Came here twice now, and every time the people working here are just really nice. Not that fake "how can I help you" stuff—just genuinely good folks. ---

Went back to this place again, and like always, the staff is super friendly. Alaina at the scale even walked out to take a picture of my stuff and reminded me to pop the hatch. The guys out in the yard were just as good—no nonsense, just helpful. ---

We keep coming back to Harmon Scrap Metal because they’re the best in Athens—maybe even all of North Alabama. The place is always clean, which is a huge plus, and the people there actually care. They don’t just take your scrap; they make you feel like you’re doing business with friends. I tell everyone I know to go there. ---

The people here don’t just do their job—they actually seem happy to help. No eye-rolling, no attitude, just straight-up good service. Anthony, Josh, and Carolina have been great every time I’ve stopped by. The whole place is clean and easy to work with, which makes a big difference. ---

Anthony took the time to walk me through how everything works and even showed me around. The whole crew is organized, but more than that, they’re just kind. No pushy sales talk, no rushing you out—just solid, friendly service. I don’t say that lightly; this is the real deal.
