About McNichols Scrap Iron & Metal Co
Working out of Hamtramck, Michigan, McNichols Scrap Iron & Metal Co 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. Public records do not list which material types the business accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. Practical details: operating hours are posted in the directory entry, and a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. Both data points are pulled from the yard's filing with the directory and reflect the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a 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.
