What clients say about Sikora Metals in Detroit (MI)
They were really kind even let me in a few minutes before they closed and I got good prices on scrap metal so I'll be returning in the future highly recommend going there
First time visiting today as my normal closer. City recycling wasn't open. Got here in a few minutes. Staff was very cordial and nice. Helped me get to the right locations to deposit certain metals i was dropping off. Overall great experience and will be back. Staff and system is great.
Owner of a small local landscaping business, Lake and Lands Services and was in the area after a fence removal job and needed somewhere to get rid of my junk fence post. The team over at Sikora took care of me the once I entered the scrap yard and even helped me off load with there huge machines. It was the most professional and clean yard I have used. Price was fair and I walked out with cash receipt that I could scan at there Atm. Highly recommend!
Was told they paid better than where we were going We recycle 2-4 quads a day of scrap so upon trying them out employees were acting all methed out wouldn't let me dump my load wanted to use crane Hit the box with the crane broke a hydrolic line on my truck then said they weren't paying for the load cause they had to clean up the hydraulic fluid Straight up robbed us Im telling everyone that referred us to never go there again and that's just the civil repercussion my operator worked all day for that load took food out our kids mouths
Mike, Kevin & Alan were most helpful during my repeat visits to liquidate loads of scrap metal from antiquated machinery and tools that had accumulated in my father’s workshop. Their prices were quite good and reasonable, and they were quite friendly and approachable. I highly recommend them. The scrap yard parking lot pavement is kept clean, by the way.
Sikora Metals is awesome and, by far, the best scrap yard around! All the guys are very knowledgeable and ready to help. Oh, and I can't believe how clean everything is!! No mud, no flat tires. Thank you!!
Mike and crew went above and beyond to expedite a roll off out to our site to get rid of a bunch of various scrap. Exceptional response time and customer service all around. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for this type of service.
Really convenient and easy to get to. The employees are helpful and efficient. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. I was getting rid of some old aluminum wheels.
