The team over here is absolutely phenomenal. Steve helped me out. Was very communicative and flexible as my busy schedule would alter. They unloaded my copper and made the whole process very easy. I cannot recommend recycling your copper here highly enough. They've also got on-site processing payout. Can be a little bit bigger talking to Steve. If you're an electrical contractor, I'd recommend coming here.
