Ozi Metal Recycling, Port Charlotte FL

SCAM! DO NOT COME HERE, had over 500 POUNDS of aluminum MEASURED AND WEIGHED, GAVE US 180 POUNDS AT 18 CENTS A POUND! Go ANYWHERE else.

Worked like a normal scrap yard until we tried to get payment. They suddenly pretended not to know English and refused to pay out for the scrap.

Definitely NOT Allied Recycling. This place has gone further and further down hill. I was going to Allied for years without issue. Ive been to OZI 3 times and its always a mess. Long lines. 45 minute waits. Says they open at 8.8: 07 doors are shut and no one on site. A joke.

I had a bad feeling the first time I visited this business.on my second trip, I did my due diligence and went through the trouble of weighing out all of my scrap ahead of time. Sure enough, this company's scale was wayyy off and when confronted there was nothing offered to me, no apology, no mention of having his scale recertified or any sort of regret in his tone. If you are looking for a decent place to recycle your scrap DO NOT go to OZI Metal Recycling.

Weigh your stuff before hand. Bunch of scammers working here. Took a whole roof of a shed aluminum and he tells me it’s only 20lbs. They need investigated for fraud

I was second in line as someone was already unloading. After him I got weighed and unloaded. Pulled back around and guy running the place was gone. Had to wait 1/2 hour for him to get back. Meanwhile trucks are lined up. He got back and took another 10 minutes to get it together. My first snd last time going there

Hi guys. It's been a year since I've been here bc I moved out of state back to CO. I'm sorry I didn't come say good-bye so I figured that I could give y'all a good review. I really like the guys here nice, very helpful & after you right in & out going into the office doesn't take all that long. My two concerns are the scale was much easier when you could continue to drive straight through but that was blocked off at least for 6 months & my 2nd concern is that they're always in the phone. I mean he does his job he gets it done he's nice he's courteous and you're in and out but he's talking on the phone and you don't know if they're talking to you or not I mean other than the different language but you know when you're just kind of chillin waiting then he speaks & you're like what but he's talking to the people on the phone ‍️. Those are the only two reasons why you guys got a four star other than that you guys are great and I really would have loved to given you a five star but I have to be honest so.but I thank you guys for everything and when I come back out there to live again one day I'll definitely be coming to see y'all. God Bless Nayome.

Place is straight up a dangerous place to unload. I had to unload my steel while on the scale with people waiting. Had to lift everything over the sidewall of my truck because of my position on the scale. Then I finish and go around, there was a half buried piece of sheet aluminum in the "path" that scratched my truck down the whole side. I only asked the guy to please cut the piece out so someone else doesn't scratch their truck again and I got a bunch of back talk. I really think there will be a major accident there and it will shut down soon.

Advertised they are open until 5 on Saturday. Arrived at 2 and were closed, now have to unload what was just loaded…NOT PLEASED with this ragtag operation…wish I could give less than one star

Absolutely fantastic upgrades.now the best software is on point. Everything is being done to confirm the seller's and the material received.
Keeping you on track. Pleasure working with a complete system.

Well I pulled up and immediately I noticed it was under new management. I was told the scale was broken so I had to guess how much weight I had. Are you kidding me? What should have been a $300.00 scrap run. I walked out with only $150 go else where you'll be disappointed

These crooks dont conduct proper business ethics. They forget that they are the costumer. They never have enough help, treat regular visitors with disrespect, and above all, I put a five pound dumbbell on the small scale, it registered 1 pound. I made them correct my ticket, and I was trespassed, for standing up for what is right. Stay aware!

Great to do business with. They are up to the point and your Recycling is worth the time to drive there

Worst Experience, lowest prices. Never Coming here ever again. Only came here cause Trademark Metals Recycling was closed, but now I know I’ll wait the next day to go to Trademark Metals Recycling instead of coming here. This place Should be Closed down for good.

Gave me a good reason to start going there again. The previous owners were rip offs. The owners before them however, we're great people also. But yes, the new owner now? Awesome.

Ned is a great guy! He has really cleaned the place up. I will continue to do business with them!

I bring scrap metal twice a month for over a year and never had an issue with them. I always check the prices in the area and they always keep their prices fair. Nice people.

This place is a joke, guy leaves area so everyone gets tired of waiting and he profits. Go somewhere else. Shady business owner.
