Testimonials
Benicio Rosado
Pretty good, certainly the best locally. Friendly people for the trade, considering they are often in a rush with customers in and out. The only improvement I could ask for is more transparency with the scales but they have been fair each time I've gone for the last decade. I also haven't gotten any lodged debris in my tires which should count for something.

This place was easy to get to.
Great people. Will be using them again 100%

Friendly people. Easy system. Just weigh in and weigh out. However for the cheap metal it's no way to make a living. Got 1.5 cents per pound. From now on we'll be taking my home generated scrap metal to the transfer station and let the town make the money.

Every time I walk away happy. Good honest people offering fair prices. I am not a frequent scrapper, I just collect old unusable brass and copper trash slowly from my job and these folks will turn it into cash in my pocket.

Great people and great place. Been bringing scrap metal here for years and it has always been easy and fast! Drive up on the scale, get weighted, drive around back, dump it, drive up on scale again, move off scale to park, go in and collect your cash. yes CASH! Easy to get too and easy to find. The owner and staff are very nice people and very friendly. It isn't often that you find a scrap yard that is this helpful.
Try Winthrop Steel Company when you got metal to get rid of, you and your wife will be glad you did.
