Night and Day difference a between this location and the San Leandro Location. Everyone is friendly, most people can speak English, great organization within their yard, very little wait times.

Very convenient location right off the freeway. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and always ready to provide assistance and answer any questions. Plus, their rates are the best I've found in the Bay Area, which keeps me coming back. If you're looking for a reliable place for recycling, this is definitely the go-to spot!

One of the best metal recycling facilities. Very structured, buy and sell metals. Located right off hwy 37. Great customer service, saved me time and money from going to oakland. There rates are near the same as going directly to the oakland port recyclers

Much better environment since their building burned down and was rebuilt. You do have to watch them as they sometimes like to weigh your sales product and "forget" to include it in your payout. Of course that only works when you have multiple types of nob ferrous metals you are selling.

I don't understand why you can't get anyone to stick to there program. Web site closing time 4:30, in the gate at 4,:10. You don't turn away a customer telling me I was at the wrong web site. Anyway I will never be bringing my recycle here again. Not honest in my opinion..

They close 15 minutes prior to the advertised hours. Called ahead for an order showed up 15 minutes before closing they, told us no one gave the order to them and they are closed for the day can’t pull anything for you guys.

Employees are very disrespectful and unprofessional. You should see them driving the company trucks, idiots flipped over a trailer in the parking lot because they don't seem to have any professional licensed truck drivers or they just stupid.. Once I get it on camera I will be posting here and reporting.

I would have never imagined writing a great review for a recycling business, but this team of employees have been outstanding! Jay, Miguel, Luis, and Cynthia are the top four employees that have shown me just how a company can truly shine! Thank you for striving to do as much as possible to help me every time I come there!

I called in advance to get a price quote for my material that I was recycling, the woman quoted me $160-$170 a ton. I told her exactly what I had which was gondola shelving and racking approximately 5000 lbs give or take. I telephoned again when I got there to confirm quoted price, again the woman confirmed $160-$170 a ton. We unloaded my materials and weighed out, went in to get paid and a different gal says $120 a ton. After going back and forth I reluctantly had no choice but to agree beings I already unloaded to $120 a ton. They owe me around $60.00 and I want my money. The original woman I spoke to Karrie never even came down to look at my load or to handle any disagreement in the office. Very bad business. Never ever will I go there and I will post reviews every so often just as a warning to other unsuspecting customers. Karrie is a liar. They don't even deserve 1 star.

Office girl got her wires crossed with incorrect description of metal I brought in. I brought in 20lbs of alum. She put on paper (old sheet), which was iron at .43 a pound. I brought in 20lb. Solid alum., which is more per pound. That's why I say between the handler of metals & girl upstairs paying out, getting their wires crossed on the handling & paying the customer wrong price for the metal he brought in!

Mwaffa Almuraisi

Semi truck radiator 57 pounds , they gave me a paper and said 4 dollars , i bought the new one for 965$, i didn't take the 4 dollars yet and i wont take it until i sue them for ripping people off, aluminum price is at least 47 cents per pound for national aluminum today .. and they said 8 cents per pound, no honesty at all

Please people we wear they got three stooges working in the front worst customer service the stooge that's in charge of cutting the metal was obviously having a bad day because I was there two hours for a lousy 20-footer to get cut finally got tired and went and checked out was the wait and he's sitting there at the salt just holding on to the buttons saying that the machine was broke and that is supervisors are a joke and that he can't get a hold of nobody but then I looked closer and the cut was all the way through he was just sitting there wasting my time so it goes okay well it went through please do yourself a favor don't deal with this clowns

They don’t pay you for scrap recycling unless you have at least 500 lbs, and you don’t know until you unload.

D

DEWEY Vuitton

I spent more time waiting than I did unloading, I wasn't waiting bcuz they were busy but bcuz they were either eating or standing around laughing and playing grabass, I'll never go back, I refused to sell my precious as well bcuz they were to slow to go over my metal.

THE DEMON

great prices for copper at $3.80 per pound but you get that price if you take over 100 lbs i think

M

Michael Descagnia

Worst copper pricing in the bay area. Over 1 dollar per pound cheaper than the oakland scrap yard. They gave me 40 cents/pound for insulated copper.

Scrap Metal staff are NOT interested in assisting customers. Combine that with waiting for payment for 3 days. I'll save the hassle , throw it in the trash.
