Getting rid of some stuff, and there was an aluminum stepladder. I called and asked if this would…read morebe treated as aluminum, since 99% of it is aluminum. I was told yes, it's treated as aluminum, but to hold a minute and they'd check for sure. She came back and said yes, she'd checked and it was treated that way. When I got there, I was told that it would be "dirty" aluminum, since there was a piece of plastic at the very top of the ladder, which was bolted on. As a result, it was worth 15 cents/lb rather than 50 cents/lb. Had I been told that when I called, I would have spent 5 minutes unbolting the plastic. As it was, I got almost enough out of it to pay for the gas to get it there. So, just be aware that even if you call with a specific question about a specific item and get an answer, you might get a different answer when you actually get there.

I've…read morebeen visiting their new address at 1112 W Birchwood Ave, Mesa, AZ 85210 and I can honestly say -- this is the best place to recycle metal. They are honest, quick, and they offer better prices than other recycling centers in the area. https://recyclersmesa.com/ Their updated phone number is 480-361-1863, and the team there is always friendly and helpful. If you're looking to get more value for your scrap metal, I highly recommend coming here. Don't go to the old address -- come straight to the new one! rivasangeñito@yahoo.com

If you have steel, drive up on the scale, wait for the light to change, drive around, unload everything, drive back up onto the scale, wait for the light again, then pull all the way back around to the trailer. They'll meet you outside and coordinate payment! If you have brass, copper, etc, pull up to the ramada (right before the vehicle scale) and someone will be there to weigh what you have on a smaller scale. Then go to the trailer, coordinate payment. They are quick, simple, and always give a great value. One or two of the employees might come off a little rough. But they work in the Arizona heat. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt!

She said it's because there is less competition in Chandler, so essentially they cheat and take advantage of their Chandler neighbors and community. She gave me a sassy take it or leave it attitude. I told her now that I know their business practice in Chandler, I will be careful and go elsewhere next time.

I never imagined a company in this industry could be so professional, clean and customer focused than these guys. They're very competitive in paying top dollar for my recyclables. I also discovered they now recycle and pay for clothing, which is odd. Reviewing the company's website it's my understanding they recycle paper, cardboard and clothing to make insulation... all transformed under one roof. How refreshing to see my old newspapers converted into a sustainable eco-friendly. The bonus... Each time I visit there's always a departing gift of a complimentary bottle of ice-cold water, a welcomed gesture of appreciation on extreme triple-digit days.
