About Mile High Brass
Mile High Brass is a scrap metal recycling site working out of Tempe, Arizona within Maricopa County. The business takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county and nearby towns. The directory does not carry an accepted-materials list for this yard at present, and no intake set has been filed. On the directory side, a phone line and an email contact are on file. Posted hours are available for visitors to check, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over with a load. Sellers running a series of small drop-offs over a few weeks may want to ask the yard about its routine handling for repeat inbound. Some sites coordinate around recurring volume in a way that smooths both pricing and gate timing on a routine basis.
