Scrapyards.io lists 201 scrap yards in Indiana spread over 91 cities, and Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, and Evansville account for the largest share of them. What Indiana yards see day to day reflects the local mix of automotive manufacturing, steel, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture: building and plumbing copper, aluminum from vehicles and cans, and steel from construction and equipment. Accepted materials are shown where the yard has listed them: 21 Indiana listings name lead, auto parts, electronics, or precious metals, and many name none, so call ahead before you load up. Price pages on this site show a daily US average estimate per grade. Indiana yards set their own rates around that figure based on volume, prep, and freight, so treat it as a baseline and confirm by phone. Use the city list below to find a yard near you, check the hours before you drive, and carry a photo ID, since yards record every sale and state law often requires it.
