TEXAS BEST RECYCLING in
Alvin (TX)

Friendly helpful and honest. Their prices are competitive with Southside and D&D. Needless to say they blow Cameron's out of the water. It's an easy weigh in weigh out. Just remember to take your driver's license and apply for your cash card on your first trip. You will be paid by check until it comes thru, but it wasn't that big of a deal. I just took a pic of it and it posted in my bank by the end of business. No bank account? Hmmm.... maybe now is a good time to open one.

I collect my large auto parts and random wiring cut-offs from around-the-house items and come hear ~once a year. They spend time making sure I'm getting the correct write-up for my items. They help unload. Easy people to work with. They have a very sweet cat that also lives around the shop.

Couldn't even get anyone to answer the phone

Complete rip off, the thing that sits in the office is a complete joke, she needs to go find a job she likes. She's extremely rude and does not care to be there and out of a $200 plus load of AC scrap (copper) she gave me a check for $45 as if she's doing me a favor. Rest of the workers are lazy and don't care to help with anything they get paid to do either. Definitely won't be back. And for the love of God get that poor excuse of human being in the office a snickers bar or something.

Wouldn't recommend this place, unless you want to get ripped off and flat tires. Employees are rude they will wait until you drop your load of scrap and then say that you are going to be deducted for rediculace reasons. And their scales are not accurate I will never do business with them again !!!!!!

I learned finally to take all my scrap to Texas Best. I got ripped off twice at Cameron's. Then one time l thought let me try one more time. Took a catylatic convertor guy looked at it for awhile and offered me scrap metal price.l left two days later l got $75 for it

Extremely rude. I don't think I've ever met anyone with less compassion and moral fiber than the lady who smugly strutted out saying she doesn't give out her information when I asked if I could have the owner's information. She wore a cross around her neck, but has no clue what it stands for. It says everywhere that they close at 6:30 I got here exhausted after loading all the scrap into my van and she refused me saying they close at 6:15 and I was like are you serious gas is too expensive I am sitting in the parking lot on empty as I write this...thanks lady... I updated your info on Google Maps...! ????

I had to drive to the back of their storage facility then back up partially into the building to unload. It wouldn't have been that bad but the outside area was wet and muddy. Not a good experience. And just heads up...unless you apply and use some type of "cash card" they offer, you will be paid with a check instead of cash. Their prices are competitive with surrounding scrap metal places.

I've came here quite a bit in the last year but today will be our last time. The workers are not friendly at all. Today we pulled up with a truck bed full. Nobody was in the shop. When we finally seen one of the workers we tried talking to him and he just ignored us. We drove our truck back to the front and attempted to talk to him again. He just looked at us and kept walking. Just not the way to run a good business. People aren't going to come back when you have people getting paid that don't want to work.

The Staff Here Is Super Nice And Quick.. Didn't Really Shop Around On Price But I Felt I Got A Good Deal For What I Had..

Great bunch of people fair price close to home had to unload myself but it was right at quitting time so understandable ???

The worker was a lil frumpy but it was understandable seeins it was at quitting time so unloaded ourselves....was 1.5 cent less than in northwest Houston but close to home so evens out...will come back again and not so close to quittin time

They pay too little, go to another place, C&D or somewhere else, don't go there...?

Great place...prices are fair only if you been going to them for a while..they don't take any tomfoolery

Great assistance kindness, very helpful employees,well rounded organized business

I was in and out in about 5-10 minutes no muss no fuss cash in hand good place

So they are 33%to 50% lower then everyone else. I called them to inform them. they said i know. And my boss knows. We are lower then everyone else. So id go anywhere but there.... Camrens, santa fe, d&d.... Every one guves more$$$ so if you are doing it for money anywhere else is the place to go

Never again. The are very rude people. They didn't even help me unload. The pay very low.

Never had a problem, been going since they opened and always fair to me. They are helpful and do get busy so yes sometimes you have to wait but that's business. The lady that cashes you out is polite and gets you out fast.

I visited this recycler for the first time and each staff member I encountered was patient, professional and ver polite to me. Even with my inability to speak well and the language difference that many get frustrated with, it was a very positive experience for me. Thanks to all y'all ?

This place sucks. If you have anything heavy be prepared to unload it yourself. They just stare at you and some dont even speak English. Most of the time you have to sit and wait for someone to walk to the scale to weigh you. And the lady that runs the cash needs to dress a little more professional. Whole in the wall place. Went one day to unload and when they brought their machine to help my strap wasnt even undone and they picked up my whole trailer. Careless, rude, unprofessional place. Camerons is way better

I have been going there for years and I went there today and the owner told me he wouldn't buy my scrap because my 12 year old son was helping me which my son has been helping me for years and the owner has never been there I will never go there again because after he refused to buy my scrap he caused at me in front of my son and even tried to fight me

One day they'll​ buy your stuff another day they ask for a license makes no sense why did y'all buy my refers a couple times then no more

i called 2 places to make sure recycling price was same just dropped off some aluminum rims for recycling today 3/24/16 Texas Best employees were really nice & professional. Young man helped me with 2 rims. Saw the scale & it agreed with the weight i got at home. Young lady at the office paid with check. Was able to get in & get out. Yes i would go back & yes would recommend.

I've been doing business with you guys and can say nothing bad about you guys. You pay top dollar and have a friendly staff.

Pay fair, friendly staff, very helpful. Would have been 5 stars if they had been a little bit more lenient on what they accepted for metal. They accept a very low percentage of fluff, which is a negative for the professional or part-time scrapper.

Thanks Texas Best Recycling! You pay top dollar on cans and metal. I am a recycler, reuser and try my best not to throw anything away. Your location is easy to find and the hours work well with my schedule. I will see you again soon and will recommend you to all of my recycle friends!
