About Alco Iron & Metal Co
Scrap activity in San Leandro, California includes Alco Iron & Metal Co, which handles scrap metal recycling for inbound sellers. The site takes material from walk-in sellers and contractors across the surrounding county, providing a paid intake channel for inbound scrap metal volume. Inbound material categories are not on file for this listing in our directory, and no specific intake set has been recorded. Looking at posted details, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing and operating hours are posted in the directory entry. These come from the yard's own filing with the directory and represent the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers 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.
