Walked in and asked the guy behind the counter for help—he just shrugged and told me to grab it myself. Newlons is way better, hands down. This kid didn’t even bother moving from his spot, just kept chatting with his buddies like I wasn’t standing right there. ---

Shoutout to the crew at Paul’s Auto Yard—you guys make scrapping feel less like a chore and more like a win. When life’s kicking you around, they’re the ones who’ll listen, lend a hand, or just crack a joke to lighten the mood. I don’t say this lightly: if you’re looking for a place to unload, this is the spot. ---

I’m at Paul’s Salvage so often it’s basically my second home. Kristina Jackson and the other woman who works there? Always friendly, always ready to jump in and help. You can tell they actually care about making sure customers leave happy. ---

After checking six different yards, Paul’s in Kokomo still has the best deals on used radiators. The staff doesn’t just take your metal—they actually explain things while you unload, which is more than I can say for most places. Prices beat the big chains, and they’re even better than the other Paul’s Auto Yard near me in Rochester. I drive all the way from Edinburgh just to drop off my aluminum extrusion and clean scrap because no one else handles it right. Oh, and I should add—living near a "Paul’s Auto Yard" in my city? Doesn’t matter. I skip it every time. The Kokomo location runs smoother, the transactions are clean, and I’ve never had a single issue. No hassle, no excuses. ---

No fluff, no runaround—just straightforward service. They size up what you’ve got, cut you a fair check, and you’re out the door. Finally took recycling seriously after visiting this place. If you live nearby, it’s a no-brainer. One thing to note: if you’re coming from far away, make sure whatever you’re bringing is worth the gas money. Otherwise, it’s not worth the trip.
