About Louis Padnos Iron & Metal Co

Louis Padnos Iron & Metal Co is a scrap metal recycling site set up in Grand Rapids, Michigan in Kent County. The business takes inbound scrap material from local sellers, contractors, and salvage haulers, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options in the surrounding county. Accepted material categories are not recorded for this yard in the current directory entry, with the field left open. Hours of operation aren't recorded, and a phone line and a website appear in the listing. These come straight from the yard's filing with the directory and represent the inbound-facing snapshot of how the site handles contact and posted hours, surfaced as a working baseline for planning a visit. 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.
