About Can-Dew Recycling
Among the scrap metal recycling sites in Covington, Kentucky is Can-Dew Recycling, which takes inbound material from local sellers. The business provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and serves walk-in sellers along with small contractors. No accepted-materials list appears under this yard's directory entry at present, and no inbound categories are recorded. On the contact and schedule side, a phone line and an email contact appear in the listing and posted hours are available for visitors to check. The directory captures these two data points from the yard's own filing as part of its public-facing snapshot, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning an inbound visit to the gate. 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.
