Springfield Iron & Metal Co

We went here because it's the only place in Springfield that recycles microwave ovens. A bit hard to find; the sign could be larger. But the man who greeted me was friendly, and he removed the microwave from our vehicle and took it away. Time spent: 5 minutes. Can't beat that!

Love this place! Super friendly staff. Very fair rates. The yard guys are very helpful and honest about grading your material.

Employees are awsome the owners rich n rick are the best i wouldnt go anywhere else ever been along time customer and satified everytime its always been a pleasure doing business at both locations

Friendly and fair prices!

That lady with the aluminum doesn't understand what clean is apparently. From Waukegan and have heard and seen it all. Good place, fair prices and good people.

Good place to go but the lady that runs it is very slow

It would be nice if these guys would clean up their scraps out of the middle of the road from their junk yard. I live on the same road and HAVE to drive past this company to get anywhere, but i’m constantly getting stuff stuck in my tires (bolts, nails, metal, etc.) because you guys are simply inconsiderate of others and don’t care because it’s not your car. If you could please pick your stuff up out of the middle of road where people drive on everyday, that would be so helpful and would save people a lot of money :) - thank you, literally anyone that drives down this road.

BEWARE OF DECEPTION. Be careful of selling your aluminum to Springfield Iron and Metals: I called twice to confirm the price of my aluminum soffit fascia and gutters. She asked if it was clean...it was clean, aside from the chalking that old aluminum gives off. She quoted $0.30 per pound, $0.08 if it’s dirty. I made sure it was clean!! After I unloaded all of it from the trailer and reweighed my vehicle, she called a guy to the desk who reported it was dirty. Wait...what?! She explained (then) that dirty means that it has non-aluminum screws in it and she would only pay me $0.08/pound because they would have to “clean it”. She said I should have asked and I could load it back up and take it with me. I did ask! She should have informed me when I called and told her what I had to recycle. They are in the business of ripping people off via omission of important details. $11.20 is all they paid me for a trailer full of 140 pounds of aluminum. I expected $42. BEWARE OF DECEPTION.
