Whenever I have junk metal, I like to stop by Tri Star to recycle the metals and get PAID for it…read more Tri Star will take any metal including broken appliances. They also take non-working batteries, copper wires, and other recyclable material. Are you getting any great ideas yet? If you have a truck, haul the junk metal to this place and sell it! I always find broken appliances like refrigerators, washing machine, oven.....etc. around dumpsters. Tri Star always try to honor competitor prices on recyclable metals. This place is a recycling center so it is not the most appealing place. They are friendly people, though.

Their slogan is "Let's be honest," however I think they are everything but…read more I took an assortment of metals today to sell to them, i.e. cans, cast aluminum, brass, miscellaneous wires, and iron. They weighed the cans and they weighed the iron, however they DID NOT weigh the wires, the cast aluminum OR the brass. How did they KNOW how much of those I took in? BY SIGHT!!! WHAT!?!? Immediately I was skeptical when he handed me a payment for my metals I truly felt was low, so I asked for a receipt (since they did not give me one). The ONLY metals on the receipt i was paid for were the cans, the cast aluminum and the iron. My guess is since I had quite a few pounds of each, but not much of the others. When I questioned him about the wires, he said, "You don't have much of those. You're looking at maybe a dollar. I can give you another dollar if you'd like." I told him nevermind as i didnt want to make a scene. But if he was willing to give me a dollar for the wires, why wasn't I paid it initially??? Please believe me when I say this is not about the dollar. This is about honesty which they claim to have. An honest business would have had every item I took in on the receipt. An honest business would have weighed out, individually, every type of metal I took in. They did neither of these my friends. And I'm still wondering how much I should have received for my brass too. In summary, I have absolutely NO TRUST in this business, and I WILL NEVER take my metals to them again. It makes me wonder how many honest people selling their metals to this business have been shorted money they most certainly deserved. Honest people who, more than likely, were selling metals to make ends meet in their lives. Bad form, Tri Star . . . BAD FORM!!!

This is my first time here, we live in this area so this was one of my options from the map. It's…read morewell organized, the guy unloaded my bags of cans in the drive thru area was nice & professional. I was only expecting about $2.00 for the amount of cans I got but it came to $4.50 and I was thrilled! I had been meaning to recycle in order to declutter & it's good for the environment plus a bonus to get a few bucks! :-).... So I proceeded to the front office with my ticket and TDL ( Remember to bring your I.D. & you will have to do the fingerprint deal). The young lady working the window was cool & explained the process. The lobby is SUPER NICE... the aesthetic is perfect for this place of business and I love the friendly yet helpful warning sign posted between the payment machine & the service window... check out my pics below. So I received a payment ticket that you scan over at the machine to get your cash! Cool operation! They also have stickers free to the customers, so help yourself!

Yes, you will receive some cash for your metal (don't expect the proverbial gold mine, though). And you're helping a local business - plus you're reducing the volume of waste that ends up in landfills. Always very friendly staff here. Parking is adequate, since you're really not here for very long - they're very quick to take your metal, weigh it and pay you a set price per pound. Exiting back onto Kuykendahl (especially if you're heading south) can be a challenge, though. Keep that in mind when you're ready to leave.
