About 3rs Corporation
3rs Corporation is an auto salvage and parts operator working out of San Diego, California in San Diego County. The site serves walk-in sellers, small contractors, and anyone in the surrounding county who needs to turn scrap material into cash rather than haul it to landfill. Inbound category data is not recorded for the yard in the current directory listing, with the entry left open. On the contact and schedule side, a phone line is on file and day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory. The directory captures these two data points from the yard's own filing as part of its public-facing snapshot, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning an inbound visit to the gate. Posted scrap prices move with the daily commodity market, so the intake quoted on a given day can differ from prices listed online or quoted earlier in the week. A short phone call before a drop-off pins down the day's number, and sellers can also use the same call to ask about minimum-load expectations, since some yards quote different rates depending on the inbound size.
