The facility was easy to get to. Great communication between you, the outside employees and scale master. They had me unloaded and paid in about 15 minutes. Good scrap prices too.
First scrap yard I've been to that had a macaw running the payout window. Tried to convince him to upgrade my #2 ICW to #1 but he just said hello and kept breaking pens.
Quick and easy. Weigh going in..you unload the metal..weigh going out. Today was 7.5 cents per pound. Copper and some other metals pay more. Less than a mile off interstate 65. Check them out.
I’ve only been here once so far but that’s all it took for me to have a very pleasant experience! They are quick and accurate , could not ask for a more friendly group of people . They are very fair with prices as well . Great place to do business ! Highly recommend!
Very friendly staff, today was my first time in a scrap yard all the employees were very nice specially mr Jetry Lucas, I made sure to ask his name because he helped me unload a lot of my scrap and everyone else was so nice and ready to help.
This is my go to yard in BHAM. Good prices, and nice staff. I’ve brought in some weird stuff (heavy motors with large chunks of brass attached) and they worked with me increase the price even though the material is dirty. Only thing is if you are new make sure they pay you for the right non ferrous stuff. Sometimes they don’t like using a magnet to check what you bring in.
This place is awesome. The Owner, employees in the back, all the way to the women who work the front pay desk are like family to me. They don't put up with rift raft at all, he keeps great records of what he takes in so don't try recycling stolen stuff because he will call the cops. But other than that he is a good fair man running a great business. And I recommend Rather's!
Just have your things separate as best you can. I drive a little further because I Rather . go there. LOL no hassle .Clean place for a recycling Accurate scale my copper weight at home first. Have your ID
Friendly people. The owner tries to get to know his customers and gets to knowing them by name . he also shows his face unlike alot of owners and works the window . all except for being an auburn fan is ok with me but can deal with that . Roll Tide Roll . thanks for the geat business you run
Got a quote from Mr. Rather for some catalytic converters. My wife took them up a month later to turn them in. We were quoted $30 a pc. We got $80 for all four. I'd would be fine with this however scrap prices for precious metals has risen considerably over the past 6 months. I gave it three stars for the help on the quote and because they're a typical business.
