Nelson Recycling LLC. in
Pine City (MN)

11/18/25 12:20pm I came in to dump some scrap with a dump trailer. I parked on the scale for a couple minutes. The place has junk everywhere, and not even enough room to pull in. An employee then told me that they didn’t have enough room for me to pull in to dump my scrap. They wanted me to back in. So, I began to back in to dump my scrap and the lady behind the counter opened her window and started screaming at me out the window. She was yelling that I needed to stop my truck so that she could get my weight. Apparently, they never saved my weight from when I had pulled in 30 seconds prior. She had not given me any direction prior to screaming at me. Instead of backing in, I told the man that I would be leaving and taking my business elsewhere. I do NOT appreciate being screamed at. I just moved to the area, and this was my first time at your establishment and I was bringing you my business and looking to meet and support local businesses. This woman is the face of your business, and she was SCREAMING at me. After this incident, i called up there to ask the woman’s name. I said that I would be speaking with the owner regarding this woman’s behavior and the way she treats customers. The man told me he would NOT give me her name because I “would get myself into a lot of trouble”. I’m not sure if this was a threat, but this Nelsons business is an absolute and complete JOKE!!! I left and took my business elsewhere!
