About Curry Ed
Curry Ed provides scrap metal recycling services in Saint Elmo, Illinois. The business takes inbound material from walk-in sellers, small contractors, and salvage haulers across the surrounding county, and operates as a paid outlet for inbound scrap metal volume. Material acceptance details are not published for this yard in our directory entry at the time of the latest snapshot. On a practical level, the hours of operation aren't published in the directory and a phone line appears in the listing. The directory carries what the yard chose to publish about its day-to-day inbound flow and contact channels, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Sellers running a series of small drop-offs over a few weeks may want to ask the yard about its routine handling for repeat inbound. Some sites coordinate around recurring volume in a way that smooths both pricing and gate timing on a routine basis.
