About Jim Newell's Iron & Metal

Jim Newell's Iron & Metal sits in Modesto, California, with a focus on scrap metal recycling work. The site takes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit unused or head to landfill. Sellers will find steel on the posted list of accepted categories. The yard self-reported these to the directory, which makes the list a working baseline for the standard intake mix on a given inbound day at the gate. On the practical side, the hours of operation aren't published in the directory, and a phone line and a website are on file. The directory captures what the yard publishes about its day-to-day schedule and contact channels, both as filed by the operator and surfaced to sellers planning an inbound visit to the gate. Sellers running a series of small drop-offs over a few weeks may want to ask the yard about its routine handling for repeat inbound. Some sites coordinate around recurring volume in a way that smooths both pricing and gate timing on a routine basis.
