Cook's Scrap Iron & Metal

About Cook's Scrap Iron & Metal

Cook's Scrap Iron & Metal sits in Algona, Iowa, with a focus on industrial steel and scrap work. The site takes inbound scrap from local sellers and small contractors, and acts as a paid outlet for material that would otherwise sit unused or head to landfill. Accepted-material categories are not on file in our directory for this yard, and the listing field remains open at present. Posted hours are available for visitors to check, and a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. These come straight from the yard's filing with the directory and represent the inbound-facing snapshot of how the site handles contact and posted hours, surfaced as a working baseline for planning a visit. Phone quotes give a working number, but the final intake price is what the yard pays at the gate after material is weighed and graded. A pre-visit call still gets sellers in the right ballpark and confirms the day's posted scrap rates. Posted online rates tend to be a guide to recent activity rather than a firm commitment for the day, and the gate price is the one that lands on the receipt.
