This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
In Philadelphia, PA, Lombardo Iron & Metal, Inc. scores an 84/100. Reviews lean positive: professional, courteous staff; short wait times with quick check-ins and fast dumpster turnarounds; fair-to-good pricing; a well‑organized yard; and strong inventory variety that makes parts (including truck/older-model pieces) easy to find. Reliability and on-time container service are praised. Still, complaints recur about rude phone interactions, alleged underweighing or misclassification, tight maneuvering space for large vehicles, and payouts that feel low—so service quality appears strong but inconsistent.
Lombardo's offered us a great price,also they very helpful to make sure there employees new we were coming so there was no confusion.my entire time there was 5 minutes. It would be wise to reach out to them for ur next precious metal experience.
My company sent me to drop off heavy duty rebar and woven cable. And I was completely ripped off.
My first time doing this. I’m sure I looked like a noob. Gentleman in the front tested and started unloading my stuff. Then after a few winks and nods, he put it back on my trailer and sent me across the scale.
I came home with 150lbs of “light metal”. Completely ripped off. We will not be doing business with this company again.
These people are so skilled in what they do. I am so thankfully that the owner of this establishment matches prices at such an affordable rate! Super professional and speedy as well. What a great company!
They constantly steal, today was the final straw , I went to them with a broken down wire fence and plenty other metal, maybe 300 lbs , they told me it was only 180 pounds and proceeded to wrap the money up in the receipt , there usual deceitful tactic so you don’t see right away when you are being scammed , person at the window weighing is very dishonest
I have known Joe Lombardo for decades, he is a fun, hardworking, and a dedicated man to his craft.
I requested a 30yrd dumpster last month to be dropped off in a narrow driveway in Chester County. The drop off was right on time and the driver was courteous, professional and highly skilled. Lombardo Iron & Metal brought out a second 30yrd can when they picked up my first one. Again, this driver did a excellent job maneuvering the can in and out of a tight driveway with no issues at all. Their team is extremely reliable, highly skilled, fair, and I highly recommend Lombardo Iron & Metal.
Great place to scrap metal and if you have construction debris to get rid of they are the best for under a ton. Really nice people and that matters to me..
These guys are just great. Made the whole experience super easy and gave me a great price for my scrap. Customer service is top tier and will definitely be returning in the future. Thanks again Jim!
"The employees were very helpful", "Great Prices!", "Customer service is great! Fast response for dumpster services. Definitely recommend without a doubt one of the best companies to work with!
I changed my opinion with the nice humble reply from owner. They were fair I just was ignorant to how scrapping works you need to seperate all if you want the best prices
Great place to dump metals and receive money. Don’t expect to get too much tho, dropped off an aluminum dishwasher and got $4.50. Guys are nice and quick though with their service.
Convenient west Philadelphia location for all your scrap metal and debris dump needs. It a rather small location so it hard to get around with larger vehicles.
Called Lombardo for a 30 yard dumpster, they delivered in 2 days. Joe put the can in a very tight driveway exactly where we needed it. Picked up the can the day after we called and did not leave a scrap behind.
This is a top notch place. everybody, and I mean everybody, was polite and treated me well. Easy to work with and professional. I have been other places over the years where I felt I was a nuisance and had to look all over to find someone to help me. Not here! Fast , Prompt and Courteous!
I needed to get rid of a bunch of iron and other miscellaneous metal, the scrappers who usually pick up from the sidewalk seem to be on vacation. The staff here are helpful pointing where you need to put each type of item. I drove away with $100 bucks and pleased that my valuable scrap was not going to end up in a landfill.
First trip to the place I scrapped some light steel I pre-weighed and my weight was 720 pounds but once I thier scales I only had 320 pounds....made me wonder....so I pre weighed my second load and it weighed 970 pounds....guess what happened?? The scale guy cashed me out at 420 pounds!!! I was sodisgusteds...that's more than half my scrap weight your business is stealing from my company!!!!!!!! My employees are now directed to never ever drop off again at your scrap yard!!!! A&W LLC will never ever be got by you guys again !!!!!
There aren’t enough stars to give showing how much I recommend this service. With the Lombardo crew you hands down will not be disappointed! Fantastic people = Excellent Service
Joe is one of the best people I’ve ever had the privilege to meet. Their yard and fleet of trucks are the definition of professionalism. The staff is courteous and welcoming. You can’t go wrong with the Lombardo family!
We use Lomabardo metal's rolloff container service for our demolition work. They provide us with containers for scrap metal and pay top dollar. We are constantly shopping around for price but Lombardo is always the highest and their service is excellent. They show up when they say and will deliver as many containers on site as I need. They are a great company to deal with.
Called around for pricing on bare bright wire. Lombardo was the highest. When I got there the staff was very friendly and helpful. They weighed my scrap and I got paid exactly what they quoted me. I was in and out too. This place is great, great people, fast service, I highly recommend!!!
Great service, fair prices. He does my metal service with 40 yard at my location. Weights are fair, numbers are good. I would recommend using them for scrap and waste removal
The scales are off. Lombardo's scale had a manufacturer rated 150lbs. stove weighed in at 100lbs. Bad for business. I have always felt they where off but this was the only time I could prove it to myself.
Total rip off artists. 780 lbs cast (heavy) 140 lbs light steel. He "lost" our ticket. $40 and some change. I'm not new, just in a hurry and didnt want to start anything. No receipt. NOTHING. A true scam.
