Rathe'a metal recycling center is awesome. It is conveniently located close to Burlington and it's hours are very business friendly. . I love that I am able to recycle my old metal waste that my father has collected for 60 years. Added bonus, I get to converse with Regina on the intercom who operates the the weigh scales and checks you in and out. Great service w great people. It doesn't get any better than that.

They paid me $615 more than the dealership offered me for trade in! I talked to Ben, got the offer and he picked the car up less than 2 hours later. You cannot get more efficient than that!
