Reviews of American Metals (Scrap Yards)

First, prepare to be ignored. This place couldn't care less about customer service. Second, even if you're bringing in $5 in scrap metal, you're going to get your picture taken, your drivers license scanned, and your finger print scanned. I'd rather give scrap metal to the city to recycle than deal with this place again.

Waited 20 min was a rude ass

The guy working the counter has to be one of the rudest and snarkiest people I have ever met. I pulled up onto the scale and stoped a few feet before the stop sign a guy comes out of the building and without asking opens the trunk of my car and starts taking pictures he then walks over to me and says the reason they have a stop sign is so people will stop at it not a few feet back. Regardless I dropped of the metal and went around again and into the building. A young father with his kids were in front of me the guy behind the counter asked for his drivers license but he forgot it in his truck. The employee or owner was not happy and said “was it that hard to understand me I said bring your F****** I.D in” needles to say I am surprised this place is still in business and I will never be going back.

Very friendly

Vince Davis

Excellent place to sell scrap metal and/or buy new metal products.

Anthony Williamson

Terrible! Tried to give me brass prices for my copper

Jeremy Hobson

Very rude to us when we brought or mixed metal in. Gave us no where near fair price for any of it. They have you once you unload. Customer service does not matter to them. I would throw my metal in the garbage before i would deal with this guy again.

...Like others have said ..... The little guy working the counter is the rudest ever ... He will scrap your metal first ... before you collect payment he will copy yours drivers license, photograph you, and take your finger prints... he tries to intimidate you and get you to leave without having to pay you.... no other scrap yard does this.......so I took his picture and he didn't like that...

Lowest prices for metal recycling I've seen

Bob Sakas

I brought in two types of insulated copper wire for recycling. Crew members were helpful and efficient. This company takes all metals including old car/truck batteries.

Ken Talarico

The guy behind the counter was rude from the beginning. Left after weighing in after another rude interaction on the scale. Took 250 pounds of 6061 aluminum to the dump rather than let this jerk make a penny from it.

Cory Walton

Easy to drop off, guy was friendly, had only short wait, prices they give are comparable to other scrap dealers, not sure why all the other negative reviews

Jason Wells

Called 5 minutes prior to visit. I was quoted a price, made my decision based on that price because it was a large order. Showed up and unloaded over 700 lbs. of metal and was shorted $.20 per pound. Watch Out. Business missing integrity.
