First step arriving on site is pulling up to an "alleyway" with a large scale. Truck and driver would be re-weighed after. Upon queuing up, the back of the truck literally opens up to a large yard of debris while "the claw" picks from the center. Bulldozers enter every other truck to push the debris towards the middle so the claw can pick and dump to a large hopper. Sprinklers are always on at the perimeter and water sprayed to control dust. It's like a video game or a movie but real -the smell and the danger

Allocco recycling is a reputable scrap metal yard. They are very professional in every aspect of…read morethe business. They make selling your scrap metal very easy. I have experienced selling my metal to just about every scrap yard in the boro's and L.I., without a doubt this scrap yard is the most largest, professional and organized scrap yard in the metro area. It's a pleasure to be able to drive in on either 1 of the 2 truck scales without hardly ever a wait. The size and structure of this location makes it very convenient to sell your metal. It's great, because time is money in any business. I don't want to spend half my day at a scrap metal yard , I am not earning when I'm waiting in a line to dump my load of metal. I want to be able to drive in and out in the least amount of time and get on to my next load. They buy ferrous and non ferrous metals and they pay high fair market prices on all metals and most importantly, they are very honest with the weight. They have modern digital scales that display your weight on and off the scale, so you can actually see how much material you had. I would recommend this scrap yard to anyone who is looking for a place that pays (very) fair market prices and an easy experience to off loading your material. This yard is huge, very organized and by far the most friendliest staff of any scrap metal yard i have ever frequented.

Went to drop off a BBQ grill. Place is huge. I waited about 30 minutes (in line with my car)…read more When it was my turn, I was helped by a really nice guy and I was out of there within 10 minutes. At first I thought the guy couldn't make up his mind on where I needed to pull the car over in the lot. I didn't realize I was driving on and off the weigh station. He didn't tell me what was going on so I was a bit confused. However it was a very busy morning and now I know the process . I will definitely go again if I need to drop off heavy scrap metal . I recommended this place.
