About Courtney Car Crushing & Scrap
Courtney Car Crushing & Scrap is a scrap metal recycling site working out of Ottumwa, Iowa in Wapello County. The business takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county and nearby towns. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. On the contact front, a phone line and an email contact are on file. Posted hours are available for visitors to check, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over. 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.
