About Tin Man Recycling
Tin Man Recycling sits in Phoenix, Arizona, with a focus on demolition and salvage work. The site takes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit unused or head to landfill. Public records do not list which material types the team accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. On the practical side, operating hours are posted in the directory entry, and a phone line, a website, and an email contact are on file. The directory captures what the yard publishes about its day-to-day schedule and contact channels, both as filed by the operator and surfaced to sellers planning an inbound visit to the gate. Demolition crews and contractors with structural steel should phone the yard to schedule drop-off and confirm the day's per-ton scrap rate. Walking through approximate tonnage and material spec on the call books gate timing and a quoted intake price together, which keeps the drop-off on a known timeline at the gate.
