About Marick Incorporated
Marick Incorporated sits in Des Moines, 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. Material handled at the site, per public records, includes aluminum, brass, copper, and lead. The list reflects the yard's own self-reported intake mix as filed with our directory, and gives sellers a clean working baseline for what fits inbound flow on a typical day at the gate. Per the directory, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Industrial sellers should phone the yard with material spec and approximate tonnage so the site can quote per-ton intake and confirm gate handling. Heavier loads often need scheduling around the yard's own equipment, which the call sorts in advance and pins down a working price for the inbound at the same time.
