This rating is based on customer reviews, inventory size, pricing, and service quality
Based on recent feedback, Ferrous Processing & Trading Shelbyville in Shelbyville, TN earns a mixed-but-leaning-positive 71/100. Many praise friendly, respectful staff, prompt service, and convenient unloading; some note an organized yard. However, recurring complaints involve pricing/weight accuracy (shorted pounds, unclean vs clean grades, low catalytic converter offers, inconsistent copper payouts), occasional rudeness at the window, misdirection during unloading, and a muddy/awkward yard with tricky docks. Wait times vary—often fast, but sometimes delayed for semis. Reviews focus on selling scrap; inventory/parts search is unclear.
Yall getting 1 stars for trying to reach into peoples cars when they bring scrap
Keep yalls hands out peoples vehicles when they unload scrap that is rude and yall tryna under cut are scrap pay … maybe the police should check this place out . Cause they doing people dirty and not giving number 1 price for number 1 copper that’s scamming and lying … again stay out peoples cars when they pull up all yall need to do is pull up a bucket we can sort are own 100
These people were cool until I asked the weighmaster lady at the window the other day about catalytic converters and she suddenly became very hateful and very hatefully said to me "WE DONT DO CADDALAC CONVERERS!!!" and slammed the window shut in my face. I don't know what she ASSUMES but I'm a recovering addict with over a year of sobriety under my belt and I don't appreciate being profiled in this way and from now on I'll be going to the one in Unionville or Tullahoma. And, btw, the only reason I even asked about catalytic converers is because I had to get a whole new exhaust system for my truck and I just have the old one laying in my dad's barn. Lost all my business forever.
Truckers,be careful backing into the dock,,, it's like passing ur CDL again!!!there are concrete blocks that should not be on our angles,,,plus that sand mound next to the rail,, should be removed No overnight,,u could overnight by the gate or warehouses around Don't park on side at cumby city tx,rest area($200)
The damn best place around You bring the the goodies and they give you some goodies Some best damn funny ppl and hard work ppl that you can cut up with to They will help you out I love it
This place is a rip off took a catalytic converter they offered me 120 dollars left there and went to tullahoma and they gave me 305 dollars definitely would just drive to tullahoma for best prices on scrap
Got 3x more than expected but the staff on hand is the cause for low rating, had us unloading in the wrong place and struggled with operating the heavy equipment. Finally we moved to the correct place and the crane operator was top notch!
Very nice people. Fair prices. I've posted several fun pictures of metal recycling from this metal yard. Seems very organized and fairly neat for a scape yard. Haha. It's important to not fill the land fills with metal. This was a fun trip and easy to get to. You can always ask questions of any of my reviews. I'm happy to help.
At first it seemed like it was gonna be a good visit, a guy came down and said he was gonna help us because we had ALOT of scrap we were pretty relieved to hear that. He helped throw all the things that we already unloaded further to the pile, then when we actually needed help with an object that weighed well over 1000 lbs he disappeared. Well me and my friend finally got it unloaded and pulled around to the scales to weigh again and he tells us that they are deducting 10% because of snow and ice!! They took 500lbs off my load for that! Knowing good and well there wasnt 500lbs of snow on that metal.. never again
Becareful...took over 100lbs. Of clean aluminum...it was disposed in clean aluminum area..only would pay for unclean. Have been using them and very disappointed in the service that was given today.
