Scrap Yards in Delaware

Delaware has 16 scrap yards listed across 10 cities and towns, with the densest coverage in Dover, New Castle, and Newark. The state's economy of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and finance shapes what comes through the gate, from construction and demolition metal to industrial offcuts and end-of-life vehicles. 0 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. Delaware yards set their own rates around that figure based on volume, prep, and freight, so treat it as a baseline and confirm by phone. Use the city list below to find a yard near you, check the hours before you drive, and carry a photo ID, since yards record every sale and state law often requires it.
