Heavy Metal Scrap & Recycling Inc.

This family establishment has always taken great care of me. The prices are fair. And I think it better than going to the grocery store parking lot places. Those places change their prices too much. And typically those places only have ONE person working there. This place has a great team of people.

The people here are all very nice and -mellow-, no stress! This includes the cashier, the young man who took my bottles & cans, & the man working the forklift in the yard. The forklift operator accepted scrap metal that another recycling co. said was too small of an amount for them to accept. I like this place! And they are open longer hours than some other recycling places.

Simple, fast and clean with fair prices. Staff is helpful and no shifty behavior like the place down on Diaz. They buy all sorts of materials besides just cans and bottles. Plus a candy with every visit. Just like an old fashioned dentist but without the pain!

I absolutely love this location! The office staff and workers are very helpful and willing to show you, on the spot, how to properly recycle different grades. I love that because not all states recycle, I came from one that didn’t. I appreciate the extra effort!

It's alright. Make sure you have caps off of your water bottles. Spent half my time going through and taking caps off. They seemed a little bit cold and bitter, but it didn't make me want to run away and never come back. It is our only option now, so we really have no other choice.

I'm an electrical contractor who has been using SA recycling for the past couple years. The prices have been industry low there for a while now. So I tried here and have to say I will 100% be returning. GOOD pricing and nice workers. Thanks Matt. -Thomas Electrical Contracting-TEC

This place has an amazing staff. I went to go recycle some cans. At the counter where I received my 40 somthing bucks for my cans I set my wallet down and a brand new pair of samsung buds in there charger [ $150 headphones ]. Then I promptly left without them. I didn't realize this until I was back out my house on the other side of Temecula. I called at like 3:05pm which is after there closing time. They answered which amazed me and told me they found my stuff and would wait around until I got there to pick it up. I will go here every time I have anything to recycle. They earned a customer for life. 👍👍👍

Very courteous and WAAAAAY quicker than the rePlanet recycling centers behind grocery stores. They weighed 5 55-gallon drums worth of my recyclable plastic bottles at the same time which makes the process much quicker. I will never go back to rePlanet. As of July 17 they no longer do regular recycling….

Easy in and out with no fuss. Take your caps off plastics if you're recycling bottles and put them in a separate bag. Glad to have them around to recycle when the grocery store recycle centers aren't.

They are busy, not a lot of parking Space's. They run it professional. And follow the virus protocol. They don't take, aluminum cat food can's. All good.

Liked coming here a lot. In case it hasn't been wide aware, they no longer collect cans. I spoke with Matthew. He said they went to PU service now.

Nails and shrapnel everywhere looking for a tire to picture. Staff was nice but other bystanders were INCREDIBLY rude. Almost not worth bringing in recycling anymore

They make you take the lids off of the plastic bottles. Go to Murrieta instead.
