About Chico Scrap Metal South

Chico Scrap Metal South operates as a demolition and salvage site in Durham, California in Butte 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. Sellers can bring in aluminum for processing at the site, per the categories the yard filed with our directory. The list runs the typical inbound mix and serves as a working baseline when planning a load, though the printed categories are inevitably less granular than day-to-day reality. Hours of operation aren't recorded, and a phone line, a website, and an email contact are on file. These come straight from the yard's filing with the directory and represent the inbound-facing snapshot of how the site handles contact and posted hours, surfaced as a working baseline for planning a visit. Contractors with structural steel or larger industrial loads should phone the yard to confirm intake conditions and per-ton scrap pricing. The same call sorts a delivery slot at the gate and any equipment the site needs to handle the inbound, which keeps the drop-off on a known timeline rather than waiting at the scale on arrival.
