About America Metal Export Inc
America Metal Export Inc is a scrap metal recycling site set up in Alhambra, California within Los Angeles County. The business takes inbound scrap material from local sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry. A phone line and a website are on file, which together capture what the yard has filed with the directory about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for planning a visit before any drive over to the gate. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
