Tyler’s the real deal—drove me around like he actually cared, not just going through the motions. And the prices? Way better than anywhere else I checked. Saved me a solid chunk of cash without feeling ripped off. ---

Okay, first time here was a little confusing—had to weigh my load at the landfill scales, then dump it near those two massive excavators, then weigh again for the ticket. After that, it’s a shuffle over to the green hut where they’re always moving scrap cans around. Hand over your ticket and ID, and boom, you’re walking out with cash instead of writing a check. Prices change with the market, but honestly? They’re doing all the heavy lifting, so I’m not gonna gripe about the rates. Better than nothing, right? ---

Small, family-run spot, and it shows—everyone there actually knows what they’re doing. Prices are fair, they bend over backward to help, and the whole operation runs smoother than most places twice their size. If you’re in southern Colorado and need salvage, this is the place to go. ---

We took two loads of aluminum there, and now we’re done. The woman working acted like we were wasting her time, and on top of that, they offered us *nothing* for the scrap. Between the gas, the time, and the hassle, we lost money just showing up. If this is how they treat people, I wouldn’t call them a real recycling place. ---

Called to ask if they’d take a car, and by the end of the conversation, the guy on the phone called me an idiot. Meanwhile, I could hear him yelling at someone else in the background like I wasn’t even there. Real professional move, buddy.
