Smart Recycling, Inc. - A Los Angeles Scrap Metal Recycling Company at 414 W C St, Wilmington, CA 90744

Got a big recycling job in Oceanside and called Sal to figure out the best way to handle it. He didn’t just give me a quick answer—he walked me through the whole process, explained how to get the most value for what I was bringing in, and kept checking in until it was time to pick up. When the day came, he sent his son to do the job, and honestly? The guy was a pro. Not only did he show up on time, but he operated my forklift like he’d been doing it for years—smooth, careful, and got the job done right. No stress, no mess. If I’ve got another recycling project, Sal’s the first person I’m calling. No question. ---

Needed help finding a salvage yard near the Inland Empire and gave Sal a call. Instead of just pointing me to the nearest place, he actually took the time to break down the differences between all the yards in SoCal—what they specialize in, who’s reliable, who’s not. Didn’t rush me off the phone either; he made sure I had all the info I needed to pick the right one. Saved me a lot of hassle. Five stars, easy. ---

We build commercial truck bodies in Corona, so we’re always dealing with scrap metal—lots of it. Smart Recycling has been our go-to for years, and Sal and his team never let us down. They show up when they say they will, the pricing is fair, and the receipts come through fast. Before them, we worked with other scrap companies, but none of them matched this level of service. If you’re in the market for reliable recycling, these guys are the ones to call. ---

Tried a few other metal recyclers before, and let’s just say it was hit or miss. Then we found Smart Recycling, and honestly? Haven’t looked back since. They’re quick, they’re professional, and Sal Russo—he’s always on top of things. If we’ve got a question or need something handled, he’s right there. At this point, we don’t even bother with anyone else. Five stars, no hesitation. ---

Needed a roll-off bin for a remodeling job, and Smart Recycling had it at my place by 8 AM—no waiting, no excuses. Picked it up that same afternoon, too. Other companies I’ve used? Half the time, they’re late, and suddenly my dumpster’s full of everyone else’s trash because they didn’t show up when they said they would. Not with these guys. Fast, reliable, and no headaches. I’ll be calling them for every job from now on.
