What some of customers say
Thank-you so much for 10 years of excellent service. Your staff are all so nice.

On behalf of the CatWalk Trust, I would like to thank Sims Pacific Metals for the monthly donation made to the CatWalk Trust towards supporting our goal to fund research to find a cure for Spinal Cord Injury. ‘Hoofin’It’ and money raised from the recycling of horse shoes is such a brilliant idea and your donations to support and advance world-class research to find a cure is truly appreciated. Thank you so much.
CatWalk Trust
A really positive mention for the driver that came to the site today. He was wearing the correct PPE and stopped the crane when I entered his work area to talk with him. He was very mindful of his surroundings and what he was doing and the potential risk to others. I really appreciated his professionalism.

Many thanks for this email – and then the great service I had yesterday. I was so nervous about where to go to and what to do, but everyone I came in contact with was awesome and super friendly, so just wanted to say a BIG thanks! Also absolutely thrilled with the $$$, had no idea our scraps would be worth so much – now on the hunt for more LOL. Thanks again!
