About Fat Cat Converters

Scrap and salvage activity in Merced, California runs through a handful of intake points, and Fat Cat Converters is one of them. The site works in the scrap metal recycling space and takes inbound material from local sellers, contractors, and people clearing out a property. The accepted-categories field on this listing is currently empty in our directory, with no inbound types specified. Day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory. 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. Sorting at the gate moves faster when materials are pre-separated at home — ferrous in one bin, copper in another, aluminum kept clean. The yard can post the load through faster, and sellers tend to land a cleaner intake price on each category. Pre-sorted loads also avoid the wait that comes when staff have to break a mixed bin apart on site before grading and weighing the material.
