This is a small yet simple yard that is quick to get in and out of. If you go here and feel it doesnt pay enough your correct. But dont hold it against the folks working here. The problem is that the same greedy "businessman" bought out all the scrap yards in the city of lubbock and therefore can pay you 5% of what hes gonna get paid. If you call any yard in lubbock the prices are all the same. But if you call south like say dallas they are paying 75% or more than every yard owned by this real life Monopoly clown. If you want more money you are better off saving up a large trailer load over a few

The lowest I’ve been paid yet $63 dollars on what I usually get $120 for. We take the same weight out of every store we remodel.

A 1 Recycling LP pays the least per pound compared to other recycling businesses.. Should have checked first ☹

No see here's what happened. Your guy behind the counter enter my 28lbs of copper into the payout spot and thought I wouldn't notice I have the check right here. I brought in 2 five gal buckets. 1 of #1 and 1 of #2. The guy behind the counter made a "clerical error" and he knows it. Who would bother separating $0.28 of "refinery copper" from $20 of #2? Listen just pay me for the 28lbs of #1 and I can go on my way minus the $$.28 of course.

Quick and easy. I weighed in and dropped of my load. Re weighed and collected my funds within minutes. This is probably not the norm but the experience was very pleasant .

No matter how much I bring I always just get a dollar. You'd make more selling the stuff at a flea market or online. These people rip you off Like crazy.

Very nice and helpful people. They took time to explain different ways to make more money recycling. Very helpful. Will be only place I go from now on.

It may be true that they don’t pay as much as Jarvis, but they also don’t destroy your pickup bed using a tractor Trying to unload your materials. I would rather support this business than some of the other guys. One thing I really like about this place is that you can also buy scrap materials from them at a reasonable price. They have always been friendly and that matters more to me than the weight they pay per pound.

All the local branches are owned by Jarvis! The main branch (south of town) pays far more for some reason. Fool me once-shame on you. The sign says top prices paid, website too... sorry not true. I got paid significantly less per pound at A1. OUCH!!! I will be heading to the main branch from now on.
