This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
Jim's Scrap Metals in Lewistown, PA draws mixed feedback: some praise professional, friendly staff who help unload and offer fair-to-best prices, while others report rude treatment, being turned away, and a quoted-by-phone price not honored. Overall score: 62/100. Strengths: helpful unloading, competitive pricing. Common complaints: customer service inconsistency and occasional waits. Little info on inventory variety, yard organization, or parts-finding, so those aspects are uncertain. Good for scrap drop-off if you value price, but service can be hit-or-miss.
Don't bring your wire here. They don't pay here what you can get in other places.
Called them in advance, and told them what kind of wire I had. They gave me a rate. I drove an hour to find out they wouldn't pay the rate they gave me an hour before
Went to gym scraps today and by honest mistake there was a spray can in with the aluminum cans and I'll tell you what those people are very rude disrespectful and ignorant in every way how are they gonna sit there and cuss you out call you a liar then try not to pay you for the other metals that you've brought in and then tell you not to come back because we ask why what is the problem our apologies can was misplaced. As soon as we pulled in it was nothing but dirty looks and then 2 workers turned their back on my fiancé as he was walking to the door to see what the process of us to recycle our cans would be and he stood there for at least 6 minutes before anybody would even help him and they all kept looking at him Someone finally helps we go away the metal then come back to do the Kansas they asked and then we were treated completely disrespectfully rude and then wanted to tell us not to come back why because I ask you what your problem is and why you're being so unprofessional disrespectful and rude okay gladly we will not return
Best prices I have found in the area, not far out of Lewistown, and very helpful in unloading. I have been to a number of different places, and I will most likely return here soon.
