It's better not to go there, they're cheating people on both the scales and the price. I was there today and gave aluminum. At first, they said the price would be 45 cents a pound, then they changed their minds and gave the price 30 cents a pound. I unloaded all the aluminum from my car, and when I came to get the money for my metal, they told me that I brought from 200 pound of water, and the total weight was 840 pound. When I said you were laughing at me before they gave me $195 in cash and said come here. This company didn't give me any invoice, even though they have a cash dispenser machine. They scammed me out of $183 This isn't the first time they've wanted to scam me. It's better to go to Topeka or Kansas City, where you can give your metal twice the price and no one will fool you like these people. The only normal one there is the girl in the window.

First time customer. It would be hard to find a more pleasant person than the nice woman that guided me through the recycling process. She was pleasant, patient, and helpful throughout. Lawrence overall has a base of friendly people, and SMI personnel were no exception.
