About Western Auto Recycling
Western Auto Recycling works in the auto salvage and parts space out of Commerce City, Colorado. The site takes inbound material from local sellers and small contractors, and operates as a paid outlet for scrap metal across the surrounding county and nearby towns. Material acceptance details are not published for this yard in our directory entry at the time of the latest snapshot. For practical details, day-to-day hours are recorded and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. 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.
