About American Metal & Iron Inc.

American Metal & Iron Inc. Handles scrap metal recycling out of San Jose, California, drawing material from sellers across the surrounding county. The site processes inbound scrap from walk-in sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers who need to turn metal into cash rather than haul it home. The directory entry omits a specific list of accepted materials for this yard, leaving the intake set unrecorded. Hours of operation aren't recorded, and a phone line appears in the listing. These come straight from the yard's filing with the directory and represent the inbound-facing snapshot of how the site handles contact and posted hours, surfaced as a working baseline for planning a visit. 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.
