No fuss, no waiting—just showed up, got my money, and left. Staff was straightforward and friendly. In and out in under 10 minutes. ---

If you’re just dropping off a couple small parts, skip this place. I spent 10 minutes separating a radiator from its plastic housing and two brake rotors, only to get $8 total. Not worth the hassle. ---

Drove in here last week with that old 400-pound washer from the frat house—finally got rid of that beast. Pulled all the copper out of the motors, sold that separately, and walked away with a solid chunk of change. Ended up around $250 total, which isn’t half bad. (Don’t tell the frat they’ll never notice it’s gone.) Swapped it out for a lighter 100-pound model—way easier to move. ---

Absolute rip-off. They tried to lowball me on red brass, calling it yellow even when I had actual yellow brass right there to compare. Every other place pays $2.25 for yellow, but these guys? $2. And then they shorted me on weight—scale said 117 pounds, but they charged me for 120. Oh, and now they’re hitting me with a "facility fee"? Unbelievable. Stay far away.

Usually a quick stop, but this time there was a new guy working, so it took a little longer. Still not bad—maybe 15 minutes total. No big deal. ---
