Was bringing a ford escape for junk and they tried saying there was no exhaust or cats haha and tried offering 250 when indeed there was an exhaust and a complete vehicle. Brought to Morgan highway junkyard and got the 400 for the vehicle. Watch this place. Definitely sneaky.

The workers were friendly and helpful, clean yard, inbound and outbound scales with functional lights to tell you to stop or go. I was 150 miles from home and if I’m ever in the area again I will stop back and use them if I have scrap metal!

Get to the gate with a dump trailer at 220 on a Saturday and it’s closed. Called and asked if they were using the one scale and lady tells me they close at 230 then proceeded to tell me it was 238 at time of call………. It’s 235 at the moment. If they can’t tell time I’m sure they can’t count…… good luck

Personally one of the best scrapyards that I have ever gone to we're going to very professional and very clean yard very clean yard and they are very fair in their weights and what they pay. I have been coming here since the 1st day they opened and I've always been treated fairly

Well the wait wasn't too long to get into the yard, but the wait getting into the office for payment was a little longer. All in all it wasn't too bad. Prices seemed reasonable.

Always happy after dropping scrap off here however, the front office could maybe use some help you make business move faster. The lady at the front desk is very nice, although, it seems like there's too much for just one person! Always reccomend them tho when someone asks for a good scrapyard. Thanks guys, you've helped my family through more hard times than you know!

Great place to sell scrape. Large lot to turn around in. NO MUG to drive thru. Friendly personnel to deal with. Recommend HIGHLY.

It's was a good trip to see the understand of collecting unwanted junk. I had a small load and access was confusing but made it through with little "what do I do? ". It is easier than thought. Just get out of vehicle and ask. People very helpful. Clunk your junk to Weitman's scrap yard.

This is one of the number one scrap yards in the area. The employees are exceptional and go well above and beyond to meet your needs. Always willing to offer help and knowledge whatever you have to recycle. They have the highest prices in Luzerne Lackawanna and any other County in the area. They're open 7 days a week and have accommodating hours.

Quick and organized. I brought my old car in and got a very fair price for it and it was easy to do the title.

I’m a 17 year old kid trying to make some extra cash. I came in with 30 pounds of aluminum and 140 pounds of copper. The guy showed me where to drop the aluminum, and then I went back on the scale to weigh again. I backed off the scale and dropped the copper where I was told. The pile was clearly miscellaneous metal and I asked him again. He assured me it was that pile. I went to collect my money, and the guy told me I did it wrong, so I told him that his employee told me where to drop it. The lady behind the counter told her that I had 140 pounds of copper and she would make it right. The guy had 3 yard employees come pick up the copper. Some of it was deep in the pile and they missed it. Instead of my 140 pounds worth of copper, I only got 60 pounds. The lady that told me that she would make it right failed to do so and told me that it was a mistake on their end. I understand mistakes happen, I just expect company’s like that to own up to their mistakes. It was a poor customer experience and I do not foresee myself coming back.

Brought my aluminum cans in and when I went to go pick my money up they deducted $5.00 because I had a a couple of tuna fish cans in the pile. Do you know how many aluminum cans it takes to get $5.00. Really a couple of tin cans and you deduct that much. Done with Weitsman!
