Staff there lied and said that magnetic stainless steel is not real stainless steel and not worth as much and proceeded to give me the price of regular steel for all my stainless. This is a lie and some of the magnetic stainless steel is some of the most valuable stainless steel. Shady business practice. Do not recommend.
They are on top of everything and they pay fair for scrap and will also sell you metals along with whatever else they have that you want to buy i have been dealing with Old Dominion Metals for over 20 years and i have always been happy with the outcome
You call sell your steel, metal products here. The place is organized and well kept. The staff are professional, best place to go for PCS / TDY / Retirement Weigh In/Outs.
EDIT-( Changing my review from a 4 star to 5 star because their customer service is outstanding. They kindly explained to me how to discern for myself on the type of converter I had and were very prompt in their response and polite.) Had to remove a catalytic converter from the Honda crv I have and replace it. They said they accept catalytic converters, and I have heard you can get a good amount of money for them. When I showed up with the Honda cat in the new ones box it was delivered in and all, the gentleman told me that it sounded like everything was in order with it when he checked it, but he told me it is an aftermarket converter of some type and so it is worth less than a normal catalytic converter. If it was an original type it would be worth more. The gentleman offered me xx for it and I accepted, giving him the benefit of the doubt. The gentleman at the counter had good customer service skills, made me feel welcome. Easy to find location and easy to find the office. I will give them another try soon.
Honestly didn't even know they were there. But somebody ran me off the road and caused me to have a car accident and they were the first place I could pull over safely. Joe the forklift operator was nice and didn't rush me off and even gave me some string tie up blue pieces. It's rare a business is that nice anymore.
Fast efficient a little low on the price it varies last time I took the same amount of stuff and got more money so I'm not understanding that part but it was a nice experience
I used to go here all the time and loved going but yesterday I went for the first time in a while and while I was there one of the employees kept staring at me/looking me up and down and it was really creepy. We had a short exchange and when I was about to address him and tell him to f off for being creepy another male employee started saying "oh he just -" and the other men working started chuckling and going along with it and I got out of there as fast as I could. There used to be a very nice man that worked there and I don't know if he still does and just wasn't there yesterday or what but due to the way I was talked to and treated I will not be returning and I do not recommend women go here by themselves. People are supposed to be able to drop off recycling without getting harassed.
I have used this place repeatedly. Prices are honest and the people working are hardworking and honest.
I enjoy finding the steel or aluminum I need. The “scrap/bulk” steel is usually huge remnants that are perfect for me. At $0.30 a lb. I’m more than happy.
What if can’t find “used” they have very reasonably priced brand new stock.
Owner/manager and workers were the nicest people. Bought my item brand new and even found a few other pieces for another project. Definitely recommend to anyone. There is a treasure trove of other items that if interested would probably be for sale as well. I will continue to use them for all my metal and scrap needs!
For a maker, this place is a candy store. New stock is clean, and scrap/used material is incredibly varied, with some *huge* pieces of aluminum and steel I'd never seen as scrap. Definitely a new regular spot for material. Way, WAY cheaper than the metal rack @ the home improvement stores for small quantities, even with the modest cut fee. (new metal comes in 20ft sticks, I have an SUV, 5 bucks and magically it's 3 shorter pieces!)
My husband and I had so much stuff that we rented a uhaul truck. 47 bags of crushed aliminum can, 7 bags of aluminum pans and plenty of brass and copper. They were very patient. 2 guys was on the ground with my husband helping him open and dump the bags as I stayed on the truck pulling the bags. They were very pleasant. Talking and cracking jokes with us will seeing how in the world did we get all this. Our secret we save from one December to the next December and Mery Christmas to our family. Trust me it was worth leaving with $742.56.
I would rate ODR at five stars if they'd stay open long enough for me to get there after work. That said, service is excellent and expedient. Fair prices and usually quick service.
I have had great experiences here I was thankful that my 2010 lifted GMC was able to go in with a trailer and turn around without any problems unlike some others. Thanks for the space
