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.

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!

Due to COVID, the city of Phoenix was not offering recycling drop off events so I found this company through an internet search. They take nearly all types of electronics: computers, monitors, radios, DVD players, motors, rechargeable batteries and backup drives, printer cartridges, old power cords, etc. and all for free, but with a small charge for printers, scanners and CRT monitors. I had a scanner/printer that I no longer wanted and that was $5, my monitors, tablets, power cords, were all taken off my hands for free. They also wipe your hard drives. The drop off process was easy, sign a short form in the front office with your contact info and what you are dropping off, pay a fee if needed, then drive around the back and an associate unloads your trunk. They do not have pick up for individuals but do have corporate pickup services. The staff were very friendly and pleasant.

Quick form to fill out at the front desk, then drive around to the back and they've got a guy to take it from your car. Like I said, nice and easy!
