  This place has improved significantly in the last couple years. Chris runs the floor and he clearly takes it seriously, and is very patient and friendly. They scrape the lot, which makes a big difference, and they have more machines than they used to which makes unloading faster. Prices comparable to other yards in the area.

  Helpful guys, patient and friendly! Great attitude, even when we kept them a little late, in the rain, on a Friday, due to some trouble we ran into. Al is a surgeon with a skid loader.

  Went to get rid of a few things from my garage and didn’t anticipate on the process being quick and easy as it was. GREAT customer service!!! Everyone was so helpful and knew their job. I can tell it’s teamwork amongst those men. Referred my father and he also , had a very friendly, easy process. The 1 hour drive was worth it! We both be visiting this yard again !

  By far the best recycling place I've been to. Very friendly staff and very helpful. I personally won't go anywhere else but here from now on. Shout out to Chris and max for going above and beyond!

  I’ve been to many scrapyards around SE Mich. and this is by far the cleanest facility I’ve ever seen. The staff was cordial and very approachable unlike most places where you’re made to feel unwelcome. Thank you to Max, Al and Chris for making my copper exchange pleasant and easy. Go Blue!

  I’m an electrician and this is the only place I will go to return scrap wire. Today while I was returning wire, my box broke and Max saw and brought containers out to my car to help out. And when I got inside, Al was super quick and helpful and made sure I was getting the most money for my scrap. The guys are always very helpful and I would definitely recommend going here over anywhere else.

  Good guys who are helpful and patient. I was pleasantly surprised every step of the way. I was only coming in to make sure batteries were properly disposed of, so I was sure the quantity I brought in would be a low-priority to them. They never made me feel like it though. I appreciate them being around to protect the environment from everything going in household trash. Thanks so much!

  It was my first time there and I was feelin a bit bad I was cutting it close to closing on a Saturday... The guys there were friendly, helpful, and had a well organized system. In-and-out in about 10/15 minutes with time to spare. Much appreciated, actively recommending

  Fantastic place! All the guys working there are friendly and beyond helpful! They gave me a hand unloading everything from my vehicle, respectfully joked around, and provided a price breakdown to make sure I agreed with what everything was worth.

  Awesome! Scrapped an old '94 Honda. Picked it up, paid a very fair price and nice driver who laughed with me when I accidentally gave him the title copy and had to get the original off my printer! Process was simple, easy, and quick! Highly recommended for Lenawee County.
