About San Benito Recycling
San Benito Recycling is a scrap metal recycling site set up in Hollister, California within San Benito 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. Public records do not list which material types this site accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. Posted hours are available for visitors to check. A phone line is 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.
