Scrap Yards in Connecticut

Connecticut has 72 scrap yards listed across 40 cities and towns, with the densest coverage in New Haven, bridgeport, and Waterbury. The state's economy of aerospace and defense manufacturing, insurance, and pharmaceuticals shapes what comes through the gate, from construction and demolition metal to industrial offcuts and end-of-life vehicles. 2 of these listings name lead, auto parts, electronics, or precious metals among accepted materials; many listings do not name materials at all, so call ahead if you have something other than common metals. Price pages on this site show a daily US average estimate per grade. Connecticut yards set their own rates around that figure based on volume, prep, and freight, so treat it as a baseline and confirm by phone.
