About Berco Recycling
Berco Recycling operates as a scrap metal recycling site in Bell Gardens, California within Los Angeles County. It is one of the local intake points for individual sellers, contractors, and small haulers who need to move scrap material rather than send it to a landfill. Public records do not list which material types the business accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. On the contact front, a phone line and an email contact are on file. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
