What clients say about Sims Metal - Johnston, Rhode Island in Johnston Township (RI)
Just because you deal with scumbag customers every day doesn’t make everyone who walks in the building or on the property a scumbag. Was on the property doing official gas work for the gas company and was told to leave, that I didn’t check in. Was inspecting all gas meters on the street with no trouble, all meters were gated areas and had to require authorization except for their gas meter. Very Rude!
If you are a truck driver and coming here to pick up rims, don't waste your time. Was told to be here by noon arrived 1115, was told was not getting loaded until the next day due to not arriving early enough. After explaining I was told to be here by noon I was told that it takes 5 hours to load the truck per their procedure of loading. Climbed back in truck had dispatch find me new load. They were polite but this place does not respect drivers time to make a 5 hour loading process. You are able to park overnight on road and polite receives 2 stars otherwise dont bother.
This is the place I go to scrap steel and aluminum.
I choose this place because it's off the highway and I don't need to worry about traffic. You drive onto the scale then go unload your scrap then drive back onto the scale. It's effortless. I've never waited in a long line like some of the scrapyards in Providence and Cranston.
