We showed up right at closing on a Saturday and they basically reopened for us to take our recycling because they knew we'd driven from about 30 minutes away... Always friendly and helpful, and always service with a smile - a genuine smile!
Gallegos scrap metal was an easy going, professional and all around great experience for me and will definitely be getting more business from me. I would happily recommend..
My experience at Gallegos Scrap metal was good they give you reasonable cash for your aluminum and scrap metal the employees were professional and courteous id recommended them to anyone trying to get a little Cash for there unwanted scrap.
Went to get scrap to practice welding. Staff was really helpful. After I parked I had someone walk up and ask how they could help me. Had a good experience.
I think it's a rip-off. I've taken 6 bags of unsmashed bags of cans and gotten $13.00, and today I took 4 bags of unsmashed bags of cans and a full bag of smashed cans and only got $4.20 I think they are setting their scales to make sure they make extra money for themselves. That's why everyone goes to Santa Fe nm for their scrap metal.
Very rude people not professional, you cant even ask them questions or else they will get mad, so if you go there don't even think about asking them for help. unorganized staff, they don't even know how to use a scale. I went their with my truck, and there was mud on one side and the other side was fairly clean and they did not let me go on the clean side, they told me you have 4x4 just go through the mud. Don't even waste your time coming here just go to Santa fe Capital, they are way more professional and have a nice staff. Best of all they pay more for scrap, I tell you from experience.
Called prior to making the 45 minute drive there to double check their hours, I was told they would be open until 5 pm. Made the trip and arrived at 2:55 to find the gates closed and locked. Nice. Could have just said they were closing early.
My experience here is always fast,and the older man has always been nothing but nice to me!! He is always happy when I do business with him, mabey he had a bad day the day you were there!!! Everyone has those days!! His job is not an easy one to put up with standing in the heat dealing basically,with our trash!!! So shout out to the older gentalman I don't know your name, but next time ill make sure to get it. So I recommend everyone to go to Gallegos Scrap Metal in Espanola, for your recycling needs👍..Geraldo Cordova.....
The older man that works there collecting the cans is Rude to all customers. .he even has the odasity to yell at them..I sat in my car watching him with three customers and he was so rude and awful..I won't do business here unless the other gentle man is here!
