About Index Industries
Index Industries is set up as a scrap metal recycling operation in Ontario, California. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers and contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for metal that would otherwise sit in a garage or shed. Inventory the operation takes in includes aluminum and copper, per the listing. These categories are the standard intake mix the yard self-reported to the directory as part of its public-facing entry, and serve as a working baseline for sellers planning a load. On the directory side, a phone line and a website are on file. Operating hours are posted in the directory entry, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over with a load. 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.
