About United Alloys & Metals Inc
In Santa Fe Springs, California, United Alloys & Metals Inc is a scrap metal recycling business that takes inbound material from sellers and contractors. The site offers a paid intake channel for scrap metal that would otherwise sit in garages, sheds, or the back lots of small construction outfits. Specific accepted-material categories are not posted in the directory for this site, leaving the inbound list open in the entry. For practical details, the hours of operation aren't published in the directory and a phone line is on file. The directory entry is the yard's own self-reported snapshot of how it handles inbound contact and posted schedule, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Some yards require ID at intake, and a few keep separate records for ferrous versus non-ferrous drop-offs. Sellers planning a first visit should confirm what the gate needs on a phone call so the paperwork side is sorted before driving over with a load.
