What clients say about First Stop Core & Battery in Fayetteville (NC)
The folks at this place is amazing, I really appreciate everyone that helped me with my stuff today, I had no idea I had to separate everything the metal from aluminum and other things I had. They showed me just honesty and respect. Thank you guys for all yals help. I highly recommend that you folks take all yals metal and other things to them
Had to come here because the other metal place I go to the scales wasn't working. Came here and it's the smallest junk yard I ever seen. Can hardly turn around and one of the guys that was working shit talking me while I was there. Wasn't very friendly this place is the cheapest around and is only paying 9 cents a pound. They were talking shit that I couldn't back a trailer. Never coming here again although the lady that works here is nice
Smallest junk yard I have ever been too. There is no room what so ever to maneuver a full size truck in and out. Every time I have been here I have left with a nail or screw in my tires because they do not properly clean up the places vehicles have to drive through when coming in and out of this hell hole tight squeeze of a maze.
The employees that I have dealt with are great , but that's about the only good thing I can say about this place. The property and inventory is poorly managed meaning their is no room to move around. Wouldn't even think of trying of bringing a trailer because you will never be able to get turned around due to their very poor space management , it's hard enough to get in and out with a full sized truck. Personally my biggest issue with the place is the fact that they expect you to separate the NO.1 steel from plain junk/shredder metal but will not pay you the difference in price. Every other yard I've been to pays at least $1 per hundred more for #1 steel but not these guys. There is definitely room for and the possibility of improvement but I'm sure it will never happen.
To be honest a lot of places i've been to don't alway's have everything we need, but when we come here the price's are very reasonable, and they take care of their customers the way shops should. They even were kind enough to deliver it to the house for a fee of course, and helped put it where I needed it. Honestly this place is great. This isn't a fake review. This is from a real customer of there's.
This is my second trip in about 3 years and the guys there really work fast took care of me I didn't know exactly how to go through the process and they walk me through it and I got the feeling that they weren't trying to just give me the lowest price that they possibly could I definitely recommend them
