Mission Recycling

This place is a rip off I am sad to say that they are in pomona. Pomona need to kick this leach company out of there town.

Love to dump my steel here. Easy in easy out

Check your weights before you go. You will be surprised in the difference in weights. Rip offs

Karla Gonzalez is a c***, that’s all I have to say about that. She treated me as a degenerate fool when all actuality she’s the one working at a recycling pay station. The entire place is outdated, smells, and is one of the reasons pomona has the reputation it does.

do not go there. I used them to recycle our materials. and for about 6 months now I haven’t received payment and instead I get a bill on a monthly that I didn’t know about until my receptionist asked me about it. I spoke to a portly woman on the phone by the name of Tina (a mouth breather obviously) and she said they have a charge for pickups and that I don’t recycle enough to get a rebate. WTF I send you over 20 tons a month. Thanks for ripping me off your bin is in the street and I now use a different recycler…

They price ferrous metals way below market rate, yet scrap steel prices are near an all-​time high. Most yards give around $ 250 to $ 270 per ton for pure metals. The system here is very arbitrary, but it gives users the lowest price. Two times now I’ve come, waited through the scales and then been given a price at $ 150 per ton. They’ve got manual laborers walking around just spewing out numbers that make them look good to the big boss. It’s over 44 percent less than market. Wow!
The yard is compact but also a fairly large facility that takes all kinds of recycling, from aluminum cans to cardboard to scrap steel. You basically start by waiting in line to get a tare weight from the office in front of the facility. Then you drive in back where you offload the materials yourself. There is a giant bulldozer and backhoe working around you. The stack of steel is 25 feet high. It’s noisy and smelly.
This place also closes precisely at its closing hours, even if you have been there waiting in line. Irritatingly, if you go in with different types of scrap metals, they won’t do them all in one round, which would be easy using the copper and aluminum scales. No, they make you re-​tare (and re-​wait in line) and go through three times. If you just happened to get there around closing time, they lock you out before you can get through and offload the other metals.
The scrap yard at Milliken and Mission in Ontario gives far better prices. Also, there are better prices at the scrap yards in the industrial district in downtown L.A. off Alameda or Washington.
