Good morning and Happy Monday again! I wanted to post a small factory clean out job River Valley Recycling did last week. Customer had called 2 other scrap yards, and had not received a call back - actually sells his scrap to both them on and off. One of his employees that scraps with River Valley Recycling, suggested he call River Valley Recycling, and not only did a live person answer the phone, took down all of the details, and arranged pickup for the next day!

Call River Valley Recycling today, we have the equipment, we have the manpower, and we get the job done in a timely manner!
