  Metal recycling yard. No paved roads, and there's tiny shards of debris laying around so drive carefully. Drove in a little to spot someone and asked where to put our metals. We recycled a printer, modem tower, and blender today. I saw everything from metal benches, appliances, computers, radios, to scrap metal everywhere.

  Helped me scrap a car even though I didn't realize I showed up right as the yard closed. Quick and easy to work with. Make sure to be there at least 30 minutes before close.

  Was a little confused about where to go with the first part of my load, but once I managed to figure out their organization of things it was a pretty good experience. Will definitely be returning.

  First time here today. As an electrician for 20 years I've been to several recycling centers to bring in scrap copper wire. This place is by far the best. Pulled right in, the scrap workers helped me unload, they were friendly, I went right to counter for cash payout in hand. This is my favorite place from now on and I recommend to everyone.
