2022-09-14You have to check in at the office and than get on the scale. There is only one dock across the street where you’ll get loaded very quickly. Nice and professional staff in the office. Looks like there is no overnight parking. Very close to interstate i194 and i94. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

2022-05-31It was a great experience, until the payment process. First I was told that my steel payment was included on my copper check, but it wasnt. So if I hadnt checked my ticket before leaving, I would have been out that money. Then a woman from the office came out and spoke rudely to me when I couldnt get my ticket to scan after multiple swipes. (For the record, those two signs say you DONT NEED TO press the buttons that were apparently just installed for decoration. They dont say anything about how it WONT WORK if theyre used.) On top of that, I also see that they deducted a tare of 7 pounds for a container which has tare weight 1.94 lbs. printed right on it. (My ticket says tare 0 but they entered a gross weight of 31 pounds after the scale clearly read 38.)Oh well, supporting a local place was worth a try. Ill just stick with Schupan.

2022-05-12The folks at Franklin Iron & Metal Co. are some of the best I have ever dealt with. From the knowledgeable staff to the ideal location and layout of their facility they have got my vote for best metal recyclers that I have come across. The non-ferrous recycling process there is very streamlined and their staff are helpful as well as professional without any of the bad attitudes that some of the other yards seem to have. You wont be disappointed if you take your metal to Franklin thats for sure.

2021-11-08If you have not been here before. This is a touch free metal waste. Meaning you load it a super magnet unloads you. Less likely to damage you vehicle driving around a scrap yard. Good layout, be there early for fastest in and out experience. Staff is ready to help if you have a question. All and all 5 stars customer service and easy excess for potential customers.

2019-05-30Excellent customer service. I needed some steel to practice welding on (Im attending KCC for welding - Excellent program they have there) without having to pay for new. The company had an employee assist me in loading up my finds. Came away with over 900 lbs of some really good finds at a fraction of new. I will definitely be going back. The only down side is that they only take cash. But, with the help that I got and the things I was able to find at the price I paid, I cant complain.

2021-06-18A good experience also they pay a higher amount per pound for your scrap. Most places dont seem to pay that fair. so when you want the most value for your scrap its not even an option to go anywhere other than Franklins if you want full price
