Copper wasn't all the way clean. Yet they still helped with cleaning and were patient. 5stars

It's a place that takes copper iron, old junk cars, aluminum, any kind of motors, brass.. way to make a few bucks.

Could be a lot faster and I'm always unloading my truck myself. O and Louisiana scrap pays almost double than them

I read reviews, before I went. Saw a bunch saying "Friendly and professional". Saw a bunch that said "Rude". Gave it a shot. Sure enough, rude as hell. I left with my load.

Great place to bring your scrap metal or cars or whatever they basically do all of the work for you you just pull up on the scale get weighed and then pull to the back and a big magnet gets it all off of your trailer for you don't even have to get out I highly recommend this scrap yard.

I just found the check I misplaced and it says void after 30 days. I asked them to issue me another check, because the check was never cashed and was voided. So I was never paid for the scrap. They will not issue another check and said I'm just screwed.

Why would you give checks on a bank that is not local? Most folks can’t afford to PAY to cash their check as MOST are selling cans, why, because they’re broke. Bad business. I’ll go to port Allen next time.
