Alpha Metals

About Alpha Metals

Our directory lists Alpha Metals as a scrap metal recycling business working out of Chicago, Illinois. Listings like this exist so sellers in the surrounding county can find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than guessing which yard will take what. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. Per the directory, day-to-day hours are recorded and a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Posted scrap prices move with the daily commodity market, so the intake quoted on a given day can differ from prices listed online or quoted earlier in the week. A short phone call before a drop-off pins down the day's number, and sellers can also use the same call to ask about minimum-load expectations, since some yards quote different rates depending on the inbound size.
