About American Scrap Metal Services

American Scrap Metal Services sits in Alsip, Illinois, with a focus on scrap metal recycling work. The site takes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit unused or head to landfill. The accepted-categories field on this listing is currently empty in our directory, with no inbound types specified. On the operations side, day-to-day hours are recorded, while a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. These details come straight from what the yard filed with the directory and reflect the channels open to inbound sellers, which gives a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
