About Surface Manufacturing CO
Scrap sellers in and around Capron, Illinois can take material to Surface Manufacturing CO, an industrial steel and scrap business within Boone County. The site works with walk-in sellers and small contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal across the surrounding county. Inventory the operation takes in includes aluminum, brass, copper, and lead, per the listing. These categories are the standard intake mix the yard self-reported to the directory as part of its public-facing entry, and serve as a working baseline for sellers planning a load. Looking at posted details, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing and day-to-day hours are recorded. 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. 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.
