Trusted by Scrap Metal Dealers & Recycling Yard Managers
Hover over any testimonial to pause the stream. Real feedback from recycling leaders who eliminated scale house backlogs.
"We take in 300+ truckloads a week across our shredder and non-ferrous warehouse. Our SageDoer assistant audits every Scrap Dragon scale ticket, verifies tare deductions, and enters our daily LME pricing updates before our gates open at 7 AM. It saved us thousands in scale slip errors."
Brian Miller
General Manager, Buckeye Industrial Metals
"Filing crushed car VINs with NMVTIS and submitting daily transaction reports to LeadsOnline used to burn two hours of my evening. SageDoer’s assistant took over our title reporting, catalytic converter compliance logs, and vehicle junk certificates with zero errors."
Ramiro Gonzalez
Managing Partner, Lone Star Auto Recyclers
"Dispatching 60+ roll-off containers for industrial machine shops and demo contractors was pure chaos. SageDoer’s virtual assistant tracks bin drops, schedules pulls in Samsara, and pairs scale tickets to commercial customer billing in cieTrade seamlessly."
David Kowalczyk
VP Operations, Keystone Salvage & Scrap
"We used to pay $30/hr for an in-house scale clerk who struggled to match container shipping bills of lading to foundry settlement weight sheets. With SageDoer at $6/hour, our outbound mill reconciliations are always updated, and the free Project Manager audits all data deliverables flawlessly."
