What clients say about Can-It Recycling and Demolition in Corona de Tucson (AZ)
Sold them copper once before and was paid "fair". Took them a 50lb deep cycle marine battery today, (they are FULL of lead in comparison to normal car batteries), and was only paid $6?! I could have gotten $12 just at Walmart, but I try to use local businesses whenever I can. Per scrap lead prices today, I should have gotten at least $20? I would have taken it somewhere else, but I didn't want to load it back up and mess with it during rush hour. Unfortunately, I will have to take my scrap somewhere else from now on. Prices paid here seem to be predatory.
Originally I would have gave it five stars because when they scrapped my metal they called everything what it was and gave me the right price the first time..I went this time and one time before and they told me that my brass was painted aluminum when I had an entire bucket full of other full brass items.. I'm a plumber I know what brass is and for them to give me a painted aluminum on all of it even though there was a couple of plates that were aluminum and not painted. And the time before I brought brand new copper and they give me type 2 dirty copper. its looking like a hustle not based on evidence and facts ..it's .40 cents for painted aluminum and it's a 1.63 for bras$. And thats dirty brass. My 25 lbs would have came out a lot more. I no longer like this place there's a reason they change workers all the time. They probably do them dirty so they have to do us dirty-errr.. do they get commission here?I don't know?
Beware of there tactics because they will con you into taking a lesser price for aluminum cans, they will tell you that your cans are from a different zone and not worth the going price for aluminum.
Again, I'm very happy with your employees customer service and friendlyness while the were sweating and working. I wish I could buy your employees a beer. Lol.
GREAT PLACE! BRING YOUR RECYCLING HERE! get a member card to get a reduced price and FOLLOW their Facebook page to get exclusive prices (like RIGHT NOW till AUG 8th2025 .75 lb alumn.)
They take plastic(20cents) as well as aluminum(60cent) (July2025)
they have a bunch different knick knacks and old car parts! lota stuff to look at there.
quick service, they take your bags for you weigh it, give you a receipt to cash it out with the blonde lady at the front :)
Fast, friendly service. They got me unloaded quickly, I had over one hundred pounds. They helped restack the boxes the cans were in, got paid immediately. Excellent experience ?
We had such a wonderfully bizarre experience here. Bizarre only because the staff is remarkably friendly and accommodating. It was our first time going here and we were blown away by the welcoming atmosphere and great service- not typical aspects of most recycling center/metal drop off type places. We only had a small amount of household recycling and they were still eager to help us out. We will definitely return :)
The owner Dave helped me and my BF out we got a flat on the way to yard and we called due to use being regulars as long as we got there at 5 he would help us. The next 4 days they were closed. So it was right at 5 he gave us some money. ThanKS to him we had a Great Christmas. Thank you. He'll always have our loyalty.
Very impressed with this company. First time there. Place was very clean .quick service. This is how all customers service should be. I thank you for the great customer service.
Ive gone there regularly with my cans, its generally around the same amount crushed. I usually walk out with at least $20. at 50. A pound. This time i went in with slightly more than usual, and they were paying 60. a pound. So how how did i only walk out with $16.? They ripped me off, straight up. Tried to bring it up, the guy was stoic, said nothing. My cans were already mixed in with rhe rest, nothing i could really do. Rip offs. Weigh your stuff before you go.
I love, CAN IT!! No matter if I am bringing in my own scrap cans or scrap metal from home or out of town; CAN IT! is the only place to go. If I happen to be late, and they close; then I shall wait until they open. I absolutely will not go anywhere else and I believe everyone should go to CAN IT! for the best outstanding services. Very Family oriented and Friendly to all. THANK YOU & BLESS YOU ALL OF THE CAN-IT FAMILY
So, I was planning on going to another recycler when I read the reviews and people had not much nice to say about that company. Then I saw someone suggested simply, "Can it!" I took the good advice and this is what I got...a WONderful experience of a family owned business, loving people, who took care of me like I WAS family...and who paid me top dollar. I could not have been any happier! Like was said to me, I say to you...CAN IT!!! You'll be glad you did! CAN IT!
First time there. Loaded up my truck with random scrap metal to go drop off. The entire staff was super friendly! Would definitely recommend this business for metal recycling!
The employees are mean! One employee scolded me on two different occasions. I picked up a few cans laying on site that were dug deep in the sand. No one stopped me and told me I wasn't supposed to do that. I guess they were dropped from other people bringing in their recycle. The middle-aged Caucasian man scolded me at the window and told me that is considered stealing and if I ever did that again I can never come back. He paid me out the $0.61. I felt bad, returned, and gave him back the money (so he got my cans for free). I told him I didn't realize I was doing something wrong. Instead of acknowledging the misunderstanding, he proceeded to scold me again and this time told implied that I did not have common sense and asked why didn't I just start taking all the scrap metal on site? Wow. I couldn't believe it. Who does that - says that, after I already owned up to my mistake AND gave back what he paid me? This is not the first time I have been there and been scolded. I was scolded previously for not separating my aluminum from my metal. He can't seem to say a single nice word to any one. Not a business I will deal with. I will recycle with Recyco, Inc., Arizona Recycles, LLC, or Tucson Iron and Metal. I'm a combat military veteran, not a criminal, and I didn't that he implied I was a thief and had no common sense. Unbelievable.
I have been here several times to unload all kinds of scrap metal. Everyone is always friendly and helpful. They will even let you know if your scrap isn’t organized properly to try to help you earn a little extra. Great company!
Can-It recycling was an efficient and professional service for aluminum can recycling. They were quick to service us and were very kind. The whole deal took about 20 minutes and we had over 300 pounds of aluminum. We were amazed by the prices, substantially higher than any other in Southern Arizona. If you’re looking to recycle anything, their prices are very good. Definitely be an recycle-it-all and will be there soon.
Always speedy service and friendly, informational staff. The facility could use an upgrade and become more modernized because parking/getting out can be tricky, due to the small driveway when there are multiple vehicles, along with a few other factors. But, otherwise, I always go here. Really good service.
Fastest experience I've had thus far, everything took less than five minutes, from the transferring from car, to scale, to completing the pay-out. Will definitely return here.
Always very happy. Competitive prices and extremely friendly and helpful staff. Just wish there were more locations as I live on the east side next to the base. Please expand!! :D
Great place and good people to do business with. Everyone is very friendly and helpful and the gal in the booth is fabulous! I take my recycling to them every time.They make it easy to do. Thank you to all the hard workers there - you are super!
"Best" place to cash-out on your recycling efforts. Staff is ALL GOLD!!! They are very friendly with positive customer service type attitude. They will keep you informed and updated about deals and incentives to put extra money in your pocket. They also have their own set of great incentives to keep your patronage. I have also noticed that they are honest and won't rip you off on your weight which has happened to me several times recycling at other places.

We have gone 3-4 times and they are always very polite and helpful. We always get the .5 increase because of our effort to try to get a coupon. They asked us to do the review and so this is what I am doing. They are a good business.
