About PADNOS Front Street Metals
PADNOS Front Street Metals is a scrap metal recycling site set up in Grand Rapids, Michigan within 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. Material acceptance details are not published for this yard in our directory entry at the time of the latest snapshot. Per the directory, day-to-day hours are recorded and a phone line appears in the listing. Both data points come from the yard's own filing and represent what the site has published about its inbound schedule and contact options, which gives sellers a working baseline for planning a visit. Some yards require ID at intake, and a few keep separate records for ferrous versus non-ferrous drop-offs. Sellers planning a first visit should confirm what the gate needs on a phone call so the paperwork side is sorted before driving over with a load.
