About Rusty Rooster Recycling

The scrap metal recycling site Rusty Rooster Recycling runs in Louisville, Kentucky, taking inbound material from sellers and contractors. The business provides a paid drop-off point for scrap metal that would otherwise sit unused, and acts as a turn-around point for local salvage volume. Accepted-material categories are not on file in our directory for this yard, and the listing field remains open at present. On the contact and schedule side, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing and day-to-day hours are recorded. 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.
