What clients say about Prime Materials Recovery in Willimantic (CT)
-
Getting There:
Use Trucker Path to stay on truck-safe roads, but once you get very close, switch to Google Maps because Google shows the entrance more accurately. Trucker Path does not clearly show the exact entrance.
Do NOT miss the entrance. Slow down when you’re close. If you miss it, you can end up on small roads trucks shouldn’t be on, stuck trying to turn around in a church parking lot like I did, or forced to go all the way around.
The place is easy to miss because it’s on the corner and does not look like a real business. It looks like a house. On the right side, you’ll see a brown Catholic church. On the left side, there’s a large blue house/apartment-style building. The facility is on the left side.

2. The Facility & Backing:
Once inside, drive all the way to the back. The backing is very tight and stressful. There are boxes everywhere and they don’t move much out of the way. They moved one box for me, but that’s it. If you’re not experienced with tight backing, be prepared.
To leave, you have to back all the way out. There is no pull-through exit.

3. The Workers:
The workers were respectful and patient. Once you’re in the dock, they unload pretty fast. My issue is not the staff — it’s the tight setup.
⸻
4. Hours & Parking:
They open at 7 AM and it’s first come, first serve. I would not recommend coming at night. The area is not truck-friendly and there is very limited space to park and wait.
⸻
Final Thoughts:
Personally, I wouldn’t come back because of how tight and stressful it is. If you accept this load, just be ready.Feb 12, 2026 -
I've been there several times . It's very tight to maneuver. It suck going in there. This is the worst place to unload at. This place needs to be condemned.

Good movers, but the space is very small. Stay away, it's easy to break a truck.

If you are a truck driver, never come to this place. You will have hard time to back in to a dok, and when you leave, you will have to back up all the way you come in, and it’s very narrow, this place is a mess. Trust me, I’m driving almost 10 years, I have some experience, avoid this place if you have a 53 foot trailer.
