They won’t accept air conditioning components like copper radiators and compressors without a signed letter saying you recovered the Freon. Never heard of this before. The one across town will and they pay more anyway.
People here are friendly. I take back the low rating review. Sure, they locked me inside with my truck after closing for the day on a Saturday in June 2024, but by Monday everyone was very nice, friendly, and glad to make amends. Spending the weekend inside the scrap yard want so bad (in my imagination). As it happened, the Xenia police were able to let me out with my truck after probably less than an hour.
Showed up at 11:28. They close at 12:00. They were closed. People were there but the drive was blocked with a closed sign. Google says they’re open. Their website says they’re open. They won’t answer the phone.
Incredibly friendly staff. The entire place was very well organized. Before today, I’ve only been to the various scrap yards in Columbus. This place was like the Taj Mahal compared to Columbus scrap yards. I would go there again in a heartbeat
Last time I went I got shorted for 1500# of steel, I think it was just a mistake as I have never had a discrepancy before. It's not their fault but the price for aluminum is way low so don't take it in unless you really need the money. The staff is always nice it's always the same people working in there. Sometimes they let you know where to put your scrap steel sometimes they don't, so if they don't tell me then I always dump it on the same spot I always do. Bring your driver's license because you will need it, if you have aluminum,copper and steel on the same load you will need your license twice, they actually take a picture of you for scrapping copper and aluminum.
It's a metal recycling place. They're efficient and friendly. They keep the roads clear so I don't feel like I'm going to blow a tire visiting them. You have to show ID, but you get cash from the ATM on the way out.
Been going here for my company for the last few years. All the guys are great! I would normally have big loads of old semi parts. it would be either in a truck and dump trailer or in a roll off truck and the guys would help out anyway they could. Bringing in that amount of weight sometimes it would get stuck and not want to come out and I would just ask or sometimes just point. They would know what I needed and get to me as fast as they could. Thanks Guys
guy checking me in was friendly..the guy working in the back not so much. it says on the website "Please note, to keep our prices competitive, we may not have staff available to assist with unloading so if it took two people to load it, bring them along for help in unloading." The guy working in the back walked up with me while i drove my truck and showed me where to unload. Then he stood there and watched me unload my pickup by myself. I wasn't expecting help but if he had time to stand there and watch me he could have helped. I also felt awkward having some dude just stand there and watch me.
don't waste your time and money!the guy who first accept the metal give one price ,after unload all metals they give us receipt with price too low!Terrible place!Do not recommend this place !!!!
My experience was great! The prices were very good and I made a little bit of money. Well worth the time to go out there.
I brought a bag of cans, a piece of metal, and a old, cracked rim. Made about $12 from the trip total and it's just down the road. I got a nice lunch from my earnings.
These guys are complete jerks. I tried to take a load of scrap metal in on Saturday after looking them up on google. Says their hours are 7:30 AM to 2:00 PM on Saturdays. I pulled in at 11:59 AM and they would not let me unload. They were rude about it and when I told them that I saw online they were open until 2 the boss called me a liar. I told them to look it up on google and the guy got irate with me and said they have never been open until 2. So I asked them if there were any other places open and he said "Look it up on google." I ended up going across town to Dayton Xenia Auto since they were open until 2 and those people were great.
