What happens when I arrive at Dahl & Groezinger with my car or truck filled with recyclable material?
When you arrive at our safe, clean, environmentally conscious facility, you will be asked to stop on the scale (just inside the 11th St. entrance). After a digital readout of the weight is recorded, you will be directed to the appropriate drop off area. We will unload your scrap for you, using a grapple, magnet, forklift, or Bobcat, depending on how the material is loaded. We also unload small amounts by hand. You will then be asked to return to the scale for an empty weight. After your empty weight is recorded, you pull off the scale and come in the office to receive payment.
