About McAfee Recycling
McAfee Recycling runs an auto salvage and parts operation in Portland, Indiana within Jay County. The site takes in scrap material from local sellers and contractors, providing a paid outlet for metal that would otherwise end up in landfill or sit in a garage. There is no accepted-materials list on file for this site in our directory at present, and the field remains open. Looking at posted details, a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing and operating hours are posted in the directory entry. 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. Auto sellers should expect the site to ask about drained fluids before intake — oil, coolant, fuel — and about whether batteries and catalytic converters need to come out separately. A phone call to the yard confirms what prep is needed and whether the operator handles that work in-house or expects the seller to arrive with the vehicle prepped.
