What Our Customers Say

“I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your efforts on our scrap recycling program. A&W has done a great job integrating into our supply chain and helping us to drive continued improvement in this aspect of our business. We appreciate the service and relationship and look forward to continued growth in the future with you.”

Jay Eschrich, Executive VP/COO K&S Manufacturing

“A&W Iron & Metal has been in business since 1988 and an active member of the West Bend Area Chamber of Commerce since 1996. They are a valuable part of our community providing “green” recycling opportunities to local residents.

Many members of their staff volunteer their time to worthy non-profit organizations including the Boys & Girls Club, Friends of Abused Families and the West Bend Athletic Association. They work closely with area law enforcement to deter scrap theft and with the DNR to insure proper disposal of various waste materials.”

Craig Farrell, Executive Director West Bend Area Chamber of Commerce

“About 10-12 years ago, I stopped at A & W Iron and Metal and showed them the previous year t-shirt, to ask if they were interested in being a $350 sponsor for the annual KEYS 5 K Run/Walk. I was very happy when they replied yes, but then was surprised when they asked how much it would cost to become one of the corporate sponsors and have their name and logo at the top of the t-shirt. A & W shared the corporate sponsorship level for a few years and has become the main corporate sponsor the last few years.

The corporate sponsorship by A & W Iron and Metal has helped make the annual KEYS 5 K Run/Walk a huge financial success. It has been our pleasure to develop a partnership and develop an excellent relationship with a community minded business like A & W Iron and Metal. We greatly appreciate their financial support and the fact that A & W Iron and Metal forms a team each year for our main fundraising event.”

Jerry Gosa, Pesident Kewaskum Youth Scholarships, Inc. (KEYS, Inc,)

“A & W has been picking up our ferrous scrap from our Wauwatosa facility since September1, 2014. We have been very pleased with your service.

Your pick-ups are prompt, and conducted in a careful, worklike manor. When we need a pickup on short notice, you are able to do it. Your monthly rport is provided to us at the first of each month, and payments are always on time.

Our employees in the scrap yard who deal with the drivers, as well as our buyer who deals with your trader, find your staff both friendly and professional.

It has truly been a pleasure doing business with A & W, and we look forward to continued success together.”

Jacob Carter, Sr. Manager, Sourcing & Purchasing Briggs & Stratton Corp.
