About Scrap Haulers
Scrap Haulers is a scrap metal recycling operator working out of Gary, Indiana within Lake 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. This site has no posted material-acceptance list in the directory at this time, and the intake field remains blank. On the operations side, day-to-day hours aren't posted in the directory, while a phone line appears in the listing. These details come straight from what the yard filed with the directory and reflect the channels open to inbound sellers, which gives a working sense of how to reach the site before any drive over. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
