About Alter Recycling

Alter Recycling runs a scrap metal recycling operation in Bartonville, Illinois in Peoria County. The site takes in scrap material from local sellers and contractors, providing a paid outlet for metal that would otherwise end up in landfill or sit in a garage. We do not have a current accepted-materials list on file for the yard's inbound intake at the time of this snapshot. On the operations side, posted hours are available for visitors to check, while a phone line and an email contact are on file. 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. 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.
