you so much!
