I would definitely look elsewhere. Offered me 1 cent a pound (20 bucks a ton) for clean steel today. I told him no way Jose, drove to Aurora and received $175.00 per ton for my steel. It was definitely worth the trip.

Well ya live and ya learn. Sometimes the convenience of being close isn’t worth being screwed on pricing. 250lbs Of clean aluminum for $25. When if I had driven 25min east I would have gotten between $70-100 for the same truckload.Nice people and good service. But pricing is terrible

Best recycling place in the area!!! Nice, clean place w/ paved blacktop, versus gravel like other places, so I don't have to worry abt getting a flat tire. Everyone here is super nice & helpful. I like that they weigh the metal in front of you so that you can actually see the scale, so I know I'm getting honest weight every time. The Office Manager, Mayra, is super friendly & nice - she always has a smile on her face & always offers me free candy & free gifts (pizza cutter, chip clips, etc) when I bring my scale ticket into the office to get paid. Their prices are great & they're always willing to price match if I'm ever able to find a better price elsewhere. I really like coming here...honest, friendly, good people. Great experience every time. Highly recommend!

They try to steal from average people looking for a fair price...they priced a 120 stainless steel utility cart at a penny a pound because of the casters. All American and S&S we're giving $0.35 in the same condition a fair price for stainless. But unfortunately they weren't open

This is the best place I have been to as far as scrap yard. I have been there 3 separate times with 2 different box trucks (total 8 trips and 30-35 pallets) and they helped unload pallets. They addressed prices before I got there. And notified me of any issues and price adjustment. Keep up the great work. I look forward on working with you on future recycling. :)

Happy too see Saturday hours. Had a ton of wet boxes I had to unload and they took them. They took my zinc (about 1,000 lbs) and gave me a fair price after I asked them to reconsider The initial offer which was a little low. Thank you for taking the time to make some calls and reconsider.

seemed like nice people but got extremely low balled for my copper wire. I deal alot with copper wire, at my repair shop I fill a 2 very large crates and then take it to a scrap yard, typically I get upwards of $400 These guys were close to my store so i thought i would try them out. I got under $90. I understand market value of copper can change but not that much, really feel like i got screwed

Best recycling center in the area. Friendly people work here. The scales face you, so you can see instantly how much your material weighs. The entrance is all blacktopped and clean. Quick service, and I always get a receipt. I even get a free gift every time I go there. Their prices are fair, and are clearly displayed. They have been in business since 1974.

The pricing and staff are a joke. Took 40 minutes to get in and out with 800 lbs of car parts. Steel, aluminum, motors and rotors, ended up getting 20 bucks out of it. I cannot imagine anything except lead bricks being worth the time and effort to bring to this filthy wasp infested "business"

Very helpful and friendly!!! Usually when i go to other scrap yards to take my mixed wire I get paid for mixed wire(much lower price then if seperated), when I came to st charles scrap they took the time and explained to me how to seperate my wire so I could get more money for my material. Have been going there ever since!
