One of the most organized scrap yard I've been too. They're quick and efficient and there's no issue paying. The staff are VERY good at what they do and they're pretty quick at sorting and getting to the next customer in line. Highly recommend empire recycling for all your steel, copper, brass, aluminum etc.

The drop off and payment was straightforward for this n00b. I got $45 for some of the old wiring in my basement!

Went there for the first time the other day. Was impressed by how helpful and courteous everyone was. I was a little green at sorting out my load and the guys were great and actually helped me not lose out on things I was going to miss! Thanks again ! I will definitely be back!

First glance,place was organized,neat and as clean as I've ever experienced at a recycling yard. Secondly the staff in the unloading area and in the office were most professional. When I discovered Mike White was employed it made a whole lot of sense. See you soon.

I dont do scrap recycling often, but i think i have been to each place in/around Albany. Empire was by far the best experience, the employees were super helpful, and i was in and out very quickly

Great services , i would recomend over all other scrap yards in the area(alot better experiance then Ben whitsmans). No hassle returns, best payouts, friendliest staff you could ask for, usually no to very minimal wait. I plan do continue business with empire recycling for years to come!!!

I come here few times .the guys are really kool. they welcome you well even if you got a few items to scrap. and help you grab the stuff from your truck. no BS. no attitudes. just a grate place to get a few bucks for your recyclables!

Wish I knew about this place sooner. Easy in and out. Guys knew what they were doing and very helpful with a new comer. Plus it’s closer to me than the other places. I know where I’m going from now on

The staff in the yard was incredible. They help you and make you feel welcome. Great place to do business with. Will be there many times in the future.

Been going to Scrap yards through my job and consider the crew atEmpire as my friends.In and out in a heartbeat andThe crew always jumps when you enter their Empire Yard.
