“Quick and easy to deal with. Plus, they’re helpful and friendly and have good pay rates for scrap metal.”
“Takes pretty much everything made of metal, I believe. This site appeals to the inner child in me. I was there while they were smashing chunks of metal and things. It was entertaining to watch.”

“The boys at the scrap yard were really fast and nice, and they got me sorted in 15 minutes. I had a trailer full of scrap. So, I encourage you to try them out.”
“Good, honest trader; staff are helpful and kind. I’ve had bad experiences in Tauranga with other scrap metal dealers who wait until you unload before telling you they’re not paying you, or who mislead you into bringing in your scrap metal and then downgrade the rates with flimsy excuses, even though they could have told you right away after seeing your scrap. I now always use Metalco, even though they are further away, and drop off items in their drop-off bin when I don’t have a full load. Such decent enterprises deserve all of our support.”

“Good service. I’ve been using Metalman for a long time and have never had an issue. Unfortunately, Henry has passed away, but the new man is ready for the task. Cheers.”
