About Smith's Scrap Yard
Scrap sellers in and around Hazard, Kentucky can take material to Smith's Scrap Yard, a scrap metal recycling business in Perry County. The site works with walk-in sellers and small contractors, and provides a paid intake channel for scrap metal across the surrounding county. Inbound category data is not recorded for the yard in the current directory listing, with the entry left open. The hours of operation aren't published in the directory. A phone line appears in the listing, which together capture what the yard has filed with the directory about its inbound contact and posted schedule, and give sellers a working baseline for planning a visit before any drive over to the gate. Clean material posts faster and prices better — copper free of insulation, aluminum without steel attached, iron sorted from cast. Sellers spending a few minutes on prep at home tend to land a working price quote at the gate without much back-and-forth at intake on the day.
