Always nice people, if you don't want to wait in a line go in earlier in the day. Not the highest paying if you are looking to get the most out of your scrap. No complaints overall except pay was lower than other places.

Run! Do not load aluminum metal here. You've been warned. For whatever reason dirt and millions of tiny aluminum shavings are within the bundles of aluminum siding. They will not disclose this to you. You will only find out after you are unloaded. By that time your trailer is destroyed with millions of metal particles. Good luck finding anyone to washout your trailer. No Blue Beacon Truck Wash will touch it with a ten foot pole due to safety hazard of metal damaging eyes with high pressure wash.! Even if you are lucky enough to find someone after you have swept and blown it out, you will still have thousands of particles left behind after a washout. You probably will never be able to haul any food product again. Numerous complaints yet they do nothing to solve this major issue. I left a message for plant manager and calling corporate next. Calling better business bureau as well. This hazard was not disclosed prior to loading. May retain my lawyer to recoup any financial losses as well as the anguish and distress over the clean up, worrying about future load rejections, and income loss. They DESTROYED MY TRAILER WITH THESE MILLIONS OF TINY METAL SHAVINGS! RUN! RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I would rather deadhead 300 miles than take a load from here. It's not worth any amount per mile aside from if they would buy you a new trailer. Zero stars!

I used to supplement my income with scrap for years, but haven't done much scrapping in the last 5 or so.
I took up metallurgy and saved lots of non ferrous metals to melt and cast, and realized how much my stockpile had grown… That and the loads of computers my son fixes, he has loads of parts.
Wife needed me to clear some garage space so I decided to pay Alter a visit.
Same guys at the non ferrous scale that were there years ago, still just as friendly.
They explained why they graded things where they did, I learned something and walked out with some extra cash.
People up front were friendly, no complaints.
Thanks Alter.

Mistakenly gave this business a review on accident and because of this I'm writing three stars because I do not want to hurt this business one way or the other and I could not remove my star rating. My apologies.
