About Hitchcock Scrap Iron & Metal

Operating in Canton, Illinois, Hitchcock Scrap Iron & Metal works as a scrap metal recycling business within Fulton County. The site processes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, providing a paid intake channel for material that would otherwise stay in garages or sheds. Specific accepted-material categories are not posted in the directory for this site, leaving the inbound list open in the entry. For practical details, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. The directory entry is the yard's own self-reported snapshot of how it handles inbound contact and posted schedule, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Sorting at the gate moves faster when materials are pre-separated at home — ferrous in one bin, copper in another, aluminum kept clean. The yard can post the load through faster, and sellers tend to land a cleaner intake price on each category. Pre-sorted loads also avoid the wait that comes when staff have to break a mixed bin apart on site before grading and weighing the material.
