We are part of The David J. Joseph Company, the nation's most experienced scrap metal broker and recycling company. We are also a part of Nucor Corporation, the largest steel and steel products producer in the United States and the #1 recycler in North America. We pay cash for household and farm scrap, from washing machines to tractors, and offer comprehensive industrial scrap management services for businesses big and small.

When you sell your scrap metal at home or at work, you profit, our communities' benefit, and the environment's protected from more unnecessary landfill. We pay cash for household nonferrous metal (like aluminum, copper, brass, wire) and ferrous metal (metal that sticks to a magnet: iron, steel, autos).

We provide scrap-generating businesses a cost-effective way to market recyclable resources.

Absolutely the best in KC. They are always polite and professional. They have the cleanest yard and plenty of staff that are friendly and available for any questions. The prices are fair even with the small quantities we bring in. They follow COVID-19 safety recommendations so wear your mask. They ask you have it presorted before you get there and I like that it keeps down on lines developing like other places in KC.

I've been tryn to find a scrap yard in town with good prices, they seem to be the same with other local yards. The only prob is they realy need to clean up, i go 2 screws in my tire. But the staff is good and they don't yell at you like some other yards iv been to.

They're a good place for all your scrapping needs. Lots of people always in line to do recycling, so there's that they all come back and glad to have a recycling station that pays as good as anybody, and convenient.

I have been selling metal to them for over 6 years. And at least several times a week at that. Used to be my go-to place. Was a five-star rating. But every time I go lately it gets worse and worse and today just pushed me over the edge. I didn't even have that much aluminum to sell and it was 11:49 on a Saturday and they said no they would not buy it even though they don't close till noon. My one-year-old needs formula or milk or something and now I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to do other than borrow money which is not even cool. I don't know if I will ever go back to their non-ferrous

They are pretty nice people to do business with. They are not handicapped accessible. so you will have to have somebody walk up into the trailer so you can be paid for your materials. That you take in. Otherwise it's a great experience.
