Reviews of Sims Metal - Yorktown, Virginia (Scrap Yards)

Jon Hartway

Very helpful staff. I didn't know what I was doing and they helped me with everything I needed.

chris guimond

Great. Always love cashing in metal i don't need anymore.

Benjamin Hacking

First time scrapper, everyone I interacted with was very helpful. Stuff I brought in wasn't as sorted as it probably should have been and the staff there helped sort it to help me get the best price for what I brought in. Would highly recommend!

Jeremy Johnson

Be careful! If your not familiar with scrap the tall guy who inspected it will try to intimidate and rip you off. Terrible experience both times I went. The Lady that works the counter is “Very Rude” both of the times I went. I definitely won’t be returning.

Daniel Plawski

this is an amazing business and such a big part of the economy so many people who need it rely on it

Anytime we call Sims to check their prices they NEVER answer, instead it will always go to a voicemail of someone who is not even at the local Yorktown office. I can call Public Scrap and Old Dominion in Hampton and ALWAYS have a friendly voice of someone at that specific location answer the phone with prices. If you like to know in advance where to take your scrap depending on prices don't waste your time at Sims you will won't know and show up blinded.

This is not a junkyard. The lady you spoke with on the phone happens to be very nice and has a lot on her plate. No, I don't work there. It's a metal recycling plant, not a junkyard. Although you called in error, she tried to refer you to someone who could help. Yet, you still complain. To anyone who actually has their head on their shoulders: Sims is the place to go with your scrap.

i will not be returning to this establishment. the last encount i had with them the employees were very rud to me and some were even being a** holes to me. so i desided i would only go there if i had to well today they really closed the door on me coming back or even sugesting others to go there. now i know it was sleeting. and i called up there and several other places and they were the only ones open. when i called the guy seid yes were open. but as soon as i pulled in and employee closed the gate and bluntly seid were closed. and what aggravates me is that the guy on the phone could have seid yes were open but we might be closing soon due to the weather and then i wouldnt have wasted my time and gas to go up there. so i will not return to this place. i will stick to going to Carrollton Metals were the employees are nicer and they even help people unload there stuff if there not terribly buisy

Stacy Bevis

Quick and easy. Very polite

Matthew

Great place to dump your junk metal and outside staff seemed pleasant. The lady in the cashier window though... very rude. And you cannot hear her through the window at all with all the noise outside.

Barry Ehrenfried

Nice staff, business helps keep the landfills from being filled with materials that can be recycled and they pay you for your materials you don't need.

Harold Smith

The junk stops here..so bring it!

Craig Stephens

Always treated me with respect i love the staff and management if i don't understand something they show me.

James Muza

I live close by so Sims is convenient and I have to say I'm really impressed with the way that they run the yard the way they keep the place clean I've never had to wait more than 5 or 10 minutes and they're very competitive with the pricing so I must say they definitely get five stars

Chuck Sass

Excellent friendly staff

Mary Poppins

Chris Ruth

Ron Mann

Just a place to sell old metal and pick up few bucks from stuff u would just throw out

Michael Watford

Price are going back up at least

Ronald Wright

Same as always

Kayla Biever

They are very helpful and provide good services for those new to the hobby of collecting and selling metal. I find the staff welcoming and informative. This facility is wonderful.

Steve Guinsler

Uncommonly professional for that type of work. Rough looking guys are polite and professional. They are constantly upping their systems and layout. Go get some money!

djamp42

Had a bunch of scrap that we were going to throwaway. They were so helpful in showing how we could get paid more for our scrap by separating key parts. Staff very frendily. Would recommend to anyone.

Gunny Garrett

Paper check. Wrong name. No help.

Michael Aponte

Horrible customer service call the phone number kept getting off by their machine when I finally did reach someone the guy that answered said oh I could have left a message and he would have called me back fix your machine so that doesn't happen

Barry Kopczynski

Very pitiful I was told I would get eight cent per pound for my container which weighed 8900 pounds and when they went to pay me they deducted 2000 pounds because it has a wood floor they did not tell me that in the quote, but I do not see them subtracting for plastic when you bring in a bunch of junk

Mary Jasper

So helpful & professional, very efficient.
