Franklin Surplus

About Franklin Surplus

Franklin Surplus is a scrap metal recycling site set up in North Vernon, Indiana in Jennings County. The business takes inbound scrap material from local sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. Looking at posted details, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing and hours of operation aren't recorded. These come from the yard's own filing with the directory and represent the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit. Sorting at the gate moves faster when materials are pre-separated at home — ferrous in one bin, copper in another, aluminum kept clean. The yard can post the load through faster, and sellers tend to land a cleaner intake price on each category. Pre-sorted loads also avoid the wait that comes when staff have to break a mixed bin apart on site before grading and weighing the material.
