About Dimco-Dimco
Dimco-Dimco runs in Dekalb, Illinois, taking on industrial steel and scrap work for individual sellers and contractors. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for metal across the surrounding county. Specific accepted-material categories are not posted in the directory for this site, leaving the inbound list open in the entry. On the operations side, day-to-day hours are recorded, while a phone line and a website 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. 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.
