About Ley Metals Recycling Inc
Ley Metals Recycling Inc is a scrap metal recycling operator working out of Springfield, Illinois in Sangamon County. The site serves walk-in sellers, small contractors, and anyone in the surrounding county who needs to turn scrap material into cash rather than haul it to landfill. Inbound material categories are not on file for this listing in our directory, and no specific intake set has been recorded. Posted hours are available for visitors to check. A phone line is on file, which together capture what the yard has filed with the directory about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for planning a visit before any drive over to the gate. 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.
