About Midwest PGM Recycling Center
Scrap activity in Cedar Lake, Indiana includes Midwest PGM Recycling Center, which handles scrap metal recycling for inbound sellers. The site takes material from walk-in sellers and contractors across the surrounding county, providing a paid intake channel for inbound scrap metal volume. The yard has not filed an accepted-materials list with the directory at this time, leaving the intake set unspecified. On the directory side, a phone line and an email contact are on file. Day-to-day hours are recorded, which together represent the yard's published-facing contact and schedule mix as filed with us, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over with a load. 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.
