Good place to bring scrap, don't listen to the bad reviews. They're extremely fair and if you feel like you've been ripped ask them how you can separate the various metals to maximize your payment. They aren't gonna hold your hand but they'll answer any questions you have.

This company literally just dumps metal fragments all over the ground. Right beside a park. Amazing. Slowly expanding like a virus. Google metal recycling to see what actual metal recyclers do instead of dumping it for years.

Very friendly phone reception. It should be noted they do not accept consumer NiCd or alkaline batteries, contrary to their website's accepted materials list.

Every time i take the same metal i get charged for something different. The guy operating the big magnetic machine won't unload your flatbed trailer unless if you offer him money or its closing time. I lose almost 50% of the value by coming here. Today was my last visit.
