We were next, and the friendly woman directing activities showed my husband where to put our TV. It was so easy. Masks were worn by the employees we saw. Husband wore one, too, when he got out of the car to put the burned out flat screen TV on the table. No charge for this service, but Husband did provide our zip code, as requested. Usually we wait for electronic recycling in our area (most times it is at Countryside HS), but with COVID-19, we needed a trip to the city! Lots of construction going on.

I've never been there before and the guy was kind of on the rude side. I was just looking to drop off some cardboard and I felt like I had to bow down, genuflect, and kiss his sandals or his butt. He told me, I had to go to Gibsonton. Cause my tax bill didnt say something or other???After he looked at my tax bill & I just said well I'm an old guy I haven't been here very long, I don't know what's going on. Then I played the one card that I had. I go , I'm kind of old and stupid you know? He looked up at me and just said oh that's fine. Well, I will give you a courtesy drop off since you are only dumping cardboard and you don't have much. I'm like gee thanks. But it was not clear where I was supposed to dump my stuff and it looks like you have to drive down the ramp and go down below. But, guy number two is nice he told me : no you have to be up top for safety and the whole thing was confusing and now I see why people pay somebody else to take their Junk to the dump. I got it done, but not worth it. The sad thing is : I have something else to drop later in the future, but it's one big heavy item and I imagine if I brought that along with my cardboard he would fight me , so I'm probably gonna have to pay somebody else to take it or go all the way to Gibsonton and I'm on the extreme south end of Hillsborough County. Ugh!

I took some steel in to have it recycled on Friday April 3, 2026 and forgot I had four catalytic…read moreconverters in the stack. There were two jeep and two MGB - I have all the paperwork to prove ownership. I called early the next business day (Monday April 6, 2026) and they claimed complete ignorance. Knowing the rules for recycling catalytic converters, I know they would've been flagged and easily traced back to me as my driver's license was required at check in. This was a huge monetary loss and I know it was my fault (they require all customers to separate their items before they are weighed to ensure accurate pricing), but I was very disappointed in how it was handled.

I was going to this place for the last couple of years after I was done unloading my steel I drove…read morethrough an area where I wasn't supposed to because there was nobody directing me where to go so after I drove through that area, I got screamed and yelled at one of their employees started to get in my face and I asked him nicely. Hey, please don't scream at me. I had other stuff that needed to be cashed in like my wire and batteries so I told them how I felt. They decided to refuse service. They shouldn't have yelled at me if they don't like their job or if they're dope sick and they don't have money that's their problem.! if they don't like their job, they shouldn't be working. This is not the first time they need to learn how to interact with other people instead of screaming and yelling at them and belittle in them. I know Randy is a very nice guy, but it's who he has working for him. I'm very disappointed in this. I end up leaving without getting paid for my steal because I was so disgusted. They could've handled it much better and so can I you don't yell and scream at people they said they tried to get my attention, but I did not hear them, but they need to have people directing where to go. It doesn't matter if I've been there before and treat people much better. I'm so disgusted about this. Makes me not wanna run a scrap business specially if I have to deal with behavior like this! After they yelled and screamed at me, that's when I cursed at them because I need to stand up for myself if they would've had people directing people where to go I probably wouldn't have made that mistake, but they were the ones who started screaming at me first! Whether who's right or who wrong you don't yell and scream at somebody ! I'm sorry for my part but they shouldn't have yelled and screamed at me and things would've been much better. If you guys would've been directing people that's all that's all I gotta say. That's why I left without getting paid for my steel and Plus. She refused services. ! I'm a business owner too, and I would never yell and scream at somebody like that right or wrong nothing's gonna changed on what happened today!

But that sun beaten red beast at the mechanics shop with 400ci two barrel carburator had to be mine, so the jobs didn't matter. One day it was mine and I hot rodded around with my buddies, cranking Metal and going to the junkyards when stuff failed under the hood with screwdriver and vice grips in hand. My friend who's 6 foot 6 had a little yellow VW Rabbit with a piece of rotten sausage stuck to the side, it was a big piece and appeared snake-ish on his wheel well. He wanted to sell it as it was trashed so we went to the junkyard to scrap it. The sausage stuck when I threw it at the little electric banana two seater as we were drinking and grilling in the Adirondack Mountains, he decided to keep it on to see how long it would stick. At the junkyard some new guy got into the Rabbit and an older guy took this huge forklift and smashed the tines right through the two windows. The new guy ducked out of the way so fast but he couldn't escape because the older guy lifted the car from below tbe roof up, up and up to probably 20 feet and began shaking it with thr tilting lever. This poor guy was screaming and the old guy was laughing and kept it up for a few minutes before lowering the new guy to safety. This type of mob humor don't happen at Twisted Metal, it's a straight shop with creat phone and counter customer service. My tail light was showing about $120 and up at the autoparts places, AutoZone and O'Reilly and I took it away for $70 with tax included, used but in great condition with linkage and bulbs.
