About Healthy Colorado Youth Alliance
Healthy Colorado Youth Alliance works in the scrap metal recycling space out of Denver, 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. Specific accepted-material categories are not posted in the directory for this site, leaving the inbound list open in the entry. On the directory side, a phone line is on file. The hours of operation aren't published in the directory, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over with a load. Sorting at the gate moves faster when materials are pre-separated at home — ferrous in one bin, copper in another, aluminum kept clean. The yard can post the load through faster, and sellers tend to land a cleaner intake price on each category. Pre-sorted loads also avoid the wait that comes when staff have to break a mixed bin apart on site before grading and weighing the material.
