I never imagined a company in this industry could be so professional, clean and customer focused than these guys. They're very competitive in paying top dollar for my recyclables. I also discovered they now recycle and pay for clothing, which is odd. Reviewing the company's website it's my understanding they recycle paper, cardboard and clothing to make insulation... all transformed under one roof. How refreshing to see my old newspapers converted into a sustainable eco-friendly. The bonus... Each time I visit there's always a departing gift of a complimentary bottle of ice-cold water, a welcomed gesture of appreciation on extreme triple-digit days.

I called ahead before coming in because I had 14 catalytic converters from AMA road racing bikes…read morethat I was planning to scrap. I specifically asked what documentation would be required. I was told to bring proof of replacement parts purchased and that everything would be handled in the office. Based on that information, I drove to the location. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. Instead of handling the transaction as discussed, I was immediately accused of stealing the converters and told I needed receipts for the aftermarket parts installed on the bikes. I showed proof of purchase on my phone and explained that I had been told I could email the receipts once I arrived. At that point I was told that emailing them was not acceptable and that I needed to go print them out myself, and that a police report might be filed. Wanting to resolve the situation properly, I left, drove to UPS, paid to print the receipts, and returned to the store. When I came back with the printed receipts -- exactly what I had been told to do -- I was then told the receipts were "no good" and they still could not accept the converters. At that point it became clear that my time meant nothing. This entire process resulted in a waste of my time, gas, money, and my team's time, and the way the situation was handled felt unnecessarily degrading. Businesses should operate with clear and consistent communication. If customers are told what documentation is required and go out of their way to provide it, the requirements should not suddenly change. Because of this experience, I will be advising others in the motorcycle community to avoid this location. I'm involved with riders and instructors through organizations like Motorcycle Safety Foundation and AMA racing circles, and I will absolutely be warning people to stay away from this business and any location operating under this brand. I hope management sees this review and looks into how customers are being treated here. This situation could have been handled much more professionally.
