About Lakes Iron & Metal, Inc

Scrap and salvage activity in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota runs through a handful of intake points, and Lakes Iron & Metal, Inc is one of them. The site works in the industrial steel and scrap space and takes inbound material from local sellers, contractors, and people clearing out a property. Posted intake categories include aluminum and copper. The list is what the yard filed with the directory as its standard inbound mix, which sellers can plan a load around when sorting at home before any drive over to the gate. On the contact front, a phone line, a website, and an email contact appear in the listing. Day-to-day hours are recorded, which together form the yard's published-facing schedule and channel mix as filed with the directory, and give sellers a working sense of how to reach the site before driving over. Industrial sellers should phone the yard with material spec and approximate tonnage so the site can quote per-ton intake and confirm gate handling. Heavier loads often need scheduling around the yard's own equipment, which the call sorts in advance and pins down a working price for the inbound at the same time.
