What clients say about A Recycling Center in Columbia (SC)
Very helpful, very sweet, for never being there and not knowing where to park, these wonderful people directed me around, helped unload the truck and were very polite!
This facility is one of the few facilities that actually pays you for the materials that you bring in. There are some places that will let you drop off your stuff and don't give you any type of monetary compensation. This recycling center actually pays you for what you bring in aluminum cans a little scrap steel iron and many other things that they purchase here. So it's a service to the community and a great way to make a side hustle legally. I will let you know that you do need a permit to sell certain materials so this is for their protection and a protection of the city but other than that the recycling center is great and I love it.
I've been going to A Recycling Center for years. The gentleman are always so helpful and have awesome attitudes! God bless this business & everyone who works there! They are great!
Their website says they take paper/cardboard but they don’t.
In Columbia, you have to call the city (545-3800) and notify them of cardboard for pickup when the trash guy comes around. Cardboard must then be broken down and ready next to your trash can.
Paper has to be in the trash can in trash bags.
Fast and easy service. Although getting into the lot was confusing but after parking it was really simple. An easy way to get paid for your items throwing away.
Pays less than other scrap yards. And did not give me a print out of my scrap weight and pricing. Mid carolina pays 20-35% more. They give clients documentation of their scrap sell. Good place to take cans I guess. Been scrapping metal a long time.
They give fair prices based on the market. The employees have been here a long time and are very knowledgeable and helpful when you are trying to sort out your metal
