About Addison Metals
Elmhurst, Illinois hosts Addison Metals, a scrap metal recycling site that serves walk-in sellers and small contractors. Listings like this exist to help sellers find a paid drop-off point for scrap material rather than burning a Saturday calling around to find one. There is no accepted-materials list on file for this site in our directory at present, and the field remains open. The directory entry shows a phone line appears in the listing, and day-to-day hours are recorded. Both data points reflect what the yard has filed about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for how to reach the site before any drive over with a load. 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.
