About Grapperhaus Metal Co
The scrap metal recycling site Grapperhaus Metal Co runs in Highland, Illinois, taking inbound material from sellers and contractors. The business provides a paid drop-off point for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. Posted intake categories are currently blank on this listing in our directory, with no specific materials recorded. Looking at posted details, a phone line and a website appear in the listing and posted hours are available for visitors to check. 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.
