Winchester Scrap Metal
Winchester, Virginia

Called dude and he picked up the car the same day. Gave me a fair price. Very pleasant to talk to

Used to be a great place to dispose of metals. Now they are not open on Saturday. At least that what the lady at the window said. But yet they had multiple tractor trailers rolling in and unloading. Waste of time and effort. Giant joke. Wouldn’t recommend and wouldn’t go. In response to the owner. You people are just like everybody else in the area. You sold out to an out of town group. And sold local residents down the river. There were trucks there dumping. Two pieces of equipment running and a woman working the desk. So you had 3 employees working and were allowing out of state tractor trailers to dump metals. But a local resident. No way. You gotta find time to get away from your job in the middle of the week because we don’t care about you. I’ll never use you guys again and I hope nobody in the area does either. It won’t matter since all your money is out of the area now so you won’t go out of business.

Great place for used parts, have been going there for years and service is still above average

Will be bringing my steel here from now on. They paid better for steel than the other yards I’ve been going to. Staff was also a lot friendlier than I have encountered at other yards. I also was able to unload and get paid quick compared to other yards, especially when coming 30min before closing.

Had 42 pounds of #1 copper, guy said I had #2, it was clean copper wire ranging from #12 to #8 , DO NOT GO HERE , RIPOFF. #1 insulated copper wire consists of wire or cable that is clean, unalloyed, uncoated or untinned. It needs to be plastic insulated, or a gauge thickness of 16 or larger, all ends being cut off, insulation does not need to be stripped. #2 Insulated Copper Wire This category consists of unalloyed copper wire with a gauge thinner than 16. This includes heavy, double or plastic insulation. Wirings from electronics, extension cords, and other gadgets are acceptable. Number 2 insulated wires usually have tin and nickel coatings.

Most recycling places that I've been to in Harrisburg they have the rudest people I ever met but this recycling place Ravens the people were extremely nice and extremely friendly I would drive a hundred miles out of my way to use this place and I recommend that anybody that reads this should do the same you would be very impressed with the employees and how nice they are thank you Jim Grant

Go somewhere else if you want true value for your metals. If copper even has a slightest green color to it, they say its #2. Wire any size that has been stripped of all plastic and coverings you get nothing for. That should also be #1 copper. there scale is 14 lbs off and they weigh your metal in portions so you will lose 14lbs every time. If your copper does not look new then it is #2 to them. My father has owned a scrap yard in Tennessee my entire life, I've been around this business for over 40 years now. I should have gotten $1185.80 for my metal and only walked out with $700.. I took the time to cut it up and separate everything precisely. I guess they are used to people coming in looking for a quick 20 bucks that pay no attention. But if you have hundreds of pounds of copper i would highly recommend you going elsewhere.
