Review: Awesome place! I actually dropped my money there yesterday and didn’t realize it for about an hour and when I called they had recovered my cash and it was waiting for me this morning. Try that at another scrap yard

Review: Having been in the appliance business for over 25 years, I’ve been to Every Scrap yard from New Jersey to Reading, large yards and small yards, Modern covers all the bases, centrally located.concrete ground that is cleaned off almost hourly, I have had a half of a dozen punctured tires throughout the years from the other dirt, muddy scrap yards. At Modern I just back up almost to the scrap pile and dump my scrap,, they monitor their pile and constantly maintain a clean concrete pad. There is not a yard that pays more for scrap and I get the max amount every time. Usually in and out in 15 minutes . And they don’t boss you around, sometimes the yard man has even helped me unload the very heavy pieces. The dude at the window is friendly, and quick to give me my cash so I can get back to work.

Review: Just went there for the first time after finding out about Ridge Metals being closed and they were awesome. Great customer service and good prices. I’ll definitely be going there for now on especially since it’s hard to find a fair deal in Norristown for scrap metal. I looked up prices online before I went and they beat what I found during my research. Also I’ve been reading some of the comments and I just have to say what kind of person complains about walking a few feet to put stuff in a bin. If they hired more people to do that it would lower what you’d get for your scrap.

Review: They are hit or miss. The first few times they were awesome, however once they got to know me they started under paying me for the material I brought to them. This last time I went to them to drop off a load of copper with a little bit of brass still attached. The man running the scale put it all in as brass. I talked to the head guy behind the counter and he said the guy running the scale maintained it was all brass. I informed them that I get copper mixed with brass from a professional plumber and I can have him come down if they need but they refused. It slowly worked its way up to straight miss labeling the material I bring in, so that was the last time I go there. They wouldn’t even attempt to work with me to fix the issue. I suggest paying really close attention to what they label and how much they say it weighs. Or just avoid this place all together. Modern recycling is not a trust worthy place to conduct business.

Review: Worst experience at a scrap yard ever! I will never go to this place again. Usually get between 80 to 150 for copper and brass valves, heavy duty electric motors, and circuit boards. This place gave me 23 bucks classified as light iron.
