Scrap sellers in and around San Francisco, California can route material through seven listed yards, each offering a paid drop-off point for inbound copper, aluminum, steel, and related categories. The accepted-material data in San Francisco's directory is sparse — yards in the listings generally do not file a formal intake list, so each yard's individual page and a phone call are the working tools for sellers. Across San Francisco, the scrap intake setup spans general-scrap, auto-salvage, and industrial-steel routes, giving sellers paid drop-off paths for whatever mix of material they're moving.
