Won’t be supporting this place anymore. Been taking scrap back here since I was a little kid, never had any issues and always liked the place until last time. We took a full trailer of metal back totaling a measly 70 dollars. The check was mistakenly misplaced so we went back to see if they could void it and write a new check, the lady (Lori) says that there will be a $35 stop payment charge meaning the new check would be written for less than 40 dollars. We decided to keep looking for the check in hopes that we could still get the full amount if found. Lori calls us back the next day stating that she placed the stop payment on the check and I can drive up there to get the remaining 38 dollars… not even worth our trip to town. Let alone the time spent to load the trailer, unload the trailer, etc. Scrap isn’t worth crap anymore , especially if you take it to Miechiel’s. They must need that money more than we do.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Spent the day pulling parts off of cars and once I got to the counter, they wanted to know which parts came off of what cars. First of all, red flag for a U-pull yard because it doesn’t matter, a mirror is a mirror, a seat is a seat, and hood is a hood and etc. Prices should be the same for every car. Then, they compared pricing of the parts that I pulled to other yards (not U-pull yards, but like those listed on car-part that already have the parts pulled and ready to go on the shelf) and wanted to charge the same value. For all I know, they may have been checking eBay prices. For example, any headlight you pull at a u-pull yard is around $30. Here, it’ll cost you around $135. Don’t believe me? Check out the price list on US Auto Supply Sterling Heights, U-Pull Pontiac or even Ryan’s Pick-a-Part in Detroit. Then the guy at the counter wanted to give me an attitude when I questioned the pricing and says he doesn’t want to give me pricing on the rest of the parts that I pulled “because I will not like the pricing.” He said well what kind of pricing are you looking to get? I said U-Pull pricing. $30 for a head light: He then replied back “well this isn’t a U-Pull yard, well it is, but it isn’t for pricing”. I literally laughed and walked out. This place is an absolute joke. If you are looking for U-pull yard pricing, this is not the place. For the prices they charge, they should be on the shelf, tagged, cleaned, and ready to go. To top it off, they don’t even have wheelbarrows to carry all of the parts you pulled back up to the office. I will never go back and will not recommend this place to people that I know. I suggest everyone to go to US Auto Supply of Sterling Heights, U-Pull Pontiac, or Ryan’s Pick-a-Part in Detroit before considering Miechiels. Again, check out their posted prices as they are quite reputable unlike the scammers at Miechiels.
