About Star Metals
Working in Homestead, Florida, Star Metals is a scrap metal recycling site listed in our directory. Listings like this help sellers find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than ringing around half a dozen places to find one that takes their volume. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. Looking at posted details, a phone line is on file and the hours of operation aren't published in the directory. These come from the yard's own filing with the directory and represent the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit. Phone quotes give a working number, but the final intake price is what the yard pays at the gate after material is weighed and graded. A pre-visit call still gets sellers in the right ballpark and confirms the day's posted scrap rates. Posted online rates tend to be a guide to recent activity rather than a firm commitment for the day, and the gate price is the one that lands on the receipt.
