About Silrec Corp
Working out of Lexington, Kentucky, Silrec Corp handles scrap metal recycling for sellers across the surrounding county. The site processes inbound scrap material from walk-in sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers who need a paid outlet for metal. Which materials this yard takes on a given day is not published in our directory under the current entry. Hours of operation aren't recorded. A phone line and a website are on file, 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. 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.
