Super nice people. You can drop off metal recycling after hours in their bin, or get paid for it if you bring it in.

I switched to Silver Creek a few years back, and have zero regrets! As the shop manager for a local commercial trade company, we manage a lot of demo and scrap metals. The Silver Creek family have been professional, friendly, and fantastic to deal/work with. Couldn't ask for a better or cleaner facility either. Thanks again!

Danny, I think, is best in the bizz. He has got this place absolutely tip top. I literally drove past it as you couldnt tell if this is a scrapyard. These guys help a lot with all loading and netting the load. I would rather drive here from Calgary than going to some other shityard.
