I have been coming here to recycle cans and metals since I moved around the corner 12 years ago, and I would hesitate to go anywhere else. I’ve gone to one other recycling facility that pays for cans and they didn’t pay as much and the process was more complicated and time consuming. The staff has always been extremely helpful and courteous and quick to get me in and out. A contractor or lawn and leaf bag of crushed cans can get you about $5. Uncrushed, about half that. The pay for other types of metal isn’t very good but I’m sure comparable or more than other places around. Also I like their hours and that they are open on Saturday. Nothing bad to say about these guys!!

Overall these are really good guys and they pay fair recycle prices. They could use a larger location because it's a little tight getting in/out to unload.

My first time here as a commodity trader. Very easy process but you need your ID. Park inside the lot, unload your stuff, taking care to separate out the different kinds of scrap, and they'll take it from you. I was surprised how much I got for what I brought.
