His shop was closed and he let me bring my scrap to his home

Paul was very helpful in buying my copper wire and reliable in his service I recommend

Very pleased with the service. We had a lot more of copper leftover and Paul was great and professional. Thank you again

Very good pricing and helpful!! Highly recommend

Opened on weekends, quick service, respectful and great prices. Answered promptly had cash in hand within minutes! Highly recommended!!

Great price and honest with you will use them again 👍

Great experience. Paul was very accommodating with my time frame, allowing me to drop off some scrap late on a Sunday evening. Would do business with him again.

Hi i have been trying to call for days now and can not get in contact with anyone at all just keeps going to mailbox full then hangs up please contact me back or let me know of a better way to contact you your reviews are great about catalytic converters

Great place to do business with! Fair price, and extremely flexible hours. Will be back

Thank you I got a very good price on my copper and brass they were very professional I highly recommend selling your scrap with this company

Had a pleasant experience. I called in the afternoon to scrap some CAT6 and CAT5 cables and Paul was extremely reliable and efficient in the process. He offers great prices and knows what he is doing. Do not hesitate to do business here!

Super helpful, honest scale and good prices!! Highly recommend!!

Got a great price, honest people it’s a family owned company and they are amazing!!! I had called a few other companies before and they were no good. Emperor handled it beautifully and picked up my car no problem. Anthony and his Dad are truly amazing people!!!

Great place to sell your copper and copper wire got more then we thought we would get got paid in cash in a large amount they was very professional would recommend to anyone

Had a great experience. I called later in the evening after a long day of demoing copper wire. He was at the shop, but he was about to leave so he was kind enough to let me and my coworker bring our wire to his house. We pulled up 10 minutes later, put it on his scale and had cash before we left.

Great guy very responsive great prices as well for my old catalytic converters overall great experience even offered to pick them up great doing business

Very pleased with today's transaction. Owner actually came to my location on a Sunday no less whom was very pleasant. Discussed pricing for clean copper and was paid fair amount. Knowledgeable and professional. Will recommend and call you with the next load! Thank you very much.

The gentleman and what I had and before I could list everything off he cut me off and said we don't take those and hung up. I wasn't finished speaking. I tried to call back but he kept ignoring my calls. There website says cash on hand for catalytic converters but apparently they don't take those.

Sold my converter from my Ford Escape, Paul was very pleasant to work with, $ on the spot, good price great service. Thank you!

Call for a quote, sent pictures of my catalytic. Gave me a quote 20 minutes later! Even offer to pick up just one item! Great to work with!

Unbelievable service goes way out of their way to make sure that the customer is taken care of I've never seen a business run this way before but now I know why he's so successful I would recommend it to all my friends it was a 20-minute drive but well worth it some of the nicest people you ever want to meet definitely going to model my business after the way they operate theirs because obviously it's a success William Lunt

I had to get a car towed and junked and I was out of state. They were excellent to work with and the process was very easy! The men I dealt with were very nice and I got wonderful service! I’d recommend them to anyone in the area, or out of the area ☺️

I love Emperor Recycling! I pull up, weigh my scraps and I'm back on the road within 5 min with cash in hand every time. They even come to me when I have a big load that I can't fit it in my car and they weigh n pay me on the spot! I recommend Emporer Recycling every time!

These guys came right out to my house to pick up my scrap metal. They were very friendly and professional. They paid a fair price for my metals and paid cash on the spot. I’ll definitely call them again.

Friendly service and came as soon as we needed. Service was great but the payment came late. Understandable since the amount wasn't much and the service was completed during the Omicron season.

The person I met with was respectful and friendly. I will say I am disappointed at the price I was given over the phone vs what I got. All of it was in good condition but it’s a great place to go when you need to dispose of metals quickly. When called they respond fast and pickup 100% of the time.

Fast exchange, fair price! I didn’t get my scrap weighted but got what I was aiming for. Friendly interaction and environment was a big plus! I was in and out in five minutes with a smile on my face!
