Potomac Metals

My husband has used Potomac Metals for car parts on a couple of occasions. When I told him that I wanted to dispose of some of the metal store fixtures from a boutique I had once owned, he suggested we take them to Potomac Metals.
What you would imagine would be a low tech kind of place is actually very high tech. They had us weigh our vehicle with all of the metal in it and then weigh it again once we had removed everything. They captured my husband’s license plate and driver’s license (so that if we go back again, we will already be in the system), provided us with a receipt stating how much they would pay and then we scanned the bar code and received our money through an ATM like system.
They have weekend hours and are very quick and thorough. It was a very busy place but everything seemed to move along very smoothly.

This company recycles all metals and pays you for scrap. A great service for the environment. But make sure you separate your scrap into types, weigh it, and check pricing on the web and at competitors. It may help to bring a scale with you and write down weights and price ranges. Then you can make an informed decision to sell it.
