F & D Salvage at 17 McCracken Rd, Millbury, MA 01527

No fuss, no delays. Just pull in, get unloaded, and head out. Good folks over there. I don’t go anywhere else.

Walked in with scrap, walked out with more cash than anywhere else. Fast, straightforward, and no nonsense. They’re the best around for quick payouts.

What a waste of time. I brought in a bucket of mixed brass pieces, clearly marked with a "tare three pounds" sticker on the original slip, but when I pointed out they only wanted the yellow brass part, the office guys shrugged and sent me back to the yard. The yard guy flat out told me they only pay for yellow brass no matter what the rest is — polished chrome, red brass, dirty brass, whatever. I went back up and told the man and woman in the office what he said. They just stared at each other like they couldn’t believe what I was hearing. By the time I got back from telling my ride, they’d already rewritten the slip to pay me less, and when I looked closer, it turned out they paid for red brass, not the yellow they originally called for. Seven pounds tare with a ten-pound total. Absolute daylight robbery. If you go there, bring backup because it’s every man for himself.

Helpful people, honest prices, and they make the whole process smooth. No reason to look elsewhere.

I only needed a small chunk of metal for a quick job, but every shop around wanted to sell full sheets or nothing at all. The guy behind the counter didn’t hesitate — he walked out back, cut exactly what I asked for, and charged a fair price. Simple as that. Couldn’t ask for better service.

Been bringing my scrap to this place for at least five years now, maybe even longer. Honestly, the difference between this yard and the others I tried when I first started is like night and day. Some places act like you’re wasting their time just by showing up, but not here. There was this one time I cashed out and got home, only to realize the girl at the counter had mixed up my light and heavy iron by mistake. I lost about $27 because of it. I called her right away to explain, and she didn’t even hesitate—apologized, said it was her fault, and told me to come back anytime to get my money. A whole year (maybe even longer) went by before I had another decent load to bring in, but when I finally did, she didn’t even wait for me to ask. She just handed me an envelope with my name on it and the cash inside. Still can’t believe she held onto it that long. At this point, I’m not going anywhere else as long as they’re open. The staff is always friendly, and the girl in the office? She’s got a way of making you leave in a good mood every time. (And yeah, she’s easy on the eyes too.) If you’re on the fence, just go check it out—you won’t be disappointed. ---

Went there for the first time, and the guy who helped me was a total pro. No hassle, no attitude—just straightforward, good service. That’s all you can ask for.

This place is a lifesaver when you’re short on time. I’ve got a packed schedule, and more often than not, I’m rolling in right as they’re about to close. But they never rush me or act like I’m an inconvenience. They just make it work. If you’re looking for a scrap yard that won’t waste your time, this is the one. ---

Every time I stop by, the guys here treat me right. They’re hard workers, and you can tell they actually care about doing the job properly. No attitude, no shortcuts—just respectful, no-nonsense people. ---

Had to dump a load at that sketchy Greenfield scrap yard yesterday because I wasn’t gonna make it to F&D before they closed. Big mistake. I should’ve just waited until the next day—even if it meant dealing with the hassle of unloading the trailer myself, because I *know* the guys at F&D would’ve helped me out no problem. Instead, I got totally lowballed on 2.25 tons of #1 steel. Same exact material I always bring to F&D and get top dollar for. Don’t even think twice—go to F&D. They’ve got the best prices around, and they’re straight-up honest. No games, no nonsense. ---
