L & M Northside Recycling at 1801 NE Grantville Rd, Topeka, KS 66608

Honestly, this place saved my project. I was scrambling to find scrap metal for a Boy Scout shooting range build, and they had exactly what I needed—plus they threw in extra at a price that made no sense. Couldn’t have asked for better. ---

If you’re dumping a car or hauling scrap metal, start here. No games, no hassle—just straightforward, fair dealing. I was blown away by how easy it was, and I’ll be back. Five stars, no question. ---

Won’t step foot in there again. Brought in a full load of aluminum cans, weighed it myself, knew exactly how much I had. Dumped it all, went to get paid, and they hit me with some number 30 pounds lighter. Tried to argue, but they wouldn’t even listen. 112 pounds turned into 80—no way. Not worth the headache.

I hit every other junkyard in town—Lewis, A&A, you name it—and either they didn’t have the parts or wanted new-car prices for used junk. One place even quoted me $100 for a bumper, then tried to flip it to $400 when I showed up. Someone finally told me to try L&M, and damn, did they come through. Got everything I needed at a price that didn’t feel like a robbery. Place isn’t fancy, but who cares? It’s where I go now. ---

Look, I’ve been coming here for years, and it’s always the same—good people, no nonsense. The owner even hooks me up with old kids’ bikes sometimes so I can strip them for parts or fix them up for neighbors. Not sure what else to say other than they’re solid. Keep doing what you’re doing. ---
