About Diversified Demolition
Among the scrap and recycling outfits in Lexington, Kentucky is Diversified Demolition, which handles demolition and salvage work. The site processes inbound material from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. Per public records, the hours of operation aren't published in the directory and a phone line appears in the listing. The directory carries these as the yard's own self-reported snapshot of its inbound schedule and contact mix, and surfaces them as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit 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.
